Id imagine that how every team that gets to 95+ wins does it. And we have done well in tough road series. Home field in the playoffs could be huge to tilt that balance a little more towards the reds.
Looking good as of now tied for 1st place in all of the NL
Bingo..winning records against Yankees (2-1), STL (5-4), SF (4-3) and Atl (5-1) among the "winning teams" as well.Quote:

With 3 terrible teams in the division all 3 of the winning teams will have tons of wins vs bad teams by default.
That works both ways. With three very good teams at the top of the division, the other three are going to rack up a lot of division losses.Quote:

So the 3 contenders are going to play 27-27 against each other over the final 58 games after hurting each other for 27-27 the first 104. So by the top 3 teams playing so often they all will get slowed down playing even or one will take off and one or both will fade like the Mets who have been ran over by the top two in their division in 21 games.
