About this episode
The Cubs made their first big move of the offseason this week, picking up starter Matthew Boyd on a 2-year deal. The lefty is coming off a successful end to 2024 with Cleveland but is less than two years removed from Tommy John surgery. What does his addition mean to the team? Tony Andracki and Andy Martínez break down Boyd and the effects it has on the rest of the Cubs pitching plans this offseason. Later in the podcast, Cubs reliever Porter Hodge recaps his 2024 rookie campaign. He shares some memories from the year, including the no-hitter at Wrigley Field and a thrilling win in Los Angeles, where he dealt with some breathing issues.
