Fraught With Anxiety

Will the pitching hold up
How about their bats
Their bull pen has holes
Suppose someone is injured
And if they make it to the playoffs
will they advance beyond the first round
Why does the manager make some
pitching decisions-- they appear erratic,
not thought out, seat of his pants changes
This is a tough stretch for a fan
Just a few losses and we could be looking
at an early dismissal,
a season that ends with a fizzle,
 a slippery slope into oblivion
Oh I must not think these thoughts
lest they become a self fulfilling prophecy
