Month of May

[McCarroll21]

Just kind of previewing the month. It looks to be pretty rough. Our "easy" games are on the road. We have a string of 17 games in 17 days (May 4-21). We have a series against three division leaders, and the Mets who are only a half game behind us right now.

I'll try to update this chart daily.

I gave up on keeping up with this. Too many teams to keep track of. Let this thing die. :D

Hey, people were saying that this first month was going to be brutal too. We lead the league by 0.5 after the first month. But, I think that if we can get a better guy than Redman, we can maybe have another really good month.

Of all the teams on JMac's chart, who would have thought that the Brewers would have the most wins?

[McCarroll21]

The first month wasn't so much as brutal, just important to win intradivsion games. This month is stacked from top to bottom, long streak of consecutive days with a game, playing four of the five best teams in the majors (outside of us).

Of all the teams on JMac's chart, who would have thought that the Brewers would have the most wins?Yeah. No doubt. I thought they'd be good, but not this good. They have benefited and taken advantage of playing against the Central (14-7) early on.

[nittanylionfan3]

Yeah, i suppose that you're right. This month has so many good teams, it will be really interesting.
