The Cubs play their last home game of the regular season tonight (7:08pm CDT) with chance to have a say on which team they play in the NLDS.
The Mets (81-73) and Giants (82-73) are tied for the NL Wild Card and the Cardinals are a half-game back on the outside looking in. All three teams pose different challenges for the Cubs, but if Maddon’s team can beat the Cardinals it improves the chances they will not see the Redbirds again until Opening Day 2017.
Joe Maddon announced another round of changes to his starting rotation.
