About this episode

The episode discusses the Cubs' recent struggles and the Brewers' dominance in their matchup.

Once again, the Brewers showed they are a superior team, dominating a three-game sweep at Wrigley Field from start to finish. As the Cubs try to regroup, The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney explain how they flipped from the hottest team in baseball to a club that looks completely discombobulated. Are the Brewers really that good? Shouldn’t Alex Bregman be better than this? And what do you want to see from Craig Counsell right now? 🌶️ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
