And...
I was like, riding this high, we just, we get Joe Maddon, which we'll talk about getting him.
And we signed Jon Lester.
We get you, and I knew how important you were because we just met.
And I'm in some school doing something for Cubs Charities, and I pop off to the media saying, yeah, we're going to win the division this year.
We're going to do it.

It was slowly starting to turn.
I felt bad.
about trading 40 of our rotation again but i knew that was the last piece like we needed another you know going dynamic infielder with things that he could do defensively and and the bat potential there but that's why i came was like hey this is it like if we do our jobs right this is the last time we're gonna have to trade and then it was obvious
by the time we got to 15, like we knew within the organization, within the clubhouse that we were good and that it was time to the outside world didn't know.
That's why 15 with the Cubs and 03 with the Red Sox are two of my favorite years, like the year before.
Yeah, we won the World Series because it was like our little secret.
Like we knew how good we were in 15, but we were in like third place most of the year.
It was building.
You could see the young players developing.
You could see like the leadership ability starting to come out.
And we knew we were good, and we ended up having that unbelievable run in the playoffs.
The Pittsburgh game was huge, the Cardinals series.
