On Thursday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot told the Cubs to slow their roll.

After Cubs president of business operations Crane Kenny expressed optimism over fans potentially attending games this summer, the leader of the nation’s third-largest city had a very different message for those dreaming of returning to Wrigley Field soon.

“Whether it’s a thousand, or 800, or 80, there’s got to be a plan for safety and we’re happy to engage in that discussion with all the sports teams,” Lightfoot said.
