Well at least you have next spring to look forward to when Cohen starts raping and pillaging the league.
Not sure, but they do have a 4 game lead in the division with 21 games to play, and they have an 8 game lead on the 2nd place wild card team (Philadelphia), so they'll really have to work at it to miss the playoffs.
Right now, I'm more concerned with them getting on track in time for the playoffs. They're still in great shape to make the playoffs. It doesn't really matter how they get there, just that they do get there, and that they find their game in time for the playoffs.
That said, the problems this past week have been with the offense, not nearly as much with the pitching. That's the good news in my opinion. They have too many good hitters for the offense to stay cooled off. I know it's the cool thing to push the panic button as a Cubs fan, but I don't think it's quite time yet. I still think they win the division and come into the playoffs with home field advantage for the NL playoffs.
