Haha. I don't know. My brother in law is a huge Cubs fan so I sorta root for them for his sake. But they have a huge fan base, but so do LAD, Yanks, & Sox.
ESPN is apparently the new WGN. They've done this with Sox and Yankees in the past (and some years I think they've had Yankees-Sox face off 5 times in a season), but one would think the Dodgers, Cards (who did face the Cubs), Yanks, Sox, Astros, Phillies, Mets - would play a halfway decent or at least comparable opponent to Brewers or Nats over that span in May and June.
Every time I turn on espn on a Sunday night the cubs are playing lol. I am shocked espn is not putting the Red Sox Astro game Sunday night it’s cardianls braves. I won’t be tuning in
Follow the money.
