Show Notes

The Cubs' post-deadline identity was laid bare in a four-game sweep at the hands of the Brewers, during which they were outscored 37-9. While the poor performance is to be expected given where the roster stands, it should not be accepted as a long-term reality.

On this episode of Onto Waveland, Sahadev and Patrick detail how and why this offseason should—and must—be different than the last one during which the franchise was in a similar position. They also discuss the end of Jake Arrieta's Cubs tenure.
