Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward won a National League Central title in St. Louis. He was with the Cardinals when they made their fifth consecutive postseason appearance.
So when it comes to the Cardinals-Cubs rivalry, he advises his new teammates that they have some work to do.
"If you ask me about the rivalry this year, I feel like I'm on the side that has a lot of work to do as far as being established in the playoffs," Heyward told reporters in Chicago, where the Cubs fell to the Rockies 2-0 Sunday.
