...more August 30, 2024CubsPS+ #87: Savage Kyle & Trying/Not Trying In this episode, I dive deep into the current state of the Cubs, focusing heavily on Kyle Hendricks, his career, and what might be his final days with the team. I start by reflecting on the Cubs' season, highlighting their ups and downs, and the precarious position they find themselves in as they fight to stay above .500 and keep their playoff hopes alive.
I discuss the critical role Kyle Hendricks has played over the years, from his iconic performances in the 2016 postseason to his steady presence on the mound. Despite his struggles this season, I emphasize the respect and admiration I have for him and why it’s essential for the Cubs to find a graceful exit for him, allowing him to retire on a high note, ideally as a Cub for life.
Additionally, I talk about the team's recent roster moves, including the departures of Hector Naras and David Bote, and the uncertain future of other players like Drew Smyly. I touch on the financial aspects of the team, especially regarding the Competitive Balance Tax (CBT), and how the Cubs are navigating the fine line of trying to win now while also planning for the future.
I also explore the potential September call-ups, focusing on young talents like Jordan Wicks, Brandon Birdsell, and position players like Owen Caissie and Moises Ballesteros. These players represent the future of the Cubs, and I speculate on who might get a shot at the majors as the season winds down.
Throughout the episode, I weave in personal anecdotes, including how Kyle Hendricks has been a significant figure in my baseball journey, both as a fan and as a father watching my son develop as a pitcher. This episode is as much about baseball as it is about the emotions and memories tied to being a Cubs fan.
Finally, I look ahead to the crucial upcoming games against the Nationals, Yankees, and Dodgers, and what the Cubs need to do to keep their playoff hopes alive. It’s a time of trying while not fully trying, a delicate balance that will define the rest of the season.
