About this episode

The episode discusses the Chicago Cubs' performance, focusing on Pete Crow-Armstrong's impact and the team's playoff prospects amidst injuries.

Season 2, Episode 21 of Club 1:20 asks a question Cubs fans are starting to wrestle with: Are the Cubs actually playing better baseball… or is Pete Crow-Armstrong carrying the whole thing? On today’s lineup card: ⭐ Public Enemy PCA – Is Pete Crow-Armstrong becoming MLB’s next great villain… or simply becoming too good for the rest of baseball to ignore? 🚑 Pitching Peril – Another Cubs pitcher goes down. At what point does “next man up” become “there are no more men”? 🎭 Open Auditions – What matters more to the Cubs playoff hopes: PCA continuing to play like an MVP, or someone else finally stepping up? 💣 Bullpen Blips – Do the Cubs actually have a bad bullpen… or do Cubs fans just have bad bullpen memories? 🎯 Topic of the Week – Good or Good Enough – The Cubs are 7-3 in their last 10. Are they playing better baseball… or surviving on PCA heroics and duct tape? 🍺 Grab an Old Style, grab a bleacher seat, and settle in for Season 2, Episode 21 of Club 1:20. 👉 Drop your take in the comments: If PCA cooled off tomorrow, would the Cubs still be a playoff team? #Cubs #ChicagoCubs #MLB #PeteCrowArmstrong #Club120 #CubsBaseball #MLBPlayoffs
