Main Team One has got to be the worst team ever, said the Heir as he switches off the tabletop radio to the back of the Swank Lounge.  He's still waiting for the team to start hitting, here in mid July.  If they start hitting in late August, they may have a chance at a 20 game winning streak to put them just one game behind Baltimore by mid September.  But that's still too little too late.  If you're only starting to hit in August and September, it means you should have started doing so opening day back in April.  As cold as it sounds, injuries and climate change affecting team performance is no excuse.  It's time to start counting out Main Team One, and for the Heir to look forward to Lionel Holland's hopeful coaching chops for Brooklyn starting in late October.  Local teams making it in baseball is a lost cause.  Time to look forward post baseball, preferably with Brooklyn but possibly with the Giants to way outperform their last season of less than half.
