Baseball starts in May

East	W	L	Pct	GB	Home	Road	East	Cent	West	Streak	L10
New York Mets	14	12	.538	--	9-5	5-7	12-7	2-5	0-0	Lost 1	4-6
Florida Marlins	15	13	.536	--	7-8	8-5	9-5	6-5	0-3	Lost 3	4-6
Philadelphia Phillies	15	13	.536	--	7-7	8-6	3-6	9-6	3-1	Lost 1	7-3
Atlanta Braves	12	15	.444	2.5	8-4	4-11	8-10	1-2	3-3	Lost 4	4-6
Washington Nationals	11	17	.393	4.0	7-7	4-10	9-13	2-4	0-0	Won 3	6-4

Forget April since the top three teams are all virtually tied. I suspect that this will be the case throughout the year (sans Florida and plus Atlanta, though, maybe not now with an injured Smoltz).

uhh am i the only one worried about one key stat here? the record within the division… if they keep that up, this will be a two team race (and the phils won’t be involved)

Sure, it's a concern

But the Phils recovered from a 7-13 intra-division record last April to go 42-30 against the NL East for the season.

They are 2-4 against the Mets and 1-2 against the Nats. Are you REALLY concerned about that?
