They're the epitome of bad-mediocre :lol: Not good enough to contend, not bad enough to get a good pick :fist:

We still are top 5 aren't we? I expect once we loss the heart and soul of this team in Reed MANTLE that we will go on a 60 game losing streak to clinch the 1st pick.

I think #4 right now. It's very precarious, Minnesota and KC flank the Cubs and are surprisingly sucky. Moustakas probably is out for a bit so the Royals will suck more. Minnesota has been beating down on the Indians though so that helps a bit.

Colorado and Houston are in freefall mode despite the great Tyler Colvin.

I am disappoint.

Well Justin Germano ought to be taking the ball every fifth day for a while so that ought to help. I really do think we are going to see three to five guys gone here soon which should help the sucking increase.

The Stros finally won though so we didn't lose more ground.

Can't catch the Astros. More worried about KC, SD, and Minnesota. Colorado might have opened up too big of a lead too :lol:

I wish my game of Mogul was real life so I could force trade the Yankees to those teams

Unless Cubs just fall flat on there face looks like 3rd pick is the best we can hope for

With the new Cubs rotation I like our chances to sneak into the top 3.

The NL West pisses me off, you can never predict their division winner because a new team gets hot every year.

I don't have a BA account so if someone can maybe check it out (if you have an account) that'd be cool. Top three ranks appear to be pitching.
