Well, I say it's a bit late since they gave up Greinke. If they'd played up to their potential all year, they'd be easily in the race... if not atop the division.

Watch them win it anyway :lol: But yeah, it's gonna be tough without their best pitcher.

E# is now 1. If STL wins tonight, it's all over.

The Cubs will be eliminated either tonight or Friday.

If the Cardinals beat the Dodgers tonight, the Cubs are eliminated.

If the Dodgers beat the Cardinals, there is a tie for the second NL wild card spot. That means on the next night, if one of them wins, the Cubs are eliminated.

Sorry folks.

You mean, we're doing it wrong? Ask the Cubs to win the Pennant, they lose. Ask the Cubs to tank, they miraculously make the playoffs? :troll:

:D

Unfortunately, it's no longer possible past Friday. They can still secure the #2 pick if they hold off Colorado and Minnesota, and could potentially catch the Astros for #1, but the Astros are in their own class of suck.

The Cubs were just mathematically eliminated as the Cardinals hold on to a 2-1 victory in Los Angeles. Them's the breaks, folks.
