2018 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 160
This is the day that I have to set expectations. First, a few weeks ago I made a comment. That comment hasn’t changed for me. If the Cubs win 95-ish games and do not win the National League Central, I’m not going to lose sleep over it. If you read my comments, you’ll know that I advocate a tip of the cap. A player or team with exceptional performance should receive a tip of the cap and not ire. The Cubs won their 94th game Friday. I’m not going to be one of the cranky people if things unravel over the weekend. I won’t think less of you if you are one of those who is upset. I get it, this is a special team. Obviously, the off-season acquisitions of Yu Darvish, Tyler Chatwood and Brandon Morrow failed spectacularly in their own ways. So I see why some might be frustrated.
