BP Wrigleycast Episode 14: Domination, Zobrist Coming Alive, a AAA Review

The Cubs are absolutely dominating right now, and the guys remind listeners to enjoy it while they can—it’s something special that you don’t see every day. Ben Zobrist has been heating up lately, and the guys take a closer look at his recent run. A week ago Isaac complained that the bullpen wasn’t being used per the plan, and over the past week Maddon flipped the switch and began following the plan, so, you’re welcome. Also, some AAA players you may not be familiar with.

60 Seconds with a Former Cub: Joel drops another instant classic with Pete LaCock. Get your giggle machine ready…

Question of the Week: Ryan takes a question on Jason Heyward. Is there reason to panic yet?

At Bat of the Week: It isn’t Addison Russell, but Ryan Kalish with a well-deserved mention here. 

The guys close with some baseball memories in honor of Mother’s Day.

Great episode, as always. But Joel’s “60 seconds” nearly caused me to veer off the Kennedy I was laughing so hard. So good. Thanks.

Glad you enjoyed it! That’s just a snippet of how much Joel makes us laugh on a regular basis.

At this moment I feel like Javy deserves to start at third and push KB to LF. Szczur is well suited for the 4th OFer role just like Tommy LaStella fits nicely as a the additional INF.

I would love to see Soler go back to AAA. I think it would be for the better of the club and his overall development.
