The Mariners Without May

PrintUnder Jack Zduriencik and Co, here are the month-by-month records for the Mariners
Aside from the two Mays, only April of this year was a below .500 month and just barely. Even separating September and October of last season leaves both months above .500. How then would the Mariners have looked if we could just erase May from the calendar, or perhaps replace it with some earlier month like Smarch during which no baseball is played?
Obviously, this doesn't mean anything. Frankly I went into investigating this with the thought that the 2009 team would come out as division champs, but alas the Angels had a mediocre May, too. The 2010 standings would also look a lot closer if this July had yet to happen.
Still, not last! In this completely hypothetical and meaningless view, not last!

Actually, numbers 2 and 3 respectively.

This seems worse than rosterbation to me.
It’s not even like there would be a good reason, like a freak Tyrannosaurus getting loose during May 2 years in a row, that would account for it.
If Brad Pitt is playing Beane who do you want playing you?

This is nothing more than a tidbit of information.

Ironically, May is Joe Mauer's best month.
According to this. I’m just out for the chuckles though, not trying to rosterbate, I swear.
May has been a notoriously crappy month for this team for some reason.
Since at least 2005. I kept thinking that one of the reasons, aside from this season, is us getting a healthy (or unhealthy) helping of Yankees and Red Sox games. And in multiple years, we had a .500-ish April followed by a bad May.
I dunno. It’s kinda strange, and it definitely goes beyond the Zduriencik age.
