If I were a Cardinal fan I'd be feeling pretty cocky about playing the Brewers 6(?) times before the end of the season. It almost seems like we're trying to coast to the finish line. But there's a bit of a hill before we get there. Keep pedaling! Yeah, I agree. I'm not nearly as confident in facing them in the NLCS than others. This is just historically what they do. Get super hot in September and ride it all the way to a World Series championship. As far as the division title, yeah we're going to win it, but I think it would be better served to get it over with ASAP than just waiting for it to happen.
