They've got to play the NL West.
But here's the thing.
This is where the Cubs are going to win the division if they're going to win the division.
It's by beating up on the actual division opponents.
Understand this.
There are two games clear of everyone, but they have the third best record in baseball, and every team in the division is within three and a half games of them.
That's what we call shouting distance.
Cubs can hear when they talk.
The Pirates are 19 and 16, but they're only three and a half back.
The Brewers, who are going to get healthy, you would think at some point,
are three and a half back, even though they're 18 and 15.
They're hanging around.
We remember what happened when the Brewers hung around last year.
I know Mark Grody does anyway.
So when do you start paying attention to standings?
June.
Okay, so post-Memorial Day?
Okay, that's fine.
Well, this is a team that doesn't have Hunter Green.
And you might want to beat up on a team that doesn't have its ace.
