The Cubs lead the majors with 17 blown saves.  Eight pitchers have contributed to that total.  With Carlos Marmol gone and Shawn Camp soon to follow, that should pick up a handful of wins.

brjones, earlier this season you were predicting they would be in the hunt, as soon as the gods of the run differential figured out how badly luck and misfortune were treating them.

They will continue to be awful, trade away Matt Garza and at least one of their best offensive players, leading to more losses because of their pathetic bullpen, which will be further weakened by more trades.

The Cubs are 13-25 since the All-Star Break.

The predictions at the lower end of the scale are looking pretty good right now.  If our current pace of play continues, we'll win another 10-11 games this year, which puts us at 65-66 wins.

He would have been... if the Republican leaning voting groups turned out in 2012 at the same rate they had in 2008.
