Chicago Cubs Quarter Century Team: Who makes the cut?

This week on Bricks Behind the Ivy, Pat and Jeff reveal their Chicago Cubs Quarter Century Teams — building the ultimate lineup using Cubs players from the past 25 years!

 

Inspired by an article from The Athletic by Patrick Mooney and Sahadev Sharma, the guys come in with their teams already built and reveal them to each other live for authentic reactions, debate, and a bit of nostalgia.

 

They also cover:

• Nico Hoerner getting ejected

• Their Hitter and Pitcher of the Week

• Plenty of strong (and hilarious) takes on Cubs past and present
