This is very frustrating.

[jersey cubs fan]

This CUBS team is the definition of frustration.........

 

CUBS are 5-7 vs. Cincinnati

CUBS are 4-5 vs. Houston

CUBS are 4-5 vs. Pittsburgh

 

CUBS are 7-5 vs. Milwaukee

CUBS are 7-4 vs. St. Louis

 

We keep losing to the lesser teams while beating the better teams.

 

It just ain't supposed to work this way.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

But then look at their record vs teams outside the division. They've beaten up on some bad teams, White Sox, Nationals, Giants, while struggling versus every contender or pseudo contender in the rest of the NL, AZ, LA, SD, NYM, PHI, ATL, with the lone exception of Colorado. Of course, the sweep against FLA muddies that picture a bit.

While that's all true, 26 of our last 36 games are against NL Central opponents. The only outsiders being Arizona, Los Angeles & Florida. Bottom line.... this is no elite team, and our schedule is no cake walk.

I would say the schedule is a cake walk, the problem is the Cubs keep getting stuck in the frosting.
