Now these guys are the true scourge of the National League, with their staff leading the league in hits batsmen, basking in the warm glow from the feel goodliness of the recent playoff contention.
The media love and benevolence in recognition of their two decades long struggle for relevance and the love affair that they have for Andrew McCutcheon (well deserved, it's begrudgingly noted) makes them akin to a more successful version of the Cubs amongst the media literati. Not only are we battling the Pittsburgh Pirates, aren't we in fact, battling the entire National League East, and how they represent the entire elitist East Coast of our great nation?
