Cubs Killing It So Far
As of today, the Cubs are 41-17 (.707 winning percentage). That's 5.5 games better than anybody else (the Nationals and Rangers are both 36-23). But what's stunning is the run differential. The Cubs have scored 313 runs and given up 164, which is a +149 run differential. The second best run differential in all of baseball is the Red Sox at +70. The Cubs are more than double that second best run differential. That's pretty amazing. But I also guess it doesn't matter how you are doing in early June. What really matters is getting to the playoffs and then how you perform in October.
