The Cubs have reached the All-Star break, though they failed to stick the landing. A quick glimpse of the standings does show the Cubs in first place, but that is due in large part to the entire National League Central struggling in the first half. That’s probably not going to continue. I would expect at least one of those teams to have a sustained run after the break. Let’s hope it is the Cubs.
We last looked at Cumulative Standings for Heroes and Goats after game number 78, or 12 games ago. At that time, the Cubs were 43-35.
