The Cubs have a bad history of playing down to the level of the opponent unfortunately. Even all of the years that Milwaukee sucked, they still owned us and Pitt does pretty good against us as well. SD and Atl are 2 of the better NL teams right now and we faired decently against them so maybe we start playing outside of the division more, we'll do a little better. And they usually get owned by the crappiest pitchers. 5IP shutout by David Weathers, and just taken over by AAA call-ups.. Yet they still managed to score on guys like Roger Clemens and Oswalt.
