About this episode
The Cubs salvaged the series finale Sunday against the Diamondbacks and the Cubs Weekly Podcast broke it all down. Tony Andracki and Andy Martínez break down the Cubs offense and why the Cubs weren’t concerned after scoring just 4 runs in the first three games of the series. The pair discuss Kyle Hendricks’ importance to this team, especially given his injury last season and the uncertain nature of his return, let alone his performance. Also on the pitching side, the duo look at the Cubs’ bullpen, who has stepped into David Ross’ circle of trust and how he is managing workload for a corps of relievers that has been heavily relied on. Later in the podcast, Andracki and Martínez look at Bellinger’s significance to the Cubs’ offense and where they would be without him.
