The Cubs finally did it. They broke their 108 year curse last year, winning a memorable World Series in seven games against the Indians.
The Cubs have shown no signs of slowing down either in 2017. PECOTA has the Cubs projected to go 92-70, and win the division by 10 games. The Cubs main core is still fully in tact, and they have young talent that is only getting better.
Key additions
- Wade Davis, RP (trade from Royals)
- Jon Jay, CF (free agent from Padres)
- Koji Uehara, RP (free agent from Red Sox)
The Cubs might have lost Aroldis Chapman, but they gained Wade Davis.
