The Cubs are actually only 5 back in the loss column. I don't want to get sucked back in in two weeks if we're like 2 back in the loss column, only to see us choke.

Just think, it might be 5.5 if the umps hadn't robbed us yesterday. :banghead:

They didn't help us, but we should be good enough it doesn't matter against the Nationals.

To a point yes, but when you have a run given to the opposing team on a blown call(Morgan at 2nd) and a run taken away from your own team at home(Lee) thats a pretty big disadvantage in baseball. Bad teams beat average to good teams all the time, and being the benefit of 2 calls that factored directly into 2 runs is a big advantage.
