    ...Cubs have the look of a winner.

    ...this is new for me. (actually following and pulling for a team not named the Yanx)

    I hear ya', If any team deserves to win a world series, its the long overdue Cubs. Maddon is a perfect fit, and Epstein has built a helluva playoff caliber team; who are only going to get better.

    No doubt, this is the year of the Rookie, and were seeing it in the playoffs. Bryant's a Monster.....

    Me too. Rootin' for the Cubs but don't like their manager......
    goes back to his Rays tenure.

    The Cardinals have dominated the Cubbies for decades.........forever.

    New Century........time for change.

    ...^^^CL, from what others have said, there's no in between concerning Maddon...people either love him or hate him.

    If anyone remembers Back to the Future 2. It predicted the Cubs winning the World Series in 2015.

    ...the Cubs not only have a good all around team, but they have a very young core of players that should sustain them for the foreseeable future...Schwarber, Russell, Solar, Bryant, Castro, Baez, and Rizzo are all solid players... and all 26 years of age or younger.

    ...kinda like the Yanx in the late 90's.

    It was actually Cubs beat Miami but either way it would be amazing if they win it this year.

    Which would have been impossible for the WS since they're both NL teams. But yeah if not the Mets (NY) then I'll be pulling for the Cubs.

    Cubs are so young.................I can see them as a playoff team
    for the next 10 to 12 years.

    Theo is no fool. He knew what the Cubs pipeline looked
    like. He walked into a goldmine.
    Trash is a fool. A 'yes' man if there ever was one.

    Totus, I know your comment did not need a response,
    but every chance I get to knock Yankee GM......I'll take! lol

    I agree cage, that group of young players should be around for a while.
