As things currently stand, the old-school center-field scoreboard in Wrigley Field will never be taken down (it has landmark status). Still, the Cubs seem to have found a way to modernize Wrigley without significantly altering the beautiful aesthetics of the beloved ballpark.

As you can see in the picture above, there's now an LED board just above the right-field basket. It is 75 feet by 7.5 feet. This board will be used to provide more stats and info to the fans, but not as a "jumbotron."

"It's not a video board. It's not a 'kiss cam,'" said Cubs VP of sales and marketing Wally Hayward (in Cubs' "Vine Line" magazine). "It's really about providing content."

I'm sure some traditionalists will scoff at this addition, but I think it's great. The more changes like this that are made, the better the chances are Wrigley is brought relatively up to date while remaining home of the Cubs.
