Growing Cubs: A Chicago Prospect Podcast

The deadline for final rosters heading into the Rule 5 draft is November 15. We'll cover what Cubs players we think will be exposed to the draft, what players are most likely to be drafted, and who we think are the most intriguing prospects in the Cubs system.

On today's episode, we talk about the recent injuries to Brennen Davis (back) and Alexander Canario (leg, shoulder), and how that impacts the Cubs system. We also delve into the Arizona Fall League and Jordan's all-minor league team.

It is the end of an era. Greg and Jimmy host their final episode of the Growing Cubs Podcast together. They spend the episode looking back on how much has changed, both in the Cubs farm system and for them personally, in the three years they have hosted this show together!

Thank you to all the listeners that made hosting this podcast the most enjoyable part of our week!

It's that time of year again! Jimmy and Greg are back for an extra long episode of the Growing Cubs Podcast where they hand out seventeen awards ranging from Hitter of the Year to The Sean Barry Most Talked About Guy on the Podcast. They also begin the episode with some big news about the podcast.

The main event from this episode is Greg and Jimmy having some fun reviewing their season predictions from episode #92. But before they get into that, they take some time to talk Myrtle Beach and South Bend playoff baseball, Jared Young's MLB debut, and the newly released Arizona Fall League rosters.

Greg and Jimmy are back this week for a long episode of the Growing Cubs Podcast for you folks! First, the guys discuss the recent Cubs debut of Hayden Wesneski and where he fits into the Cubs rotation moving forward. Then, the guys discuss who is hot in the system, who they are looking forward to watching play next year, and the guys who are legit after they broke out this season.

Greg and Jimmy channel their inner Stephen A and Skip this week as they come to you guys with some pressing topics. They start off the show by discussing the difference between spike curves and sweeper sliders and why the Cubs might be pivoting on the pitching development side of things. Then they rank the members of the South Bend rotation - Devers, Hodge, Little, Gallardo, Schlaffer, Palencia, and Franklin. They wrap up the show with the biggest topic of all... will PCA make his way to Chicago in 2023?

We are back for another episode of the Growing Cubs Podcast! Greg and Jimmy take some time to discuss one of the best Myrtle Beach Pelican's season in recent memory, Brennen Davis back on the field, and the recent promotions of Javier Assad and Nicholas Padilla to the Chicago Cubs.

The guys had teased it long enough! After mentioning the Rule Five Draft crunch for nearly a full season, Greg and Jimmy make some predictions as to who the Cubs might protect on the 40-man roster this offseason. Before that, they try not to speculate about Miguel Amaya and Jordan Wicks injuries and spend a fair amount of time praising the work Marquee did with their new Top 25 list.

Greg and Jimmy are back in your ears after all of the trade deadline and draft craziness to give you folks an update on how the current Cubs minor league players are performing throughout the system. First, Greg and Jimmy discuss the new Marquee Sports Network show the Road to Wrigley, and then they highlight some of the players in each affiliate who have performed well in August.
