A Hundred Next Years

This is a blog about the Chicago Cubs written by a guy who walks around with a 1970 Don Kessinger card in his briefcase. That pretty much says it all.

So far this year, as measured by OPS, the Cubs are getting better than league-wide offensive production from their leftfielders, centerfielders, catchers, shortstops and pinch-hitters; the rightfielders, first-basemen, third-basemen, second-basemen, and pitchers just aren’t holding up their ends.

Just as I suspected—it’s those weak-hitting pitchers who have been holding back the Cubs offense all along!
