Very impressive but
the Cubs have had the 2nd best record of any World Series Champion over the last 30 seasons (1987-2016 going into 2017 now) at 103-58. Only the 1998 Yankees were better at 114-48. Cubs just beat the Brewers again and took 2 of 3 at Milwaukee, Kris Bryant hit another HR as well. Cubs now 2.5 ahead of the Brewers in the NL Central and 4.5 ahead of the hated Cards. 3 reasons why the Cubs will Repeat -
1. They have 0 pressure on them to win it now, they broke all the jinx/curses last season,
2. They know how to win it all after beating the Giants, Dodgers, and Indians last season,
3. They still have Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo, Jake Arrieta, Jon Lester, and now Wade Davis is an excellent replacement for Chappy as a Closer.
The Intangible, I think Maddon is the best Manager in Baseball as well. Since Maddon has took over as Cubs Manager beginning in 2015, the Cubs are 97-65 in 2015/made it to the NLCS, 103-58 in 2016/won the WS, and now 56-48 = lead their Division by 2.5.

Yes, this will be a fun Playoffs with the Cubs, Dodgers, and Yankees in it! Hopefully all 3 win their Division (Dodgers have there's on lock down already). I hate the RedSox so I would rather the Yankees in it with an easier path, just don't like Boston teams.

The way that guy was treated he deserves one. He didn't cost the Cubs the NLCS, Cubs just choked. What sucks is, the Marlins went on to beat the Yankees without HFA and we were better than the Marlins IMO, just choked!

Yeah great pickup for you guys. This season has Dodgers year written all over it. We will see come Playoff time what happens. Should be fun to watch. Regarding Bartman, I am really not sure how good his sports knowledge is but I never blamed him for our Game 6 loss vs the Marlins. Not sure why a lot of people did? The Cubs played sloppy in that 8th Inning with Error's, etc.. Cubs still had Game 7 at home with Kerry Wood Pitching too. Just an epic choke. I think the Ring puts things to sleep with Cubs fans that hate him.

Cubs are already up 6-0 in the 2nd Inning over the D-Backs. I thought the NL West was supposed to be Good
This shit is over already.
