Rockies and Twins both pull out walk-off victories. Both are now one win up on Cubs (53 vs 52), and the Cubs have 3 more losses. Good chance the Cubs aren't going to flip that. So, Cubs are now situated to draft #8, if the season finished tonight. Don't think finishing on the wrong side of the Mets pick (#11) is likely.
Cubs are 1, 2, and 3 wins ahead of miami, Washington, and the Royals. So they've got a shot to still step up a couple more spots in the draft order. It would be funny if the next cba was fed up with the tanking approach, and modified the draft rules again,, inevitably to the Cubs disadvantage.
