Cubs Bug
First season through on the standard MLB setup and the Cubs reach the World Series.
They lose the first game and then win 3 in a row to leave them one game from winning! Of course they revert to form and lose games 5 and 6 and are 4-0 down in the middle of the 8th in Game 7. Two quick outs and they're 1 out from losing the series and they pull out 5 runs and then a quick 1-2-3 from Cleveland in the top of the 9th and the Cubs win the World Series. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

We do have a warning that this is a fictional world, right?

In my test league for release today, my Cubs were swept out by the Dodgers in the first round in 2016.
After some savvy offseason moves, we won 111 games, and then exorcised all demons, beating the Mets in the Divisional round, being taken to 7 games by the Dodgers in the NLCS, but prevailing to go to the World Series. And in 5 games, defeated Boston to win the World Series. Fictional or not, watching the last game play out in 3d....my heart rate jumped a few times :P |

I am calling it. The Cubs will meet the Indians in this year's World Series. And my money is on the Cubbies to win it in 7 games. Just like Mr. Tony M experienced

I've simmed a few 2016 seasons now, and the Cubs have averaged 104 wins per season (Low win total was 97). They won the NL Central each time, and had the best NL record each time.
They have yet to do better than losing the NLCS 4-1. That was against the Mets. They were swept by Washington twice, and by the Giants. The American League won the World Series each time. Kansas City twice, Houston and Texas once each. I have seen no bug regarding the Cubs. Lol |

The bold has to be a factor. It's not like Cleveland sports teams are known for being clutch or winning either. Correctly modelled by OOTP.
