If we are going to try to salvage this season, after today, the next 16 games for Philly could give us a chance to make a move:
4 @ Cubs
3 @ Brewers
3 vs Cardinals
3 @ Dodgers
3 @ Padres
Meanwhile, our schedule eases up from the what we have faced so far this month. (Of course, I still think Atlanta is the best team in the division so they may have a nice lead in 2 weeks.)
So the Phillies salvaged this tough stretch by winning their last 2 in SD. Their schedule now eases up considerably. We made up 1.5 games on them over these 16 games:
Nats 9-6
Braves 8-6
Mets 9-7
Phillies 8-8
