“Maybe you had too much too fast or just overplayed your part.” – Grateful Dead, Shakedown Street
Though we’ve barely had a chance to collect our breaths following the Dodgers championship run, the 2025 season commences this afternoon with the GM Meetings. Last year’s November surprise swapped David Ross for Craig Counsell, though the results were nearly identical. Counsell finished with the same record as Ross, but the Cubs fell further behind in their pursuit of a division championship or Wild Card berth.
Still, the Cubs are a team to keep an eye on at this week’s event in San Antonio.
