Chicago Cubs fans are desperately hoping MLB and the players find a way to play this season – because this might be the final year the team’s core remains intact.
The Chicago Cubs were thought to be on the verge of a potential dynasty when they won the World Series in 2016, but it did not happen. Sure, the Cubs reached the NLCS for the third consecutive season in 2017, but despite winning 95 games, they collapsed at the end of 2018 and missed the playoffs entirely last season.
