In the National League, though, the last few weeks of the regular season are shaping up to be one of the more entertaining stretches in recent memory. You want to feel that emotion every day, win or lose, when you get to this point of the year. The Pirates were the team a couple of weeks ago and now the Cardinals are making a run. The Nationals, Cubs and Dodgers were all considerable favorites to win their respective divisions in 2018 but all three have been unable to separate themselves from the pack. The Cardinals close the season at Chicago while the Braves visit the Phillies and the Nationals take on the Rockies in Colorado.
