Since the last time I looked at the odds (extreme Han Solo voice), the Cubs have slipped a bit in the standings but remain in third place, now six games back of the Brewers and seven behind the Reds. While it’s possible the Reds or the Brewers can win the division, I don’t think Cincinnati is as good as their record suggests (albeit with their very exciting play thanks to EDLC) and the recent series with the Brewers, in which the Cubs might have swept were it not for some brain farts and bad luck (it could’ve gone either way), suggested that the Brewers weren’t that good either.
