Updated:

The Chicago Cubs climbed back to the top of the NL Central Division during the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. Chicago finished the 60-game season with the fourth best record in the National League. However, the Miami Marlins’ exposed an average Cubs offense. Miami limited the Cubs to a single run in a two-game sweep of the best-of-three wildcard round. During the regular season, Chicago had the fourth worst batting average in baseball, but was reasonably efficient at plating runs. However, Chicago was a collective 1 for 13 with runners in scoring position in the two playoff losses. Familiar faces from the Cub’s World Series Championship are still in the lineup. Nevertheless, in this age of free agency Chicago is at a point where holes are being exposed.

2021 Chicago Cubs Analysis

The Cub’s pitching staff was heavily responsible for the team’s success in 2020. Chicago posted an ERA of just under 4.00. The combination of efficient scoring and pitching helped the Cubs make the playoffs. However, core weaknesses were exposed by the Marlins. Kyle Schwarber and Alberto Alomar Jr. left via free agency, but Chicago only added one top-level hitter, Joc Pederson. The Cubs made a deal for Zach Davies and signed once highly-prized pitching prospect Kohl Stewart. Davies will replace Yu Darvish, but Stewart hasn’t pitched in a year, opting out for 2020. Chicago opens 2021 as a playoff contender. However, Javier Baez and Kris Bryant will become agents. As the season progresses, performance will decide if the Cubs choose to dismantle and rebuild, or opt for an in-season reboot.
