I think the Cubs have the stuff to go all the way. They have the Manager, (Thanks San Fransisco) who knows how to effectively use his entire roster, the pitching, the offense and the defense. Tonight Estes (their worst starter) came out and pitched a complete game shutout. When your 5th starter is performing well as your other 4 aces, (Prior, Wood, Zambrano and Clement) they'll be in good shape.
Also, people have been saying the Cubs will lose because Sammy is in a slump. Yeah well he hasn't had the best of seasons, but the rest of the team has picked up the slack. Ramierez, Lofton, Simon, Alou, and Grudzielanek have really done well. If the Cubs can hold together and take the division, they will go far. The Braves are the "favorites" but remember, they lost badly in the playoffs last year as the heavy favorites.
Go Cubs!
