Brett and Michael are back for the twelfth episode of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast (Presented by Ankin Law)! They preview the BN Pre-Game Party at HVAC in Wrigleyville on May 17 before Cubs-White Sox, presented by Ankin Law. Then it's a dive into the week on the field: the Cubs dropped a tough series to the Mets in New York but bounced back with a series win over the Marlins at home.

They also touch on Cade Horton’s big-league debut (4 IP, 5 K, 3 ER), the cooling of the Cubs’ offense after a red-hot start, and what Ian Happ’s IL stint means for the lineup going forward. Plus, the promotion of Moises Ballesteros and how his bat might fit into the DH shuffle while Happ is sidelined.

A special thank you to Ankin Law for sponsoring this podcast!
