I disagree. There a couple of good teams playing for the WC. Astros right about now areplaying probably the best baseball in the majors. Things have changed since 2003. Things changed since last year? These exact comments were made last year. Then we played good baseball and were in position to wrap up the Wild Card until a collapse in the last week. The Astros were better in 2003 than they are now and they were better last year than they are this year. Collapse or not we did not make it to the playoffs last year, and they did. Do you honestly see a playoff team when you watch the Cubs of this year? I dont. They make too many mistakes and can't do the little things that count like moving along runners and scoring in runs when a man is on 3rd. Those little things are costing us. Our starting pitching isnt as dominant as it was in 2003 either. If you havent noticed Wood is out and we don't have Clement anymore. Dont be surprised or shocked if we dont make it.
