Cubs back in the 6th spot and in the NL playoffs again after a 6-0 thumping of the Rockies. I don't know how much more of this I can take. I am nervous when the Cubs play - get mad, get happy, and I am score board watching to see what the Marlins and Reds are doing as well. Marlins and Reds both lost tonight. Pirates playing spoiler right now. Brewers did me a solid tonight by beating the Marlins.
Here are the standings heading into September 23rd for that final WC playoff spot:
Cubs 80-74
Marlins 79-75 (1)
Reds 79-76 (1.5)
-have to remember that the Cubs do not have the tiebreaker over either team. 8 games left folks.
