Is there a pattern in Cubs history that explains their struggles this year? We'll found out today as we go by the numbers...
The Chicago Cubs have always had problems opening decades with good seasons. Since the early part of the 1900s, the first year of each decade has been a struggle. Let's check this theory out.
Cubs Record in First Year of the Decade
2010: 32-41*
2000: 65-97
1990: 77-85
1980: 64-98
1970: 84-78
1960: 60-94
1950: 64-89-1
1940: 75-79
Place in the Division
2010: 4th*
2000: 6th
1990: 4th
1980: 6th
1970: 2nd
1960: 7th
1950: 7th
1940: 5th
Games Back of First
2010: 8.5*
2000: 30
1990: 18
1980: 27
1970: 5
1960: 35
1950: 26.5
1940: 25.5
Playoffs?
2010: ???
2000: No
1990: No
1980: No
1970: No
1960: No
1950: No
1940: No
*= This season, still in progress
So in the last eight decades, the Cubs have only started off with a winning season once! They have failed to make the postseason in the first year of every decade since they made it to the World Series in 1910.
And remember, the numbers don't lie!
