SAN DIEGO -- Theo Epstein visited the Chicago Cubs during their series in San Diego on Tuesday, saying he is providing "moral support" for the reigning World Series champions amid their ongoing struggles and insisting no drastic changes are imminent.
The Cubs president was on the West Coast scouting and decided to watch the final two games of the Padres series.
"It's more important to be around when the team is struggling than when they're doing well," Epstein said. "Showing moral support can be good from time to time. Take the heat off of others when the team is scuffling.
