Makakilo: Mixed emotions. I’m disappointed that an opportunity to reach the expanded playoffs was lost. I’m puzzled why hitting was so inconsistent, and how it will be fixed going forward. I’m confident that Mike Hazen executed opportunities to improve the team, mixed with a curiosity of how he will mold the team for next season, especially center field and the bullpen. I’m happy that talented young players were given playing time; the future looks bright because of the very strong farm system.
ISH95: Disappointing to say the least. The team was riding a streak of winning seasons, the core was intact, and Hazen had made some statement additions in the offseason.
