With 15 games left in 2023 the Cubs were 2 games ahead in the loss column over the DBacks and Reds for WC3. I believe they were losing the tiebreaker to both teams With 15 games left in 2026 the Cubs might end the night 2 games ahead in the loss column over the DBacks and Padres for WC 2/3. They will own the tiebreaker over both teams Still in a better position (and yes the DBacks are currently trailing the Royals 2-1) but it’s getting frighteningly similar -
Cubs might go 2-5 against Milwaukee but if they can score a couple runs they will win the RD battle over those 7 games
-
Correction: the Padres will be 2 back and both will be 2 behind in the loss column
-
Cubs were 99.8% to make the playoffs on Saturday. Since then Cubs 0-4 Padres 4-0 Diamondbacks 3-0 (playing now) interested to see where they end up after tonight
-
Diamondbacks already have 2 on in the 1st
-
Well hey outside of the 2 sweeps it was 4-3 Cubs
-
If the Cubs miss the playoffs I propose a clean sweep in the offseason. Won’t happen but there needs to be a reset after 2 improbable September playoff collapses in a 4 season span
-
Yeah this season might be toast
-
Not gonna watch after last nights horsefeathers but one thing to look forward to: PCA is currently at 9.9 fWAR for the season. Can get above 10 tonight
-
Who could have ever foreseen him having issues with judgement?
-
Cubs playoff odds on Fangraphs have dropped from 99.8% on Saturday to 97.9% this morning lol
-
5-4 Padres now. Looking like the standings will be Phillies -- Cubs 0.5 Diamondbacks 3.5 ------------- Padres 3.5 Edit: I'm being told the DBacks and Padres are actually 3.5 games behind the Cubs, but whatever, 3 behind in the loss column
-
whoops
-
And the Padres have tied it. Looking like a worst case scenario night with the Cubs losing and the Phillies, Diamondbacks and Padres winning.
-
Bases loaded 0 outs after yet another walk. Cubs might be down to a 3 (4) game lead due to another bullpen collapse
-
And of course the Padres have 2 on and 0 outs after some dude who has 3 MLB innings in his career walks the first 2 hitters. Now the top of their order is up.
-
4-1 in the 8th now. I don’t see Webb or Palencia warming up at least
-
They have had a lead in 16 of these 19 games and a 2+ run lead in 14 of the 19 games.
-
The Brewers hired a chemistry teacher with cancer to take the Cardinals pixie dust formula and make it 98% pure and now it’s pixie dust on steroids.
-
Nationals up 3-0 at least over SD. If they hang on the cushion stays at 5 games with 16 left (4+tiebreaker)
-
To be fair we developed Steele, we developed Horton, we developed Brown. They all just suffered multi-year long injuries while the Brewers guys make 30+ starts a year. The pen is a problem and has been for several years though.
-
5 of those losses by 1 run 3 of those losses by 2 runs 3 of those losses with a lead in the 9th and 2 outs +27 RD during that stretch
-
7-12 in our last 19 games
-
I’d walk Contreras intentionally here Edit: oh wait forgot there’s a .625 OPS hitter due up, they have us right where they want us
-
Outside of the A's who play in a launching pad, no team is within 20 HRs allowed of the Cubs.
