Episode Details

The Cubs are giving Drew Pomeranz a second chance, recalling the veteran lefty from Triple-A Iowa after sending Jordan Wicks back down. Pomeranz, once a key bullpen arm for Chicago, was released by the Angels midseason but showed promise in Iowa’s bullpen. Cubs brass, led by Jed Hoyer, believe his competitive spirit and past success with the team can help him rebound — without heavy expectations. Meanwhile, Wicks’ brief stint in the majors didn’t pan out, leading to his return to the minors. This move signals the Cubs’ willingness to gamble on experience as they push toward the playoffs.
