Tough Schedule

It would have been really nice to be able to sweep the lowly Astros this weekend, or at least take two out of three from them. The upcoming schedule is pretty brutal. They open up with a three game set against San Diego, then head north for a four game weekend series with the LA Dodgers, and come home for three more against a now red-hot Yankees club. Those three clubs have combined for a .564 winning percentage, or 19 games above .500 to date. I hate to say it, but I would be satisfied if they won only four of ten.
