Analysis

Team Synopsis: Chicago Cubs

The Chicago Cubs, established in 1870, are one of Major League Baseball's oldest and most storied franchises. Based in Chicago, Illinois, they play their home games at the iconic Wrigley Field, known for its ivy-covered outfield walls and classic charm. The Cubs are part of the National League Central Division and have a passionate fanbase that has endured a long history of highs and lows, including a 108-year championship drought that ended with their World Series victory in 2016.

Interesting Factoid: The Cubs are known for their "Curse of the Billy Goat," a superstition that arose after a fan was famously ejected from a game in 1945 for bringing his pet goat. The Cubs did not win the World Series again until 2016, leading many to believe the curse was responsible for their long championship drought.

Something Not Well Known: Despite their historical struggles, the Cubs have one of the most iconic mascots in sports history—Clark the Cub. Introduced in 2014, Clark was designed to engage younger fans and bring a family-friendly atmosphere to the games, showcasing the team's focus on community and tradition.

Team Performance Analysis (April-May 2017):

The Cubs started the 2017 season with a mix of results, showcasing both strength and vulnerability. They had a particularly strong showing against division rivals like the Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati Reds, winning multiple games in series. However, they also faced setbacks, notably against the Pittsburgh Pirates and the St. Louis Cardinals, where they suffered several defeats.

In total, they played 30 games from April to May 2017, winning 16 and losing 14. Highlights included a strong offensive performance, notably a 16-4 win against the Arizona Diamondbacks on August 1st, and a series of wins against the New York Mets, where they demonstrated their ability to bounce back after losses. The Cubs' inconsistent performance, especially against teams like the Philadelphia Phillies and the Dodgers, indicated areas needing improvement as they sought to defend their 2016 championship title.
