Rodríguez on judging success in 2017: "The season's not over"

What constitutes success for the Chicago Fire in 2017?

It's a tricky question with the season ongoing. From an outside perspective, the team's turnaround this year, going from back-to-back last-place finishes to a spot in the Audi 2017 MLS Cup Playoffs wrapped up and a chance to move as high as the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference on Decision Day presented by AT&T makes it certainly more successful than in quite some time.

But Fire general manager Nelson Rodriguez explained that the team is not prepared to sit back and remain content with what has been accomplished.
