Still pretty hard to believe, but the Cubs have defeated the St. Louis Cardinals in the NLDS.
The NLCS begins Saturday, but we don’t know the Cubs’ opponent yet, as the Dodgers beat the Mets last night to extend that series to a fifth game. This is good news for the Cubs, since both teams will have to burn another starting pitcher while the Cubs can set up their top two starters right off the bat.
The deciding game will take place Thursday night, and it should be a great pitching matchup: Zack Greinke against Jacob deGrom.
