My main concerns are with the size but that the defense is so beat up. They've had SIX different players start at MLB this year. Seeing that the MLB calls the plays, thats a big issue.

The far larger issue is ball control. The offense eats up no time, whether successful in scoring or not. This obliterates a defense over time, and I think you're really starting to see the defense drag. They really needed the bye...
