Chicago Cubs: The underdog role, stil issues at the top?
PECOTA has projected the Chicago Cubs to finish dead last in the Central Division. The Cubs should embrace the underdog role, as the target has been on there back for several years. And do the Cubs still have a leadoff man issue?
So thanks to PECOTA, the Chicago Cubs are headed for last place in the Central. Yep. And you know, these projections are never wrong. *HEAVY sarcasm* But for the Cubs, it would be in their best interest to embrace the new underdog role. For the last two seasons, the target was on their back. Now, they have a reprieve. When everyone is looking at you like you need to win every game? That’s when good things can happen.
