Chicago Cubs President Jed Hoyer shocked Cubs fans when he flew out to Florida to inform beloved manager David Ross that he had been fired.
Even with the many players the Cubs had acquired, baseball statistics site FanGraphs projected them to finish third place with a 78-84 record.
Through July 7, the Cubs' pitching staff had posted a 3.98 ERA and a 4.00 fielder independent pitching (FIP), and they were also getting run support from their offense, averaging 4.62 runs per game.
