Monday was the first night of the GM Meetings in San Antonio and Jed Hoyer was there to talk with media members about the Cubs’ direction. It’s actually more about the specific route they’ll take, as the only choice they have is to move forward with their win totals from the past four seasons. Really the last five full seasons, with the pandemic-shortened 2020 campaign standing as their only playoff appearance since the 2018 Wild Card.
The Cubs haven’t won a postseason game since the 2017 NLCS, when they were unceremoniously dispatched by the Dodgers.
