Reds - 6-4
Padres - 7-3
To get to +5 games on the Padres from where they currently are, it would require just a +1 each week over the Padres for the next 5 weeks, and there are only 8 weeks remaining.
Which really means Reds need to win about every series from here on out, or get a sweep or two if they lose a series or two.
My predictions for the remainder of the season, by series:
@CHC: 1-2
@PIT: 3-1
vs PHI: 1-2
vs MIL: 1-2
@LAA: 2-1
@ARI: 2-1
@LAD: 1-2
vs STL: 2-1
vs TOR: 1-2
vs NYM: 1-2
@SD: 1-2
@ATH: 3-0
@STL: 2-1
vs CHC: 2-2
vs PIT: 2-1
@MIL: 1-2
--------------------------------
Remaining Total: 26-24 (+2)
End Record: 84-78 (+6)
Two years ago, 84-78 was the record for the last two NL WC spots, so it can happen, but the Padres will have to go under .500 from here on out to make that happen.
Maybe the Reds could get 2-4 more wins than what I project, but I don't see them being a 90-win ball club this year given where they are currently.
