April: --16-7 --First place (3.5 games) May: --0-0 --Got the Cockies again tomorrow. Let's start fresh after a gay loss. How do you think the Dodgers will do in May? Schedule: @ COL: 2 @ CHI: 3 vs SF: 3 vs COL: 3 vs ARZ: 2 @ SD: 2 vs STL: 3 @ ARZ: 3 vs HOU: 3 vs MIL: 4
It'd be nice to take the next 2 from the Rockies. The Cubs are playing a little better but we gotta beat them up. Need a cushion going into the home series vs. SF because I don't want any direct hits from them knocking us out of first.
^I hope of course I'm wrong...but this team is winning and I can't be sure why. Baseball always levels things out.
I voted 11-15, but after looking at the schedule I can see us winning up to 18 games, although my gut says 15-13 is going to be the Dodgers' May record.
I could see us winning 18-19 games on the high end, but success is really contingent on two things: (1) the SPs have to keep it up and either (2)(a) Kemp and Dre need to continue their hot start or (b) the other hitters need to begin to produce more to compensate for any slowing down that Kemp and Dre experience.
