The team is actually good, though. Young/Drew/Quentin/Jackson can't be THIS BAD.

I banked heavily on the PECOTA all-stars (Drew, Young, Tracy) for my fantasy team. ugly results to date.

the prob is guys like quentin and jackson seem to basically be solid, above average regs, but no star quality to speak of outside of upton and young.

Yea it would really suck to have solid above average regulars on your team when they are only 24 years old and not even arbitration eligible.

Well, I suppose I should have clarified. The Chicago Cubs are one of the top 5 teams in baseball RIGHT NOW. Looking at their run differential, they aren't that far back overall, either.

I do believe they will win 95+ games. I am drunk, though.

I don't know...the Cardinals looked like the best team today if you want to play fun with restricting sample sizes

what odds do you want on 95+ wins?

I'll give you 5 to 1

Let me consider this.

This post made me giggle again.

Since the beginning of June , the Cubs have a better record than:

LAA
Red Sox
Indians
Mets
"red hot" Mariners

Even after their abysmal start, they have a better overall W3-L3 than LAA.

They are most certainly one of the top 5 teams in baseball right now, and barring major injuries, will be at the end, imo.

It means that at least 25 other teams aren't as good as them at the moment. Hope this helps.
