Need to finish .573 over the last 131 games to reach 100 wins. Not sure if a team has won 100 and not won their division.

Yeah Razor, I kind of feel like the pen as a whole has been overachieving and that things would find their level eventually. Rondon looks to be the real deal but not a whole lot of confidence that most of the rest of those guys could maintain how they started and I think we're starting to see a bit of that. I think Hammel will level out too.

Good news is we still have some hitters who are below what they will be later and that will level off too...in a good way.

Giants in 1993 off the top of my head I know. Won 103 games but Braves won 104.

ETA: Went and looked it up and it's happened only twice in the divisional era (since 1969)

1980 Baltimore Orioles (100/62/.617): Finished 2nd in AL East
1993 San Francisco Giants (103/59/.636): Finished 2nd in NL West
