Will they reach 90 wins is the question. Phillies will most likely lose, but the Padres are world beaters all of a sudden. Home field is looking more and more bleak 

The Cubs are still on pace for 90 wins.  Which is impressive considering the mammoth pitching issues all year.  If they just had average pitching this year where would they be?  95 wins?

Why did we attempt the steal?

Did they assume the Reds conceded the base to Busch?  Oops

in terms of actual runs allowed, we do have league average pitching. that's the problem

That's because of the defense.  So league average run prevention, but not league average pitching.
