Don't know if that number is above/below league average, but I love the fact that the Cubs have only had 5 games all year where they did not take at least one walk. Seems like that number used to be significantly higher in the past.. but that just could be my personal bias against the ol' Cubs way of swing hard and swing often. It's quite possible that the number seems higher because over the years when I was doing the "worthless stats of the day" schtick before the game, I always showed the stat when the CUBS drew 2 or more BBs. So that would make the back end 0 or 1 BBs. Just a thought. That being said, this current CUBS team is clearly drawing more BBs than any recent team.... say over the last 10 years or so.
