Phillies -
The Phillies are currently playing .654 baseball. If they continue that pace they should finish with 105, or 106 wins.
Either total would break the 101-win seasons that they had in 1976 and 1977. They did not get to the World Series in either of those seasons. Their lack of playoff experience hurt their championship chances back then.
There should be a key difference this time around. A number of current players still have their 2008 World Series ring. That factor should help guide their own October movements and that of their less experienced teammates.
