The World Series is over and the Brewers are champions for the first time. It is not a great look for the big-market franchise located roughly 90 miles from Milwaukee. But the Cubs have a huge opportunity to reshape their club before Major League Baseball’s widely anticipated lockout. Now that the offseason is officially here, The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney look at The Brewers Way, how the Cubs approached the last pre-lockout frenzy and why they stepped up to retain a key hitting coach for Pete Crow-Armstrong.
