The 2015 Chicago Cubs season was the 144th season for the franchise, the 140th in the National League and the 100th at Wrigley Field. They began the season on April 5, 2015 in a first-ever night game home opener against the St. Louis Cardinals at partially renovated Wrigley Field, and finished on October 4, 2015 on the road against the Milwaukee Brewers.

The Cubs finished the season with the third-best record in baseball which was also the third-best in their division, finishing one game behind the Pittsburgh Pirates and two games behind the division winner, the rival St. Louis Cardinals. As a result, they qualified for the second wild card spot for the 2015 postseason and defeated the Pirates in the 2015 National League Wild Card Game and faced the Cardinals in the Division Series. The Cubs advanced to play the New York Mets in the National League Championship Series. It was the Cubs' first appearance in the NLCS since 2003. However, they were swept in four games and were unable to make it to their first World Series since 1945.

Forbes magazine valued the Cubs at $1.8 billion in 2015, ranking them 17th out of all sports franchises in the world, and the fifth highest in all MLB.[1] The Cubs attendance for the regular season was 2,959,812, up over 300,000 from the previous year.[2]

Offseason

Stadium changes

On Monday, September 29, one day after the conclusion of the 2014 season, a $575 million four-year renovation project to Wrigley Field was begun. The bleachers in left and right field were expanded, the stadium was extended further onto both Waveland and Sheffield Avenues, and seven new outfield signs were installed along with a 5,700-square-foot jumbotron scoreboard in the left field bleachers and a 2,400 square foot video scoreboard in the right field bleachers. The parking lots along Clark Street were excavated for underground players' locker rooms and lounges.[3][4]

Trades and acquisitions

Coaching changes

The Cubs decided not to retain Mike Brumley as the assistant hitting coach. Bill Mueller, the hitting coach, resigned over the decision. On October 9. 2014 John Mallee, formerly the Astros hitting coach, was hired as his replacement. Eric Hinske is the assistant hitting coach and Doug Dascenzo was signed to replace him as first base/outfield coach.[14] In late October 2014 quality assurance coach Jose Castro resigned to work with Atlanta Braves hitting coach Kevin Seitzer.[15] On October 31, the Cubs fired first year manager Rick Renteria.[16] On Monday, November 3, The Cubs announced the signing of Joe Maddon to a 5-year contract as manager of the team.[17] Former Cub Henry Blanco was hired to be the quality assurance coach on November 22.[18] At the start of the 2015 season, Brandon Hyde went from 2014 season bench coach to first base and Doug Dascenzo was the outfield coach. Dave Martinez started the year as bench coach. On February 24, 2015, Manny Ramirez was hired as a batting consultant, splitting time between Chicago and AAA Iowa.[19] Also, Kevin Youkilis was given a part-time job as a scouting and player development consultant.

Broadcast changes

In June 2014, the Cubs announced an end to their radio play-by-play history on WGN (720-AM) radio which dates back to 1924. In a new partnership with CBS Radio, the radio broadcast of their games moved to WBBM (780-AM) for the 2015 season.[20]

The Cubs finalized a new television broadcast agreement with long-time over-the-air carrier WGN-TV (Channel 9), in which the station will carry a reduced slate of 45 games per season. The team also signed a new broadcast agreement with ABC-owned station WLS-TV (Channel 7), in which they will show 25 games annually;[21] this deal replaces WCIU-TV as the Cubs' secondary over-the-air television outlet. Both agreements with WLS and WGN will run through the end of the 2019 season. Play-by-play announcer Len Kasper and color commentator Jim Deshaies will become employees of the Cubs rather than WGN-TV.[22]

As a result of a new programming strategy implemented by Tribune Media for WGN America, the cable superstation will no longer televise Cubs games (as well as that of the Chicago White Sox and Bulls) to a national audience, as of January 2015. This marks the end of a 36-season run of Cubs games televised on the national version of WGN-TV.

The Chicago Cubs have created affiliate stations to complement the 2015 television and radio schedule.[23]
