OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

In the last 50 years, there have been 5 Cubs teams that scored 800+ runs. Can Huey name all of them?

2017
2016
2008
1984
1969
?

3 out of 5 ain't bad:

2008   855 runs
1998   831 runs
2017   822 runs
2016   808 runs
1970   806 runs

1984 checks in at #10 with 762 runs
1969 is way down at #15 with 720 runs

It's still interesting to me that the 2017 group outscored the 2016 team that had Fower at the top and a healthy/productive Zobrist.

DPD, but I was not aware how much offense was down in the early 80s. The 84 Cubs 762 runs were 1st in the NL that year but would've been middle of the pack last year. The 84 Padres were 4th in the NL that year with 686 runs which would've been 13th last year
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015
