12-14 for May, which was the toughest month of the season in schedule terms. Next-worst month is July, which is only mildly negative.

For the season 28-24, Div 2nd Ovr 9th. Defense and pitching numbers all still looking excellent. Hitting numbers are ok. Our primary problem seems to be that we’re trapped in a division with a series contender [Seattle Reign] who put on a pretty amazing winning streak in May. We also dropped three to the Airhogs (another top seed from the NCW).

We’re 6½ GB, and the way Reign’s been playing we may not be able to catch him–he’s just running away with it in the first half.

Earliest projections, huge margin of error: Pessimistic Projection Model™ says 84 wins, Remaining Schedule Model says 83 wins.

Wildcard or nothing? Already? :grumble:

[I’m screwing around with the infield cross-training toys too much. Next month, most likely, I’m gonna resume playing much more “normal” lineups, do some actual platooning and such. Watching teams blow right past me while I remain committed to the current slow-grow model, and that’s ok; I have very specific plans and there ain’t no hurry.]
