Summary
The Cubs are flying high with a strong first half, locked in for the top wildcard spot and just five games back in their division — even with injuries. But the second half? That’s where the real test begins. They’re facing the third-toughest remaining schedule in baseball, loaded with division rivals, elite offenses, and teams on hot streaks. Only the Mets and Reds have it worse. Still, with a 15-6 run over their last 21 games, the Cubs have the momentum to make it count — if they can survive this brutal stretch.
