Cubs Second-Round Pick Burl Carraway Joins Onto Waveland
Left-handed relief pitcher Burl Carraway could be at Wrigley Field sooner rather than later, but he's on Onto Waveland right now. The Cubs' second-round pick talked with Patrick Mooney about his draft-day experience, his first few days with the organization, the possibility of him making the 2020 taxi squad, and more. Plus, Patrick and Michael Beller further discuss the contours of the 2020 season.
