Brett, Patrick and Sahadev discuss another series victory that could have been a sweep. They also push back on the criticism that David Ross is getting from the Cubs fanbase arguing that he's doing his best to keep a taxed bullpen fresh for the home stretch of the season. That leads to an overall discussion on the club's pitching fatigue. They wrap things up by talking about Shohei Ohtani's UCL injury and what it means for his upcoming free agency and how it relates to the Cubs chances of a one-year deal.

The Cubs rebounded from a bad series against the Mets by taking two of three from the Blue Jays in Toronto over the weekend. The schedule over the next two weeks is quite favorable, and then they get a golden opportunity with a three-game series against the Brewers at Wrigley to wrap up the month. In other words, now's the time for the Cubs to move. Brett Taylor, Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney discuss that and more on this episode of Onto Waveland.
