Here's the comments he adds: "Take it to the bank. Going into final weekend - Cubs 96-63, Brewers 92-67, Cardinals 87-72. Cubs have division clinched, Brewers have wild-card clinched and rest CC and Sheets. Brewers beat Mets 3-2, Cubs beat Dodgers 3-1. A wild Cubs-Brewers NLCS that has more fans arrested than runs scored." I hope he's right, I'd have a few less gray hairs if the Wild Card was wrapped up before the weekend.
In the comments, leave your predictions on where you think the Brewers are going to finish and your thoughts on if the Polish Pickle is right or not.
