  • Cubs Daily Clips
    October 25, 2016 Chicago Tribune New team, new pressure, but Joe Maddon won't change in World Series By Paul Sullivan Joe Maddon has played the roles of philosopher, comedian, zoo director, T-shirt maker and self-help guru in his two years as Cubs manager. But now that he's the first manager to take the Cubs to a World Series since Charlie Grimm in 1945, his sole task is to outmaneuver Indians manager Terry Francona, one of the best in the business. The pressure is on, and we all know what Maddon thinks about pressure. "Why would you ever want to run away from that?" Maddon said before Monday's workout at Progressive Field. "The alternative right now is I could be in Tampa cooking steaks in my backyard, making sure DirecTV is working properly. "I'd much prefer this reality, so I plan to enjoy it. I want our guys to enjoy the moment. I want them to take mental snapshots of everything we're doing out here. It's really difficult to get into this position — really difficult. "This is fortunately my third time I've had a chance to do this, where our players, a lot of them it's the first time. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Go play your game. It's another game." Maddon was a coach on the 2002 Angels team that beat the Giants in a seven-game World Series, and he managed the Rays to the 2008 World Series, where they lost to the Phillies in five games. Ben Zobrist, who played under Maddon with the Rays, said there's no difference between the old model and the 2016 version.
