Finally some Cubs fan frustration: Browny, you have finally realized what all us non-Cub fans already know -- the Cubs will not win the world series with this team. If they were going to do it they would have done it last year. I'll admit, the Cubs are a dangerous team, especially in the playoffs. They clearly have the best starting pitching in baseball, but they cannot score runs and they have NO bullpen. They beat the Pirates 1-0 today because the Bucs walked in the winning run. Granted, those are the games the White Sox lose on a regular basis, but the Cub should be destroying the Pirates at this point in the season. The Pirates gave up two months ago and have not had anything to play for since May. They are putting a minor league team on the field against Cubs lineup filled with All Stars.
They may get in the playoffs. But are they going to get anywhere? Probably not. And all the Cub fans will go on thinking they will have a chance next year and the same thing will happen. They just don't have all the right pieces.
