These Fighting Frogs can't seem to figure out what they want to be in S290.

First a pedestrian 12-11 April, then a scorching mad 22-6 May, before another .500 month in June, and a losing month in July (11-14). The bullpen has been leaky with all of Tuivailala, Bedrosian, Chafin, Betances, and Edwin Diaz giving up their share of leads it seems.

The squad is 59-45, 3 games out of the division and 3.5 games up for the 2nd wild card. Hopefully the August/September version of this team will be more of a force.

The in-season acquisitions have been gold Derek Jeter (training to play 1B and mashing: .356/.414/.627 13 HR 37 RBI in 49 games), gold Rick Reuschel (3-3 4.30 ERA in 10 starts), and silver Frank Howard (.269/.296/.418 3 HR 5 RBI in 16 games as platoon DH).
