For a comparison, Soto had a damn good 2010 season, the entire OF was solid, Colvin came out of nowhere with great numbers, Castro had a solid debut, Theriot did everything Darwin Barney can do and the team still finished 10th in the NL in runs scored and OPS. The rotation was fairly stable and relatively deep (the highest ERA among starters was 4.26 and 3 guys were sub 4.00) and Marmol and Marshall were great yet they still only won 75 games. I think a lot of people are putting a lot of faith in the notion that they won't be as horrible as they were last year in some spots. But you actually have to have some good players to be a good team. The Cubs don't have nearly enough good players. This.
