Ricketts are trash!
Writing was on the wall when Boras and KB were crying about money and contracts due to that extra year of control.
KB was coming off a ROY, MVP, & WSMVP. Cubs should’ve locked him up for life!
When they didn’t I knew they were full of isshhh with all that “money don’t matter, we’re committed to winning” talk.
Hindsight is 20/20 but they sacrificed all those cost controlled years for a championship. Payed a lot in pitching and gave away valuable pieces (Eloy, Gleyber, Soler, etc).
Cubs are gonna have a Marlins type fire sale the next couple of years and keep Baez as the face going forward, while Jed mans a slow rebuild without Theo.
