I understand that we have the advantage...but it's not like we've been playing .500 ball since we cooled off.

 

Nobody plays .500 ball since their peak.

This is embarassing.

 

I really wish we had gotten buried by June...This would be a lot less painful to watch and we'd get a decent draft pick.

 

That's just ridiculous. WE'RE IN FIRST PLACE!

 

Remember the feeling, we won't end September that way.

yeah, because the other teams in this division are so good.

 

They don't have to be good, they just have to be less terrible than this team who struggles to get 2 runs a game. I hope I'm wrong, the 5 games against the Cards will probably be the decisive factor.

len just laid it out. if we play .500 the brewers have to go 17-12, the cardinals even better.

who besides, cinncy has in this division?

 

Cards have been 14-8 since Aug 6. Granted that's cherry picking since they lost 5 in a row to start August...but they have definitely been playing good enough to overtake us if we keep trending like we have been this month.

August records:

 

Cards are 14-13

Cubs are 12-15

Astros are 14-14

Brewers are 8-18

Reds are 17-10

Pirates are 17-12

 

So only the Cubs and Brewers are playing sub-.500 ball in August.

So the Reds and Rates are playing well. one game over .500 isn't playing all that well.

Nobody is saying that 1 game over is playing well...I'm only saying that it's better than playing 3 games under.

They keep that pace up, which I don't think they can. They won't pass us.
