But honestly, heart of the order is finally starting to come around, starting staff is underrated, bullpen has solidified over the course of the year, and we've performed better in the second half of the season the last four years or so... took a very small shot on them to win the NL Central at 50-1 odds, wayyyy too much value to ignore.

Angels.......Texas will fold with injuries and pitching problems. Lee is not their savior, in fact, he will stuggle in that par as well.

I think we have a good shot to get back in it as well...and not just because i think we are great, but i dont see Cincy running away with anything, and STL pitching is gonna keep them from running off 8 or 9 in a row...they have 2 studs, then patchwork right now....Cubs have shown already they are starting the 2nd half to try and get back in it, beating the Phils both games so far....If Zambo could come back, and make amends, we could get it done...Ramirez is on fire now, finally, and if Lee can just get going and Theriot get on base like he usually does, with Byrd, Colvin and Soriano, we have a VERY formidable lineup......Its gonna be work, and not saying we'll win it, but we'll be IN IT...

Cubs lead the league in quality starts. Really shows how brutal the lineup has been.
