Thanks for the WS that you damn nearly lost with your managing, Maddon. But don't let the door hit you on the way out.
It's not all his fault as the FO has ignored the warts in the lineup and the Cubs need a couple tweaks like a ****ing leadoff hitter and a 2B, along with some bullpen help and 1 starter, preferably a top 3 starter. But it's hard to not see how unmotivated this team is and how ****ing sloppy their play has gotten as the years under Maddon drag on. It's almost like how Matheny's career ended with the Cardinals. The defense has gone to shit, they have led the league in back to back years in outs on the bases, and there is absolutely zero awareness at the plate and they are one of the worst teams at making contact in any situation.
