It's been a while since I've been excited about my team. It has stunk for years while I watched prospects advance (slowly) and waited for them to hit the bigs. It's been a while since I checked Rotoworld and the like on a daily basis.
Holy cow has that all changed this season. Bryant alone would be enough to excite anyone. And he was for a while. But then Correa came up and established himself as the best SS in the game. Schwarber got a cup of coffee that was more like a quadruple espresso with a side of cocaine. Then Sano got the call and spent two weeks daring pitchers to find a way to get him out.
On top of the rookies, Machado has stepped up his plate discipline and brought his offensive game to a new level, Kipnis is far and away the best 2b in the league and Archer and Odorizzi (when healthy) are cruising with ERA's under 3.
2015 has been a hell of a season so far. Watch out for the Pads in 2016!

And since you have shown yourself to be alive this week, why don't you take the time to add the real Correa and Infante to your team.
