I think the 10 straight postseason losses have/will continue their toll on O’s fans . When doubts and pessimism about the team’s performance, the empty seats could still be issue when next October comes .
My hope is Rubenstein and Elias will conclude that status quo is NOT acceptable .
Look, I don't want to insult you or anybody else, but arguing that a 55 win team is the same as a 95 win team is moronic beyond belief.
It's just that simple.
So everything is great as long as we just make the playoffs? At what point is expecting to win a playoff game acceptable? Isn’t the goal to win a WS or is it to win more than 80 games?
If we’re just going to keep failing when it really matters in the playoffs then 55 wins or 95 wins doesn’t make a difference in the grand scheme of things. In fact, you could argue 55 is better for the long term.
Look up Alex Rodriguez's first and second year stats and then look up Mike Trout's first year stats. Not everyone produces right away. And sometimes those that do can come back down to earth -- Corbin Carroll being a case in point.
