I think the simple fact is, Holliday's performance since returning to AAA is a little disappointing considering what we'd come to expect from the young man. Expectations for him, which already were sky-high coming into the season, went through the roof when he started the year at .333/.482/.595. Nobody, and I mean nobody, expected him to perform as badly as he did during his short stint in the majors (.059/.111/.059). And since his return, his .252/.418/.429 line is well short of what he was doing before he got called up. So, it's natural to be a bit disappointed right now even though he's doing great for a 20-year old in AAA. Simply put, his early performance was absolutely demanding a call-up, and his current performance really isn't. It suggests he has more work to do in AAA before he's ready. And that's fine. Just not quite where some people thought he was. He's still in a great position as a 20-year old who is more than holding is own against much older and more experienced competition. -
To win the first two, sweeping any team is hard, but you are guaranteed a chance at it if you win the first two. -
If we increase attendance by 27% in line with the current trend, then we should end up with ~2.46MM (up from ~1.94MM) which is about equal to 2014. It seems like we could end up 150K short or exceed 2014 by 150k. If we do fall short, I’d bet part of the gap will be due to lower corporate sales (e.g., m&a moving HQs out of city; more corporates cancelling plans since 90s peak) and fewer games vs the Yankees and Red Sox. -

I’m a firm believer that when a weather forecast says 40 percent rain, I try to look at it as 60 percent chance of sun. -
I think this thread needs to take a Holliday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
