The Cubs will open the 2022 season four days from now against the Brewers at Wrigley Field.
I think it’s pretty safe to assume that many of you don’t have high hopes for that game, or any game this year.
In 2006, the Cubs were coming off a losing season after a division title in 2003 and a near-miss in 2004. So hopes were high for a recovery to better baseball in ‘06.
The Cubs opened the season in Cincinnati against the Reds. It didn’t take long for them to take a big lead off Aaron Harang.
