If the Cardinals play .500 for all their remaining non-Cubs games, they'll have won 97 games, not counting the 5 remaining against the Cubs. The Cubs have played at a .653 pace since the all-star break. If they continue that pace for their remaining non-Cardinal games, they'll have won 93 games. Not including the 5 remaining against the Cardinals. I think you can fill in the blanks here. Win the play in game and I like our chances in a five game series against these guys.
