Chicago Cubs Enter Season As Champs, Watch Hype Videos Here

By

"The Chicago Cubs are your World Series Champions," that's a line Cubs fans wasn't expecting to hear in their lifetime. But here we are, after 108 years of misery, the Chicago Cubs are the at the top of the MLB. And as the next season draws near, fans are once again hyped up for another season of baseball.

Last season, the Cubs had a very promising start especially cruising through the month of April which secured them the first place. And despite Kyle Schwarber's knee injuries against the Diamondbacks, the Chicago Cubs were on fire.

Not even a losing streak couldn't stop the the Chicago Cubs as impressive play on the second half of the season allowed them to clinch the division title. Clinching the division title was something they haven't done since 2008 which proves that the season may hold something special for the Cubs.
Unfortunately, during the 2008 season, the Chicago Cubs got swept in the LDS which put a sour note on an otherwise remarkable season. Help first came when then Red Sox General Manager Theo Epstein left and was hired to become President of the Chicago Cubs. Epstein's arrival signaled the start of a new era for the Chicago Cubs and another blessing came in form of Anthony Rizzo.

Anthony Rizzo was acquired by the Chicago Cubs in a four player trade which included pitcher Andrew Cashner. Immediately Rizzo impressed Cubs fans with his home runs and defensive prowess which led to the World Series. Moreover, Cubs fans admire Anthony Rizzo for his acts of charity among Chicago locals like giving tickets to kid who was beaten according to chicagonow.com.

Along the way, Rizzo got help with his young teammates. These include Kris Bryant, Wilson Contreras, Javier Baez, Kyle Hendricks among other. What makes the Chicago Cubs run surprising was that the team were made up mostly young players.

Now is the time for a fresh start. The Chicago Cubs are now the defending champions and will look to repeat. Meanwhile here are a few videos to hype you for next season courtesy of cubbiescrib.com.
