Cubs mull what could have been after abrupt Wild Card exit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
SAN DIEGO -- This was not how this Cubs’ season was supposed to end. This script offered the ballclub the same path through October as a year ago, giving the North Siders a shot at redemption after last fall’s postseason exit against the rival Brewers.

The Cubs have checked that important box by clinching a place in the NL’s playoff picture, marking the first time the North Siders have reached the postseason in consecutive years since the team’s incred
