What do you think that Joe Madden did that help the Chicago Cubs win the World Series, that a lot of previous mangers have failed to do. And that is including him in his first season with the Cubs in 2015. I mean before Joe Madden took them to the playoffs last year, the last 2 Cubs mangers to do so was Dusty Baker (in his first season only), and Lou Piniella in his first 2 seasons, but in both years they were swept out in the first round of the playoffs.

He makes great football games.
I buy a new one every year!

He was also the perfect manager for this very very very young team. I honestly thought they were going to fall apart in 2015 and didn't believe until mid August. Not because of talent but because of age. He kept them loose.
Lou was a good manager but that team didn't have nearly the talent this team does. Dusty is way overrated and poophead.

I think he had the best team the Cubs have ever had.

I live in the Midwest and it is surprising how many true fans of the game do not like Maddon's on field decisions. Especially related to pitching.
I will admit it took a lot of nerve to leave Chapman in during the ninth inning of game 7.

Two guys under Theo that don't get the fanfare are GM Jed Hoyer and Director of Minor Leagues Jason McLeod. I am so happy the Cubs held onto them. You know teams would love to have them.

I think Epstein deserves a lot of the credit, he's won with two cursed teams as well.

Maddon? He made people want to play for him and had the players to do it, due to Epstein.

that is true.
having his top reliever skip town after winning a world series shows he's not the most astute mgr. of talent.

I think Maddon noticed that he was facing half a team, so he told his guys to go for it.
P.S. Shut the fu_ck up about the Cubs.
