I once worked a well-known Chicago nightclub promoter by the name of BJ Murray. In the short time we worked together he introduced me to a phrase he used constantly; “Flip the script.” He would use it when it came to changing the vibe of a venue or trying to tell a DJ to change the type of music he was playing.
“Get that DJ to flip the script!” he would command.
That phrase has been bouncing around my head all season regarding this Cubs team and I truly believe Theo Epstein was ready to make a change after the 2018 campaign.
