For sure but the new scheduling should make it even easier to wind up with a good record as you play a more even distribution of the bad teams.NL East is the beast in MLB and will be a dog fight again next season.
I will also add that 3 Wild Cards is too many. Philly shouldn’t have even been in the playoffs. We play 162 for a reason. Yes they beat our ass but in a short series even the worst team in the league would beat the best occasionally.
