The Chicago Cubs are in the midst of a five-game losing streak and have lost 8-of games, and while things certainly feel bleak, the team is still very much in the thick of the playoff race. In fact, as the Cubs enter play on Tuesday, they are actually in a playoff spot, owning the third wild card spot in the National League by percentage points over the Cincinnati Reds. The Cubs are also just a half-game behind the Diamondbacks for the second spot, which would keep them out of a first-round matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers. That being said, the Cubs will need to turn things around dramatically in order to secure that playoff spot in coming days, as their offense has sputtered and their starting pitching has begun to falter down the stretch. The Brewers hold a six-game lead, and would own a tiebreaker over the Cubs if Chicago fails to sweep them in the final series of the season in Milwaukee. The Cubs are currently tied with the Reds, but hold a narrow advantage due to having a superior winning percentage, having played two fewer games than their Central Division rivals.
