That’s because the Cubs traded away their farm system and have nothing left to offer.

The difference is that Almora can play defense and has functional legs.

Almora should play against lefties. Zobrist is really washed up though.

Yeah, it’s hard to be upset when we finally won the WS after 108 years.

I just hope they improve the bullpen in the offseason.

Edit: I do think the Nationals confiscating “W” flags is silly though. I’d say for the Cubs to retaliate somehow but there won’t be any Nationals fans at Wrigley anyway.

It's over, folks. It's Scherzer next and this postseason has been notorious for having ace pitchers perform exactly as well as you'd expect them to.
