Craigtember Charts 9/13/23: Is F for Fastball Freddy? or to pay respects to the Cubs?

Quick STL update – technically the Cubs, Brewers, and Cards could finish with 81 wins apiece – this is never in a million years going to happen – and I didn’t care to investigate their records against each other to determine the tiebreaker. (I know it will not matter but it’s always fun to see the Cardinals get eliminated).
Tl;dr – Cardinals might have a 3-team tiebreaker scenario to win the NLC yet, but will disappear off of this list with ANY MIL, CHC win / STL loss now
More yellow!
Despite it looks like a 60/40 split Fangraphs has the mathematical odds of us winning the division at 90%
That’s based on not every game being a coin flip and we shall win a bit more than our fair share.
We have 18 games and even if we go .500 the Cubs need 4 more wins. They only have 16 games left. They need to go 11-5 and win the tiebreaker, I think.
If we win 10 of our last 18 they need 12-4 and a series win over us.
You’re doing the lords work, friend
Awww snap it’s grid season!!
I’m new to this chart but have been watching it the last few days. Can you explain the white part? Thanks
