They don't even get to 100. 90-95

So does anyone who said under 100 games care to revise their prediction?

22 so far and it's early May. 100 seems like a safe bet.

What were the Cubs projected? 95? If 95 then given the start they would be projected to be at 100. I think the thing is here is not to assume they are going to go at this rate. I do think they are at 100, I didn't before the season started. 118 .. maybe. Probably not.

They have pitching, hitting, and their Pythagorean record is even better than the actual record. Can't see them having much trouble doing it.

Fangraphs thinks they're on track for 100 after the hot start

i certainly would ask the same question of anybody who predicted less than 90, given that the cubs only have to play .500 ball the rest of the way to reach 90 wins.
