Joe Maddon is the only manager in Cubs history to take the team to four consecutive postseason appearances. He’s also the manager who broke the curse and brought home a World Series title after 108 years of frustration. And now, he’s out as manager following a disappointing season that has the team searching for ways to change direction.
Joe and Theo got together last night, split a bottle of wine in Theo's hotel room and came to the conclusion that their five year run together had come to an end.
