this is the only guy who was brought in to win and championship and actually did it. the cubs were never going to be a dynasty and anyone who thinks that doesn't know the cub.

theo didn't make the greatest moves in the past few years, and that's going to leave a bad taste but this team will go back to the basement pretty soon.

the unfortunate thing is, in this pandemic world now, the crown jewel of wrigley field can't even be enjoyed.

Exactly. One title makes all the rest not matter.

Most fan bases would love to have had one title in the 2010s.

I would hope that they would try to get some folks out of the Tampa organization to fill the mid-level player development positions. The Tampa roster is a hell of a jigsaw puzzle, but their minor league system feeds it.

All the Cubs have is shuttling four dumbass pitchers back and forth to AAA on the Iowa Shuttle.

By any measure as hyped by Bernsie and the Score the Cubs are a disaster.
