CubsPS+ #72: Podcasting & the Cubs with Matt Cozzi
03/18/2024

This weekend Matt Cozzi joined me to talk podcasting and the Cubs. We talk a little shop about the differences between a daily and weekly podcast and then got into what we’re hoping to see from the Cubs this season, including the impact of Craig Counsell & Shōta Imanaga’s ability to miss bats. We get into where we see the most variance in outcome on this team and what that could mean for their win projections.

CubsPS+ #71: Cubs Prospects, Draft Prospects & Avoiding Quicksand with Greg Zumach
#71
03/13/2024

This spring we’ve seen a lot from Cubs prospects in spring training games, so Greg Zumach of Northside Bound and the Cubs on Deck podcast joined me for this episode. We talk about what we’ve seen from the Cubs prospects this spring and what that means going forward and then talk about several guys the Cubs might have a shot at with the #14 pick in the 2024 MLB draft. Among those we discuss, since I’m a homer, is Iowa’s Brody Brecht.

#70
03/05/2024

Cody Bellinger is on board and spring training games are rolling! The “add more” part of the offseason is about over, so now it’s time to look ahead to the Opening Day roster, which will be rounding into shape in the next couple of weeks. Today, I focus on the position player half of the active roster and get into who is locked in, who’s on the bubble and which directions the Cubs might go. Will Owen Caissie’s hot spring win him a roster spot? Can PCA or Canario stick? Which non-roster invitees might make the team as a...
