Bulldog:

If the SP keep pitching well I expect a 60% clip if we stay healthy.
That is strong. .600 winning percentage. Strong.
We would end up 92-93 wins. SP would have to win 12 out of 20.

We are in a killer stretch. Will get us to mid season. Well above small sample size. The pitching cannot continue at this pace. Seven innings of giving up 2 or less runs in last 63 inning! Type pitching. Can’t continue. Just not physically or mentally achievable.


So…… we need to score about 4-5 per game to meet that increase in runs scored against.

How will we meet that challenge.
