Three-Time World Series Champion Theo Epstein Officially Resigns From Cubs

The announcement came as a surprise

Theo Epstein stepped down as the Chicago Cubs president of baseball operations Tuesday.

Epstein enjoyed an extremely impressive run in Chicago from 2011-20 which saw the Cubs win their first World Series title in 108 years in 2016.

The 46-year-old helped break the Boston Red Sox’s curse in 2004 and also took home the 2007 World Series prior to joining the Cubs.
