Episode Details

The Cubs just pulled off a blockbuster trade deadline haul, adding elite arms like Kevin Gausman and Clay Holmes to a rotation already stacked with Matthew Boyd and Shota Imanaga. Manager Craig Counsell calls it “a good problem to have,” as the team juggles roles—especially with Holmes potentially shifting back to the bullpen for high-leverage innings. David Peterson continues his strong play, while Edward Cabrera’s return could push them toward a six-man rotation. Colin Rea heads to the pen for now, but may get more starts later. Javier Assad and Braxton Garrett add crucial depth after last postseason woes. The front office made clear: pitching was the top priority, and they’re building for a deep playoff run with every arm they can find.
