The Chicago Cubs maintain postseason aspirations as they enter the final stretch of the regular season. Following a recent win against the Milwaukee Brewers, the team faces a seven-game deficit in the National League Central standings with 24 games remaining.

Final results from the fan polling will be available later this week as the team looks to close the gap on the division leaders.
