Milwaukee will hopefully continue its slide and let Chicago creep into First place shortly after the All-Star Break. But either way, with the uneven schedule in the second half, it won't surprise me to see the Central take the WC.
And just to make sure it's mentioned, the Cubs are 11-2 in their last 13 games including sweeps against the White Sox and Rockies and series victories against Milwaukee and Washington. Baseball is fun when you're above .500!!!
