This team...
#4
It sucks. It really really sucks. It's inexplicable that they are this terrible at scoring runs after scoring in bunches last year. It wasn't even one of those years where they score 12 runs one game and only score 5 in the next three games combined. They consistently scored all year in 2008.

That being said, I'm going to try to be as optimistic as I can be right now.

I don't think this offense is going to get back to form over night. They are going to struggle for a long time still before they get better. That being said, some of these guys could turn it on at some point this season. If they can just float around the .500 mark, this team is capable of ripping off tons of wins later in the season.

Recently we've seen the 2003 Marlins ( [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/puke.gif[/img] ), the 2005 Astros, the 2007 Rockies, and the 2007 Phillies have very mediocre first halves only to go on to dominate the second half and go all the way to the WS on their momentum (although the Phillies didn't make it to the WS in 2007). I know it's hard to believe this team can do anything right now, but this Cubs team easily has more talent than any of those teams did.
