CHICAGO -- Though they've won the most regular-season games in baseball over the past four seasons, the Chicago Cubs aren't likely to catch much of a break from fans this weekend during their annual winter convention.
Coming off a disappointing finish to 2018, combined with little to no action during this offseason -- while navigating the possible return of maligned and suspended shortstop Addison Russell -- Cubs brass are likely to face tougher questioning than they've had in years.
Front and center will be manager Joe Maddon, who's entering the final year of his contract -- though you wouldn't know it from talking with him.
