Kvetching about the schedule

As I write here, the Mets are beating up on Washington 6-0 and evidently on their way to a 7-1 start. All of this has been recorded against the Nationals and Marlins, while the Phils have faced St. Louis, Los Angeles and Atlanta--arguably the favorites to win the three NL divisions this year.

I know it all evens out in the end, and the Phils' schedule after tonight takes a sharp turn toward teams predicted to finish way under .500, but it still would have been nice to start the year playing some weaker teams...
