You arent close to replicating the Cardinals success from 2004 to 2013.

Or SF or LA's.

You are damn near the Royals.
The Royals have 2 pennants.

There's an argument that the Royals have a MORE successful recent history than the Cubs.

That said, I think Chicago picks off another pennant over the next 3 years and if they get the WS out of that, the whole calculus of this era changes.

They won 95 games last season with Bryant hurt/mediocre all year, Rizzo mediocre most of the year, Contreras regressing and getting NOTHING from Darvish or Chatwood. It's damn impressive that they got to 95 with what they dealt with last year.

Then again, they're closing in on a $200 million payroll so anything less than that is a pretty poor ROI.

But they have 100 win ability and will for the next 2-3 seasons.
