The 2024 Chicago Cubs season is the 153rd season of the Chicago Cubs franchise, the 149th in the National League, and the Cubs' 109th season at Wrigley Field. The Cubs are led by first-year manager Craig Counsell and play as members of Major League Baseball's National League Central.
The Cubs finished the 2023 season 83–79 to finish in second place in the Central division, nine games behind the Brewers. [1] After being in position for a wild card spot through most of August and September, the Cubs finished one game out of the final wild card spot. [2] It marked the third consecutive season they failed to make the playoffs.
On November 6, 2023, the Cubs fired manager David Ross after four seasons. [3] Craig Counsell, who had managed the Milwaukee Brewers for the previous nine years, was named the new manager on the same day in a surprising move. [4] There had been no prior indications that the Cubs would fire Ross or were interested in hiring Counsell. [5] The Cubs gave Counsell a contract for five years at $8 million per year, making him the highest paid manager in MLB history. [6]
On January 2, 2024, the Cubs named Ryan Flaherty the team's bench coach. [7] Other new coaches included Darren Holmes as the bullpen coach, Mark Strittmatter as major league field coordinator, and assistant hitting coach John Mallee, who had previously been the Cubs' hitting coach from 2015 to 2017.

The 2024 Chicago Cubs season is the 153rd season of the Chicago Cubs franchise, the 149th in the National League, and the Cubs' 109th season at Wrigley Field. The Cubs are led by first-year manager Craig Counsell and play as members of Major League Baseball's National League Central.
The Cubs finished the 2023 season 83–79 to finish in second place in the Central division, nine games behind the Brewers. [1] After being in position for a wild card spot through most of August and September, the Cubs finished one game out of the final wild card spot. [2] It marked the third consecutive season they failed to make the playoffs.
On November 6, 2023, the Cubs fired manager David Ross after four seasons. [3] Craig Counsell, who had managed the Milwaukee Brewers for the previous nine years, was named the new manager on the same day in a surprising move. [4] There had been no prior indications that the Cubs would fire Ross or were interested in hiring Counsell. [5] The Cubs gave Counsell a contract for five years at $8 million per year, making him the highest paid manager in MLB history. [6]
On January 2, 2024, the Cubs named Ryan Flaherty the team's bench coach. [7] Other new coaches included Darren Holmes as the bullpen coach, Mark Strittmatter as major league field coordinator, and assistant hitting coach John Mallee, who had previously been the Cubs' hitting coach from 2015 to 2017.
