[BostonCard]

Not just play two but win two
2-1.

O

And they're three back of Philadelphia for the wild card. On June 29, they were 12 games under .500, now they're four games under .500  They're the hottest team in baseball since June 23, they lead MLB in homers and runs scored in July, they've won 10 of 12, their pitching is coming back, the new guys are playing great, Austin Slater's a budding star and nobody wants to play the San Francisco Giants!

And/but we should try to get maximum value from the veterans and focus on rebuilding, right?  The upside is that the Giants get hot at the right time and take this momentum into October.  The downside is that this is a mirage that lasts just past the trade deadline, and the front office buys into it and decides not to trade for the future, but that the team reverts in The last couple months and winds up a few games out of the wildcard but without a rejuvenated farm system.
