over the hump

“We’ve been able to go through the experiences of having success but not having success at the same time. I think to solidify the ultimate goal is to get over the hump and win. I think that will add a lot to our legacy. But as of right now, that story is kind of still untold.”

“And great opportunity to build a team that can move forward and become something, not better, but get over the hump a little bit here.”

But the Dodgers, again, couldn’t get all the way over the hump.

"I've got over the hump now of the Olympic cycle," he said.

But, he added, “It doesn’t feel stable, and it doesn’t feel like we are over the hump, and things could really change at any moment.”
