I was looking at the schedule too. It's very favorable. Also the end of the yr we play Colorado, Arizona and the Brewers. We just keep playing well maybe a miracle can happen?

The number I have in mind is get to 3 games back with 10 to go, then we have Arizona and Colorado for 3 games each. That'd be awfully fun.

Is this that thing that was talked about earlier in the season where the Phillies would have too many consecutive games without a day off?

He started the year terribly but he was good last year, has a great minor league track record, and has been very good in 7 starts since he came back up here. 3 ER or less in 6 of 7 starts and has gone at least 5 innings in each start and 6 or more in 5 of the 7 starts. His bounceback since he's come back up here has been very encouraging.

6 back with 40 to go now. Realistically we dont have a chance, but lets dream. 7 games this week against the 2 worst teams in the league. Need at the very least 5-2, 6-1 would be ideal though. We still have a lot of games against the phillies and braves and also play 2 of our last 3 series against the DBacks and Rockies, so it is certainly doable.

He's a solid #5 (maybe #4) on a playoff caliber team

Fangraphs gives us a 6.1% chance of winning the WC.
All things considered, that's pretty remarkable.

Didnt know where to put this but I was just reading a story on ESPN about what the HR record really is based off Stanton's comments about it being 61. That is largely due to his poor experience with Bonds last year right? I didnt think much of it when he first made the comments but the more i think of it the more that seems like something he said to try and piss Bonds off.

Jarlin Garcia back. Pretty big, not because he's a world beater, although he has been solid, but because it gets rid of the last man in the bullpen who typically stinks. In this case Javy Guerra DFA. Severino Gonzalez is the 26th man for the DH. Hopefully Wittgren can come back soon too but I havent heard anything on him.

Need both games today. Mets fucking suck and had opportunity after opportunity to beat the Dbacks last night but whatever. Can't rely on the mets to beat teams for us.

Good news is though after this week where the diamondbacks play the mets and giants, they have 9 straight against the dodgers and rockies, 6 of those against the dodgers. Marlins need to take care of their own business though or else it doesnt really matter.

Got home just in time to see Ichiro getting love in the dugout and Stanton and Ozuna to hit their HR's. Huge hits. Nola was the biggest impediment to sweeping today. Need to close this one out and take care of business in the 2nd game.
Straily deserves a lot of credit too, horrific first inning in the first game of a double header not only giving up 2 runs but throwing 30 something pitches. Settled down and went 6 somehow. Would be so cool to get back to .500 tonight.
