Episode Details

Clay Holmes is primed for his Cubs debut this Saturday against the Royals after a brutal injury sidelined him since May 15th — but don’t worry, he’s back and ready to rock. Acquired at the trade deadline from the Mets, Holmes was lighting up the stat sheet before the break: a 2.39 ERA, 45 strikeouts, and elite ground-ball prowess — perfect for Chicago’s defense. He’s thrilled to be back with the team, calling it one of the best fits imaginable, and has been steadily rehabbing in the minors, including a recent 73-pitch outing. A two-time All-Star, he’s got serious upside. And hey, this isn’t just about Holmes — the Cubs are rolling out a revamped rotation, with Kevin Gausman also set to make his debut soon. The future looks loaded.
