“We’re going to put a good team out there, but of course they’re going to bitch,” Maddon said with a laugh. “Of course they are. I get it. But quite frankly, there are certain things I don’t give a s— about. And that would be one of them.”

The Cubs haven’t announced a starter for Sunday and could just go with a “bullpen game.” Maddon said his team will still compete; it just won’t be with many of the regulars.

“I will put out the guys that I think are the appropriate guys to play based on what’s good for our people, not for their people,” he said. “But we’re going to put a good team out there regardless.”

Maddon sounds like a guy who knows his time as the Cubs skipper is coming to an end. . .
