Is it just me, or are there WAY more Cub injuries this year?

Is it just me, or does it seem like there are a LOT more player injuries on the Cubs this season? The link lists the "official" injuries, but with the nagging, day to day junk Lou has had to deal with, this list even seems "light" to me. I have to think that if you took equivalent players off the Cardinals at the same injury rate as the Cubs that the Cubs would be up by 8 games or more... I know many have called the Cubs "underachievers", but all things considered, the OPPOSITE argument could also be made- that they have OVERACHIEVED even with all the lineup changes... What do you all think?
