Which of these teams will be toughest to hold off for the Cubs in the wild-card race?
The Cubs' sweep of the Giants over the weekend put them solidly into the second wild-card spot, by 3½ games entering their series against the Brewers Tuesday night. They're 14 games over .500 at 62-48, the fourth-best record in the major leagues.
However! There are 52 games left on the Cubs' schedule this year and much can change over that span, as many, many teams that held leads this large or larger for playoff positions could tell you.
