2012 Philadelphia Phillies: Predictions for Each April Series

Let’s have some fun, shall we?  The Phillies have seven series in April to start the season, for a total of 23 games.  Here is how the Phils started the last four seasons in their first 23:

2008- 12-11

2009- 13-10

2010- 13-10

2011- 15-8

They’ll open for three on the road, come home for six games, then head out west for a difficult 10-game road trip. Then they’re home for four more to wrap up the month.  More than likely, the Phillies will be without Ryan Howard and Chase Utley for the entire month, so will they be able to match the 15-8 record from last season?
