The goat sacrifice worked.

you do realize you just jinxed the next game by mentioning this one, right?

Yeah, these curses are funny things. They'll give you hope just to rip it away from you later.

I expected a split in STL, I just had the games backwards. Arrieta should take Monday, then we'll see.

crazy, you're totally tempting a horrific downfall for the cubbies
Nah, dawn of a new age has arrived.
I still make curse jokes and a lot of people are still acting like they have battered wife syndrome, but the organization has completely retooled and made a fresh start.

You know Theo's methods... accept the lean years to build an amazing pipeline using heavy mathematical analytics. He's done just that, in this case focused on power hitting. They are deep with more of the same waiting in the wings. And it's reported that they just signed a Cuban phenom for an outfielder that had originally committed to the Giants.
Now add three game changing factors. 1) The coup that landed Maddon here. 2) The short term cash generated by large increases in advertising with the renovations (I hate the jumbotron but it makes money). 3) In 2020 the Cubs will have all media consolidated like the Red Sox, Yankees, and Dodgers (I think) do. They may have there own broadcast network, maybe not, but the per game revenues from total media control are estimated to jump from $250k a game to over $1 Million.The Chicago Cubs have made a splash in the international market by signing Cuban outfielder Eddy Julio Martinez, according to multiple reports.
The 6-foot-2, 195-pound Martinez, 20, reportedly had agreed to a $2.5 million contract last weekend with San Francisco but was believed to receive a $3 million deal with the Cubs.
They have become structured to compete at a high level for a very long time. They are just ahead of the schedule, but it's not a flash in the pan.
