What happened: The Cubs brought back members of their 2016 championship roster to Wrigley Field, marking a decade since the team ended a 108-year title drought. Theo Epstein, the front-office architect of that roster, was among those who returned for the reunion.

Why it matters: The 2016 title remains the signature moment in modern Cubs history, and the anniversary gathering underscores how that roster is still tied to the franchise's identity a decade later.

What to watch: The Cubs host the Twins at Wrigley Field as part of their current homestand.
