Cubs fans have a lot to say about the Hoby Milner signing, and it's not the best look for them. Sure, it would have been great for the Cubs to emerge from the Winter Meetings and finalize a trade for Edward Cabrera. However, to react to Milner signing as if it's another example of the Cubs striving for mediocrity (psst, they won 92 games last season) just shows the laziness with how some every Jed Hoyer's steps this offseason.
Don't be ridiculous, this is an insult to the fans. Enough of settling for these trash players, it's a disgrace, it's a mockery@Cubs

To remind everyone, while they may not have had a defined closer for large portions of last season, the Cubs' bullpen was quite good last year.
