Re: The next 19 games
Pitching will keep us in the Cubs games but we will need offense. Assuming Carlos is normal Carlos.
Lester always shuts us down. Voit will probably start against both Lester and Quintana. That means bad defense at 3B.
We go 1-2 in that series.
I like how we matchup against the Phillies. But their manager is way better than ours and I see bullpen being a factor. I say 1 - 2 there too. I think we win the Brewers series because they have to regress some and we usually play them well. 3 - 1 there. I think we win the Cleveland series 2 - 1. They aren't good. 1 - 2 against the Braves. 2 - 1 against DBacks who have an awful offense that will regress by time we play them.
Wooo 10-9...which is about where we are as a team.

Re: The next 19 games
I think the Cardinals play up or down to the level of the team they are facing...seem to have no consistency. So...11-8 sounds right to me; if we're lucky.

Re: The next 19 games
I just don't see how this team can get too far above .500 with the awful infield defense.
Ozuna is about to pass up everyone in fWAR...it climbed a whole +1.1 in just the past 15 games. Should be the leader by the end of the month at this rate. Would love to see Fowler finally climb out of his hole. He's decent against some of the starters we face in this stretch. But the other OFs are playing negative WAR baseball. Bader is breaking even after a hot start.

Watch them win or even sweep in spite of him being missing just to get our hopes up.Jocephus wrote:jose is out the whole cubs series though, right?
