It\u2019s a question as old as the rivalry itself. Who is the better Chicago baseball team? Is it the <\/span>Chicago Cubs<\/span><\/a>, or the <\/span>Chicago White Sox<\/span><\/a>? Unfortunately, each of the team’s long-term history does very little to answer the question. Both teams have three World Series titles under their belt. And if you want to look at recent history, that answer might just slightly lean toward the Cubs. However, it wouldn\u2019t tell the whole story. The Cubs won the World Series most recently in 2016, and the White Sox won it a little over a decade earlier in 2005. Is that enough to decide who the better team is? Baseball fans across the city would say it isn\u2019t. And when it comes to sports, the phrase, \u201cWhat have you done for me lately?\u201d comes into play a lot when determining who\u2019s better. So, after all the new moves in the offseason, is it finally time to say that the White Sox are better than the Cubs this year?<\/span><\/p>\n
