The Cubs clinched the NL Central Saturday night in the middle of a loss, which is so 2020.

If I had told any of you that the Chicago Cubs would be crowned NL Central Champs on September 26 way back in February, everyone would have assumed David Ross’ first year as skipper of the Cubs went about as flawlessly as possible. We also would have assumed that the young core had phenomenal years as they marched into their prime.

Fast forward to September 26, and the Cubs are Central Champs, but the way we’ve gotten here… wow, this has been nothing short of bizarre, unorthodox, and surreal.
