The 2025 Chicago Cubs season is officially in the books, and it’s time to tuck them in for the winter. After a rollercoaster year filled with promise, inconsistency, and questionable decision-making, fans are left wondering: where do we go from here? From the players to management, here’s an honest look at how the Cubs performed in 2025 — and what it means for the team’s future. The season started with optimism. Spring training showed flashes of greatness, particularly from Pete Crow-Armstrong (PCA), who electrified fans before cooling off late.

🎙️ I’ve got to be honest—I’m one pissed-off happy camper. What does that even mean? Hell, I’m not sure myself. But that’s how I feel as we kick off season two of The Shawn Mackey Show .
