They really are a garbage franchise that caught lightening in bottle twice. Only 7 winning seasons in their entire history and the two times the managed to win 90+ games they, of course, won the WS.
Imagine being fans of the Guardians, having to grind through every game, they are really bad offensively. Lost 1-0 yesterday, won 1-0 tonight, I don't know if we could stomach a team unable to consistently score runs, basically what the Cubs were in May for the whole season.
Didn't watch the games but, I'm certain they were carrying on as if they won the WS the previous two games. Most especially the second game with Alcantara going for the save - they did the same maneuver vs. the Diamondbacks. So, yeah, horsefeathers them in ear.
Is it possible Boyd, Palencia , Zeferjahn and even, Webb are starting to get a little warm at the right time? Is that allowed for healthy Cubs' pitchers?
12-8 Diamondbacks, Rockies have a hot hitter up with a runner on 2nd, how sweet would Cubs-style implosion of their bullpen be? Man. thought that was gone off the bat.
Dude they're 5th all time in the NL in pennants and playoff appearances just 4 or so behind the Giants. Would you also say the Giants are historically terrible as well? They're 100+ years old.
Historically terrible isn't correct, sure they haven't won many WS, they've still been to WS 17 times, all time winning record. What 4th most HOF'ers? I wouldn't say the Cubs are historically terrible, the Browns, the Senators yeah, not the Cubs.
