They’ve played a harder schedule than everyone else in the central except the Reds look at who they've played in recent weeks and then look at who they have coming up. it's like we're simultaneously saying the cardinals and brewers suck while also saying our schedule has been tough because we've played them a lot. They are over .500 “in recent weeks” however you want to define or put end points on so idk what you’re trying to say. They went like 7 or 8 of 10 vs the Reds, Marlins and White Sox. That’s all you can reasonably expect and even more than that. They have a chance to win a series tomorrow vs an okay team and the Cardinals and Brewers both do kinda suck.
