Today is the start of our 13 game "easy stretch" that we have been waiting for. I for one am excited. I made a pre-season bet that the Mets would exceed 72.5 wins and a good showing here could really help push me closer to winning comfortably. Here is what scares me though, it's not so much an easy stretch as it is an equality stretch. Let's look at the teams records we face in the next 13 games:

Wins

Astros

39

83

Rockies
|
46
|
73

Marlins
|
55
|
67
|
Phillies
|
56
|
65
|
Mets
|
57
|
64
|
The Mets are the winningest of the bunch but I am afraid we can longer call games against the Marlins or Sillies easy anymore. The Marlins shellacked us in our last series and our records are all close enough as to be ostensibly the exact same. My prediction for the stretch: 10-3 (sweep the Astros and Sillies, take 3 from the Rockies, drop 2 to Miami).
