He's not even a Cub. He had way less than half his wins as a Cub.

Agreed.

I'm not even sure they should have retired 31 for Maddux...

They shouldn't have. That one is even worse than retiring Buerhle's number.

I always thought it was cool that for the longest time the only retired Cubs number was Banks. That's it. Mr. Cub, one flag, #14 waving from the foul pole.
