Yea, let's be honest here, that's what was the realistic goal heading into the season anyway. We weren't going to get first in a division with the Astros in it.
That team is better than us in every single aspect of the game and was better than us in every single aspect of the game before the season started.
But since this team went on a tear at the beginning of the year as opposed to posting their usual 6-18 April record, people in here had full on boners and thought we had a chance at the division.
I got a boner but still knew we weren't going to win the division.
