Well, it looks like the drought is going to reach 100 years because the Cubs season ended yesterday. They put the guys on base to win the game, they just couldn’t bring them around to score and the four double plays obviously didn’t help. And Rich Hill was touched up early and he lasted just three innings. The pen did okay, but by then the game was pretty much over with.
This should be a very interesting offseason as the Cubs will be sold. This will probably hamper their pursuit of free agents but they spent so much money last season that it’s hard to believe they’d go all out for a second season. Plus, the free agent class isn’t all that great.
What a ride though. The Cubs looked like they were done before the first half but put it together and won the division. Yeah it was a weak division, but they made it to the playoffs none the less. Still, to go out like this is tough.
