I freak out because I saw this same pattern at the end of the season last year. Everybody, from Minaya down to the bat boy wasn't worried. They all thought it'd be a little slump, and before you knew it, they played themselves right into history.

The same things that doomed them last season are cropping up, namely a horrible bullpen that wipes out a good effort by the starting rotation, and a lackluster offense that can't carry them through like you would expect them to.
