Between now and the Cubs arriving in Cincy: Cubs play 4 games (1 vs Pitt, 3 @ Fla) Brewers play 5 games (1 @ Atl, 3 @ StL, 1 vs SD) With the Cubs' magic number being six, that means that Cubs wins plus Brewers losses has to equal six over those nine games. While the Cubs are definitely good enough to take all four of those games, I have a hard time believing that's actually going to happen. I think Gordz beats Z tomorrow, and Cubs will do well to take 2 of 3 from Florida. I also don't believe the Brewers will lose any more than two of their next 5. They may not make up much (or any) ground over that time, but I really don't see the Cubs having it mathematically locked up by Friday. I will predict they clinch on Saturday.
