Is it just me, or do people in Chicago not feel as bad about the recently-ended losing streak and what seems to be the inevitable dreadful remaining season as they might normally be? ?At least among the Cubs fans I know, people are just being cool, knowing that the roster was a mess and knowing that Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer are playing the long game.
And as Patrick Mooney notes in his report at CSNChicago.com, that?s the game being played. Epstein:
?We?ll have to take a realistic look of where we are. And if there are ways to get better, every option has to be on the table ??I?ve always operated under that philosophy,? Epstein said. ?I never understood why there would ever be an untouchable. All you?re doing is limiting your opportunity.?
I guess Starlin Castro would be called untouchable if you put a gun to Theo?s head. But heck, maybe even he goes if some team is dumb enough to back up the prospects truck.
Just a very different mindset from an organization which often talked about rebuilding, but never really went into it whole-hog.
