1880 chicago white stockings season
the chicago cubs franchise began as the chicago white stockings in 1876, with albert spalding as the franchise's inaugural manager. the team's second manager, cap anson, set team records in games managed (2,194), seasons managed (18), and wins (1,242). frank chance, part of the famous tinker to evers to chance double-play combination—all of whom managed the franchise at some point—has the best winning percentage in club history (.664) and led the cubs franchise to world series victories in 1907 and 1908. during the early 1960s, owner philip k. wrigley utilized a "college of coaches", using a rotating system of multiple managers rather than a single field leader. lou piniella managed the cubs from 2007–2010 and led the team to consecutive postseason appearances in 2007 and 2008, becoming the first manager to lead the team to multiple postseasons since charlie grimm's four appearances from 1932–1935. dale sveum was hired for the 2012 season and fired after the 2013 season. rick renteria replaced sveum as manager. sveum was fired after the 2014 season. on november 2, 2014, joe maddon was named the club’s 60th manager.
