Ten games in, it looks like this Cubs team has an unexpected strength.

We’ve always known this starting rotation has some experienced, talented arms in it. We’re talking about Jon Lester, who has three World Series rings to his name. Kyle Hendricks has started some of the biggest games in franchise history. Yu Darvish showed what he was capable late last year for the Cubs, when he went on a run that left us all scratching our heads.

But I don’t think anyone expected Chicago’s starting five to be one of the best in baseball.
