Not long ago we had a 7 game lead, if Philly wins, will be down to 2.5 game lead .


Hopefully on this home stand, we can stretch this lead bigger.

BTW Philly might be with out Howard for a week or more, was injured in today's game vs Nats .

I think where things sit a week from now will be a lot more important than today, that's a little obvious. But we have two tough ballclubs at home and if we can take care of the Mets and Giants and grow the lead to 4.5 games (considering the Phillies should be without Howard), I will feel pretty good the rest of the way. Of course, I'd like to see some offense along the way as well, we can't keep losing 2-1 games.
