Onto Waveland: A show about the Chicago Cubs

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Javy Báez's two-homer game on Monday was a much-needed performance from a player who will go a long way toward determining what kind of season the Cubs end up having. Brett Taylor, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney pronounce him back, with tongue only somewhat in cheek, on this episode of Onto Waveland. The guys also discuss the Cubs' woes with the bases loaded, the team's sudden rotation depth, and more.Rundown0:41 Javy is Back!5:55 Why Can't the Cubs Hit with the Bases Loaded?12:38 A Season Where Things Can't Even Out17:41 The Rotation is Suddenly Deep21:38 José Quintana's RoleFollow Brett on Twitter: @BleacherNationFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaFollow Patrick on Twitter: @PJ_MooneyGet a free 7-day trial to The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.

The Cubs are in the midst of a rivalry week, taking three of five from the Cardinals before hosting the White Sox for the first of two series between the two teams this season. Brett Taylor, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney discuss the Cardinals series, the team's ability to win despite uneven offensive performances, Craig Kimbrel's resurgence, the need for a lefty in the bullpen, the White Sox series, and more on this episode of Onto Waveland.Rundown3:31 The Cubs Won the Cardinals Series...But Did It Feel Like It?7:30 Is Craig Kimbrel Back?10:15 The Need for a Lefty Reliever15:48 White Sox Offense the Best the Cubs Have Faced to Date?18:16 The Uniqueness of THIS Series with the Sox25:43 The White Sox' TurnaroundFollow Brett on Twitter: @BleacherNationFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaFollow Patrick on Twitter: @PJ_MooneyGet a free 7-day trial to The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.

It had to happen eventually, right? The Cubs finally suffered their first setback of the season, dropping four straight games to the Brewers and Cardinals. They still have a comfortable lead in the NL Central, however, and got back on track in Monday's nightcap against the Cardinals, thanks to some pinch-hit heroics from David Bote (who else?). Brett Taylor, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney discuss slow starts for Jaiver Báez and Kris Bryant, a small hiccup for the pitching staff, issues with the offense, the dominance of Central Division relievers, the bright outlook for the Cubs, and more on this episode of Onto Waveland.Rundown0:50 David Bote Does it Again3:47 Balancing 21 Games Representing More than One-Third of the Season5:26 How Does a Player Get Comfortable With a Slow Start in a 60-Game Season?8:10 Slow Starts for Kris Bryant and Javier Báez10:20 Possible Extensions for Bryant and Báez13:01 The Cubs' Offensive Numbers20:20 A Hiccup for the Rotation23:43 Handling Losing and High-Leverage Moments30:04 A Tangent on Spin RateFollow Brett on Twitter: @BleacherNationFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaGet a free 7-day trial to The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.

After an unexpected four-day layoff caused by the Cardinals' ongoing COVID-19 crisis, the Cubs returned to the field on Tuesday, facing a step up in competition against the Indians. They swept the two-gamer in Cleveland, then kicked off this weekend's four-game set with the Brewers with another win. At 13-3, the Cubs have the best record in the majors, and they already have a stranglehold of the NL Central. On this episode of Onto Waveland, Brett Taylor and Sahadev Sharma discuss Kyle Hendricks, Yu Darvish, Ian Happ, José Quintana, the upcoming series with the Cardinals, the Cubs already being near-locks for the postseason, and more.Rundown0:28 Bulls Fire Jim Boylen2:04 Zach Plesac, What Are You Doing?4:26 No Rust after the Four-Day Layoff6:20 The Rotation Remains Lights-Out11:28 What Happens When José Quintana Returns?13:22 How Will the Cubs Handle the Expected Five Games in Three Days Against the Cardinals?17:57 A Team Effort from the Offense, Led by Ian Happ21:28 The Luxury of Being 13-3 in a 60-Game Season27:00 Upcoming Starts for Tyler Chatwood and Alec MillsFollow Brett on Twitter: @BleacherNationFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaGet 40% off your first-year subscription to The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.

The Cubs return to the field Tuesday after four days off because of COVID-related postponements in St. Louis. The Indians, too, have had their issues, with pitchers Mike Clevinger and Zach Plesac in quarantine after breaking protocol and going out on the town in Chicago over the weekend. Brett Taylor, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney discuss that on this episode of Onto Waveland. They also muse about the possibility of last weekend's Cardinals series not getting made up, and the possibility that 7-inning doubleheaders benefit the Cubs.Rundown3:18 Mike Clevinger and Zach Plesac Complicate This Week for the Cubs10:09 Cubs-Indians Two-Game Series in Cleveland15:18 Cubs Avoiding the Pitfalls20:44 Will MLB Reschedule the Postponed Cubs-Cardinals Series?29:04 Do 7-Inning Doubleheaders Benefit the Cubs?Follow Brett on Twitter: @BleacherNationFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaFollow Patrick on Twitter: @PJ_MooneyGet 40% off your first-year subscription to The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.

All you can do is beat the team in front of you, which the Cubs have done 10 of 13 times this season. It must be said, however, that they haven't played the toughest competition in those 13 games. Michael Beller, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney consider the Cubs record against the company they've kept on this episode of Onto Waveland. They also talk about David Ross' role in the team's hot start, and the challenging turn in the schedule over the next two weeks.NOTE: This episode was recorded before news broke that another Cardinals player tested positive for COVID-19, postponing Friday's game. We present the podcast in its entirety and are staying on top of this fluid situation.Rundown1:28 Judging the Cubs' 10-3 Start4:20 Have the Cubs Re-Found Themselves?6:18 David Ross Has Earned the Praise15:01 Ball Bouncing in the Cubs' Favor17:13 What to Watch for Over the Next Two Weeks20:32 The Weekend Ahead in St. Louis (We Hope)24:42 Cubs' Creation of a Clubhouse Outside the ClubhouseFollow Michael on Twitter: @MBellerFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaFollow Patrick on Twitter: @PJ_MooneyGet a free 7-day trial at The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.

The Cubs enter play on Tuesday with the second-best record in the majors at 8-2 (the Yankees are 8-1). They've won eight of their first 10 thanks largely to the starters and offense covering up what has been an abysmal bullpen. On this episode of Onto Waveland, Brett Taylor, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney get into that bullpen—again—this time highlighting the emergence of Rowan Wick. They also discuss Kris Bryant's return, the possibility of José Quintana rejoining the team as a reliever when he comes off the IL, this weekend's series with the Cardinals possibly being in peril, and more.Rundown0:52 Bracing for a Possible COVID-Related Postponement This Weekend8:29 Alec Mills Deals, but the Bullpen Remains an Issue11:36 Would David Ross Have Pulled the Plug on Craig Kimbrel This Quickly in a 162-Game Season?12:37 The Relievers Emerging as Part of Ross' Circle of Trust16:14 Could José Quintana Return as a Reliever?22:45 Kris Bryant's Return to the Lineup27:31 Onto Waveland is Happy for Jorge SolerFollow Brett on Twitter: @BleacherNationFollow Sahadev on Twitter: @sahadevsharmaFollow Patrick on Twitter: @PJ_MooneyGet 40% off your first-year subscription to The Athletic by visiting theathletic.com/ontowaveland Hosted on Acast.
