When the Chicago Cubs and New York Mets got together for the 2015 NLCS, some thought it wouldn’t be the first of these matchups. As we head into 2018, the Cubs have been to two more NLCS and won a World Series. The Mets? Not so much. Jacob deGrom has been the only one of their staff to stay healthy, while everyone else is battling back from some type of injury. It just goes to show how quickly a window can close, no matter how good the team looks for years to come.
The offseason isn’t over yet, and the Cubs are still on the lookout for another starter.
