    I like the Pirates too but because Willie Stargell was dope as hell.

    Yes, but he is hardly the main reason for this disappointing run.

    In fact, we have right now basically the same group of guys who were playing really well just two weeks ago.

    That said,

    1) Perhaps the remaining guns got a little overworked trying to make up for the guys on the IL.
    2) Maybe the slump bug is hitting many key guys at the same time.
    3) Perhaps our AAAA team was overachieving unsustainably.

    Whatever the case, its more than 1 or 2 players. But hard times bring out the microscopes on players and surely a couple guys maybe gone in the weeks to come.

    My problem is, with 3 players out, I expect to lose the production of 3 players. I don't expect the entire team to take a shtt for 2 straight weeks.

    The hidden surname of your screenname (if those existed) wouldn't happen to also be major_major as well, would it? And do you perhaps looking strikingly like Henry Fonda in real life?

    Anyway, I think you've put it as succinctly and accurately as I've seen it put.
