I was going to suggest 40 games (25%) as a barometer but that's heavily weighted against some of the weaker teams. The June schedule is tough with St.L, Cubs, LA, AZ, Mets. I'd say mid June is probably a good indicator of what to expect the rest of the way.

Winning record or .500 at the end of May?  Mid June? End of April?  Do they need to have a winning record or .500 good.  Is being in the Wild Card discussion time to believe?



Yes, I think it is early too.  But the naysayers are really pushing that agenda.






For me, the, "it's early," thought goes away when it's no longer too early.



I'm wondering if the, "naysayers pushing their agenda," somehow got into the head of the players and caused them to lose all these games.



I wish the, "yaysayers," would have pushed their agenda a little harder. It would probably have made this bad baseball team much better.



Those naysayers seem to ruin everything for the rest of us.
