To be honest, they were always around. Sucky Cubs just happen to be better than the Suckier Pirates and Suckiest Nationals. Not last year If last years team was an F, this one is a D+ at best. Considering the amount of resources that were spent on the team and the fact that the injuries have been minimal, shouldn't this be an F as well? I only give them the higher grade because they'll somehow win more games and I think the starting pitching is better.
