Chicago Cubs: Closing the book on the Joe Maddon era

Since 1903, when the postseason was modernized similar to how it is today, only 11 of 60 managers have been able to lead the Chicago Cubs to a postseason berth. Joe Maddon and Frank Chance are the only two managers in the organization’s history to win a World Series.

This list before you is a ranking of the top five managers in the 144-year history of the Cubs. The list is compiled of post-1900 managers. Cap Anson was one of the team’s early managers, leading them from 1879 to 1897.
