KB had 30 fWAR over his 6.5 seasons with the Cubs

That is a HOF pace. That is more than Derrek Lee or Aramis Ramirez had as Cubs and I'd consider them both Cub greats. Both in the Cubs HOF.
So regardless of his ROY, MVP, or WS (all of which obviously strengthen his case) the guy was an all time great Cub.
The fact that it didn't end on a high note and his struggles post Cubs shouldn't tarnish how great of a player he was for the Cubs.
