The only thing consistent about the Cubs this season is their uncanny ability to shred any semblance of hope after building it back up. They won two of three against the Dodgers in LA and should have swept, then they dropped two of three to the Rockies in Denver and repeated that feat at Wrigley against the A’s. Now seven games out of the Wild Card with 10 to play, their final stretch is about little other than figuring out their lottery odds.
As far as that goes, the Cubs currently hold a measly 0.84% chance at the No.
