The Padres and Cubs get their best-of-three series underway Tuesday afternoon at Wrigley Field.
Chicago is the slight favorite to win the series at FanDuel, but the oddsmakers are having a tough time separating these two clubs.
The Cubs were a trendy pick to win the NL Pennant before the season started, but they were overtaken in the Central by the Brewers, causing their price to drift.
San Diego played second fiddle to the Dodgers all year.

What our Post expert thinks about Padres vs. Cubs
The Padres and Cubs finished with similar records, but it was the latter that finished the campaign with a much better run difference.
None of that will matter now, however, as a best-of-three series is all that stands between each club and the end of their 2025 season.
