Are the Cubs even an underdog anymore?

I mean last year, they got to the NLCS and it was a huge deal, because they worked through the a close division and all that. But now this year they have arguably the best 5 man rotation in the majors, and are pretty widely regarded as the best team (or one of the top few) in the NL. They got one of the best first basemen in the off season, and really don't have a big hole in their lineup. If they win the World Series this year, will it really be a huge feat?
