  9. Something not good
I'll give Mills the caveat that there is not a lot to work with here, but c'mon. Are bench guys really just going to jump in the place of the person they replace all season with no thought as to whether they actually fit there? This hurts my head. Not just because I don't like how Mills is handling the bench players, but those numbers are awful. Roy Halladay is just licking his chops, duly wondering if he'll throw a no hitter today...or maybe even a perfect game...


...Going with that thought: maybe Mills is just raising the white flag.
