Episode Details

The Cubs are in freefall on the mound, with five starters sidelined and the front office scrambling before the trade deadline. Jed Hoyer calls it the deepest pitching crisis of his 25-year career, as key arms like Ben Brown and Edward Cabrera go down with injuries, and Justin Steele’s comeback is still months away. Yet they swept the Mets — proof the offense and defense can still carry the load. With a crucial Brewers series looming, the Cubs are hunting trades and hoping internal players rise to the occasion as they redefine their identity in the face of a historic pitching collapse.
