1 month into 1974 and we have the 2nd best record in baseball at 17-6. I am 1st in ERA and hitting well enough to have a 4 game lead. Rudy May has become an ace 3-0 with a 1.59 ERA. Tom Bradley, Tom Walker and William Sheets all have ERA's under 3.00. Gerald Lewis is 2-0 with 6 saves and 0.00 out of the pen.
Offensively, Dave Cash is .356/.398/.425 and leading the league in hitting. Joe Torre is .296/.404/.432, Rudy Meoli is .300/.356/.438 and Jim Wynn is .289/.400/.386 to make up for Mickey Rivers and Al Bumbry each struggling at the plate.
I have stayed healthy and Dan Briggs is close to a call up from AAA. I think Ron Fairly is washed, he is my DH against righties and only hitting .200. I just shopped him and received no offers I would consider. I will ride things out a few more weeks and see where my team levels out. We aren't this good.
