At the 1/8th point 4 games below .500 turns into 32 games below at this pace.
Obviously there will be hot spells and winning streaks and the numbers should be better. But even this early they already need a hot streak just to even their record. Let alone to actually compete for first place or a wild card.
It’s actually worse than you suggest.
A really good team, one that wins in the mid-90s, averages 1 game over .500 per week of the season. That means, if they lose today, the Angels would theoretically need A WHOLE MONTH to get back to .500. And that’d only be if they were a really good team, which we know they most certainly are not.
I’d love to be as optimistic as you but I simply can’t. So I’ll just remind you the Halos are 2-4 at home so far this season playing mid-range clubs like Boston and Tampa.
