The good news is the Cubs are now in 2nd place regarding the NL Central. The bad news is, they are still only 62-64 and almost have no chance at a Wildcard.

At this point. I think everyone in the division not named the Brewers will end up tying for last place. Probably will be around 78-80 wins.

Yeah, if the Cubs finish .500 I would be surprised. Too inconsistent.

Pretty sad to see Hunter Greene waste a fantastic year of pitching and De La Cruz's rise to stardom. The Reds could've been a contender this year... Now we wait yet again for another offseason...

0-3 to start.

4-7 so far, so 3 games under .500.  Almost time to give up on them.

Cubs back in 2nd in the NL Central at 65-65. 1st time in 2 months the Cubs have been .500 or better. It really doesn't matter but the Cubs are only 5.5 games behind the Braves for the final Wildcard spot. Still 32 games left.

I’m done with the Reds. Go Dodgers or something…

Cubs are playing great right now and are 68-66. Problem is, it's a bit too late. They should have been playing this most of the year. The last 3 weeks is what I envisioned the Cubs being this season. They only have themselves to blame for a putrid June and July. Braves own that last wildcard spot and I don't see them blowing a 6 game lead.

Red's entire starting lineup is jacked with injuries and all 4 of our top starting pitchers are also on IL... 

 

There's just nothing to be done with the team for the final month. Just coast and get it over with. Another year at the bottom of the division...

It's a wide open league right now. Any team that makes the playoffs can win it all.

I'm putting my Reds in the range of 80-95 wins this season. I think that's reasonable with the young talent. 

I ended up being close, but overestimated the team.

 

If Colts fans want to see what true bad ownership and bad management looks like, look no further than the lowly Reds.

 

30 years. 30 YEARS… since they’ve won a playoff series and advanced to the next round. The longest drought in all of sports. 
 

12 years since they won a playoff game… 

 

Meanwhile, the Dodgers have bought themselves a 12th consecutive ticket to the playoffs.
