    Cubs to win world series

    16/1 seems to be massive odds for cubs considering there starting rotation of Hamels, Darvish, Lester, Hendricks can shut down any batting offense team in baseball.

    IDK man, the team can't win on the road

    Lame duck coach

    Division still 3 teams within 3 games of 1st

    2nd place = no wildcard

    Rotation seems to be a few years past its prime and bullpen isn't a lights out prop

    Not sure what STL is but that might be a more lucrative play....team a bit more creative in scraping together runs without a 3 run homer.

    16/1 for a reason. They dont have the pitching or hitting pf previous years. Same names, different production.

    Unless they get to play every game at home no chance. They been absolutely horrid away from wrigley, several nl teams can match them starting rotation wise and cubs pen is pretty suspect.

    Maybe if Dodgers,Yankees & Astros fall from the sky. If that don't happen(and we all hope it wouldn't) God bless Wichita State 1970 & Marshall 1970. Then maybe Cubs could be in any World series conversation.

    i personally dont think its the braves year

    so to me it comes down to nl central, west or wild cards

    when i eliminate braves, it seems like fair odds



    (watch the goddamn braves make it now)

    So they can't win on the road?

    Interesting.

    Maybe I will bet them on the road in the playoffs.

    Rizzo isnt much with the shift. That kills them. He's no Keith Hernandez.
