Thats a good solid record. Its not like they are going to win 105 games. They would likely miss the wildcard if they end it 10 games over but that usually would get you in.
They are also doing this while playing in the toughest division in the NL by far.
The starting pitching has done well enough to keep them in games and the hitting has been good enough to win more than they lost.
I know you don't like the Cards but why is it hard to say they have a pretty decent team rather than its a fluke?
