Our schedule for the month of May will feature 13 home games and 16 road games, which will add to our already road-skewed record (we played 15 of our 24 April games on the road as well). We’ll open the month with three against Baltimore () and four against divisional rival Detroit (12-13, 3rd AL Central), followed by six games in New York against the Yankees (15-11, 1st AL East) and Mets (10-14, 4th NL East). A week of home games against Miami (8-17, 5th NL East) and Pittsburgh (11-14, 4th NL Central) will follow, and then we end the month with a a brutal road stretch that will include our crosstown rival Cubs (12-12, 2nd NL Central) for three, followed by three games in Detroit and four against the Royals (12-13, 4th AL Central) in Kansas City. So there’s a lot of room for us to make a name for ourselves as an improved ballclub or fall into obscurity as we have in past seasons.
