The Curse of Wrigley Field

Theo Epstein is your new Cubs president.  The Red Sox purge is going to be the Cubs gain as they pick up one of the better administrators in the game.  The Cubs are going to have to compensate both the Red Sox and then the Padres for their GM to get everything done, but I think it’s going to be worth it.  You hate to keep bringing up the 100+ World Series drought but you hope this is the move that finally brings the Cubs their first World Series since 1908.

This team has some holes and it’ll be interesting to see what Epstein does.  It wouldn’t surprise if he does a bit of a start over and starts with the farm club.  That means the Cubs probably have a couple of years to wait to see the gains there.  Still, the World Series is the goal. Epstein has been there and I’m hoping he gets the Cubs there in time.  It’s also a good time to get your Cubs tickets because if Theo starts making moves quick, they’re going to be flying off the shelf.
