So, what is going to happen with the 2023 Cubs? Where are they going to wind up? In the postseason or just done with the season? At the time of posting this, they are ½ game ahead of Miami for the third – and final – wild card spot. But will we keep it?
When I am feeling negative, 2023 makes me think of 2004. We collapsed the last week of the season, losing the wild card spot we had in our control at the beginning of the week. Sammy opted out of the lineup and left Wrigley Field before the last game was over. He hasn’t been back since.1 Things went so bad our announcers even quit after the season. The only good thing that happened was that, on Sunday, after we were eliminated, Greg Maddux, who didn’t leave early, won his 15th game of the season, extending his streak of consecutive15-win seasons to seventeen, though I am not sure he cared at the time.
