The regular season has hit its final week and as #kap and Gordon record the newest podcast, the #chicagocubs haven't won since clinching a #wildcard berth a week ago in Pittsburgh!  That leads the guys to discuss their concerns about the #cubs as the Wild Card series nears.  What's the biggest concern?  Is it #kyletucker and his calf?  #cadehorton had his stiff back?  #pca and his 2nd half struggles?  All of the above?  The pair discuss Cade Horton's impressive rookie season, we hear from Horton and where they think he'll start in the series.  Plus, grades for the front office and #craigcounsell.  Another spirited edition of the podcast is here for you, right now!

The #chicagocubs are knocking on the door of their 1st postseason berth since 2020.  They can clinch a #wildcard spot as early as Tuesday night.  #kap and GW debate the strengths of a #cubs team headed to their first postseason in 5 years.  Prior to that debate, Kap asks whether you can be a fan of a team while covering a team at the same time.  Gordon says 'no', while Kap of course says, 'that's who I am.'  However, Gordon gives the disclaimer that his job is different and it's to serve the fans as a beat writer of the team.

A great debate, as always on the Cubs REKAP Podcast.

The #chicagocubs announced on Wednesday that former star first baseman, #anthonyrizzo will officially retire on Saturday as a Chicago Cub and immediately become an ambassador.  #kap and Gordon Wittenmyer discuss the honor and why this always felt like it was meant to be.  Plus, the duo discuss the rotation, the health of the club, or lack thereof after closer #danielpalencia hit the IL.  Who would they start in Game 1 of a #wildcard series?  #cadehorton?  #shotaimanaga?  What about a current starter becoming a playoff closer?  The topic does come up.

Kap and Gordon are back as the Chicago Cubs continue their rollercoaster season.  The last 3 months, the Cubs have played just a tick above .500 causing frustration throughout the fanbase and this podcast.  It leads to a discussion and debate about the things that manager Craig Counsell does well as Jed Hoyer targeted him a year and a half ago to make the highest paid manager in the history of the game.  Kap doesn't see it.  Gordon quite frankly doesn't either.  So, is manager Craig Counsell overrated?  The guys discuss and they look ahead.  Is chasing down the NL Central leading Brewers possible?  The schedule says so, the lineup may say otherwise.

The Chicago Cubs seem like they’re in a downward spiral with an offense that can’t get out of their own way. Kap and Gordon Wittenmyer are here to dissect the Cubs in a post trade deadline era. Speaking of, what are their deadline thoughts?  It should come as no surprise that they’re baffled at the lack of will Jed Hoyer and the front office showed. Kap is beside himself and the Cubs are backing that belief up. It’s Kap and Gordon on a spirited edition of the podcast!

It’s officially trade season in #mlb and the #chicagocubs are ready to make a deal as one of baseball’s best teams. #kap and Gordon Wittenmyer discuss the latest with the #cubs, why it’s time to pounce, but why other teams are holding things up more than the Cubs themselves. Is the nature of the added #wildcard making more teams believe they have a shot even though realistically they don’t?  Plus, how important is the addition of multiple starting pitchers now that #jamesontaillon is on the IL for at least a month?  As the All-Star break approaches, what makes a final week successful as they approach the second half?

It’s the Cubs REKAP Podcast, right now!
