They've lost simply due to an unbalanced lineup, as constructed by Krivsky. Bruce will hopefully solve a lot of those problems.
Jocketty's upcoming goals:
* Add a couple of hitters who can, well, actually acquire lots of HITS, particularly in the clutch. Also try to make sure those players are good defenders
* Add a couple middle relievers who can get the needed outs
* Fill out the back of the starting rotation
I expect him to try to make some of his shrewd moves before long, and continue from there.
