The Chicago Cubs are 16 games out of first place in the NL Central, and 12.5 back of the Reds in the Wild Card. The Cubs have 59 games left on their schedule; and I feel if they go 40-19 in those final games, they could make the playoffs. I'm not saying that this is likely, but it could happen. And my question here is; what kind of odds would someone give me for the Chicago Cubs to make the playoffs? Currently, the odds on pinnacle for the Cubs to win the World Series are (+600,000), so the odds of making the playoffs would be smaller than that. Here is how I think the Cubs can go 40-19.

VS Cards (1-0) (1-0)
VS AZ (2-1) (3-1)
VS Pitt (3-0) (6-1)
@ Milw (2-1) (8-2)
@ Colo (2-1) (10-3)
@ Hou (2-1) (12-4)
VS Stl (2-1) (14-5)
VS Philly (3-1) (17-6)
@ Stl (2-1) (19-7)
@ Pitt (3-0) (22-7)
VS SF (2-1) (24-8)
VS Pitt (3-1) (27-9)
@ Atl (2-2) (29-11)
VS LA (2-1) (31-12)
VS Cinny (2-1) (33-13)
@ Philly (2-1) (35-14)
@ Cinny (2-2) (37-16)
VS Milw (1-1) (38-17)
VS Colo (2-1) (40-18)

* Next, I have no idea where I fucked up at, but 40-18 or 40-19 would get them in, and also is possible. Lets the odds come in please??

First game is in the books. Cubs sweep Cardinals. Cubs now 15 games out in the NL Central, and 11.5 out in the Wild Card as the Reds lost again as well.

Yeah really. I dont think I would bet on any team in the MLB not losing at least one series for the rest of the year.

After this (Pirates) series, I will have to make one minor adjustment. The cubs took 2/3 and did not sweep as I thought they would. My adjustment will be made in the final series of the year, as the CUBS WILL SWEEP THE ROCKIES to get into the playoffs. Actually, this is just for the fun of it, but I really do hope and feel that this scenerio could come true. The new projection looks like this below. The * symbolizes that the series is complete.

Never would happen for the loveable losers. Too many teams ahead of them would all have to crumble.
