As the Chicago Cubs turn the calendar over to 2017, there’s still a list of things to do for President of Baseball Operation Theo Epstein. What should he focus on heading into next year?
Following their amazing 2016 season, the Chicago Cubs have not only lifted a lifetime of curses but now have people talking about a potential dynasty in Chicago. That’s getting ahead of ourselves a bit, but the potential for said dynasty does exist with this organization. But with that, there’s still some work to be done by Theo Epstein, GM Jed Hoyer and the rest of the front office.
Are there any surprises ahead of us before the Cubs begin Spring Training? A new face, possibly? Epstein probably has much of this list sitting on his desk, but we here at Cubbies Crib just want to do all we can to make 2017 as great as this season–and a little bit easier for Epstein.
