With 19 of the cubs next 25 games On the road this is the key stretch to the regular season if the cubs want to be in the playoffs. Chicago has not played well on the road this year especially since the beginning of June but they have gotten off to a good start in July which is definitely a step in the right direction. Although I still expected to take some bumps and bruises on this trip taking 2 out of 3 in this series is certainly something they should be aiming for and If the head back home with a 5 and 4 road trip read the worst 4 and 5 it can be looked at as a positive in some cases but I do expect them to go 5 and 4 on this trip with series victories over both the giants and the brewers but a series loss to the cardinals.
