About this episode

Oleg and Praz discuss the Cubs' performance, trade strategies, and player comparisons while watching live game events.

Oleg and Praz are on hand to talk about Andy's ultra-scientific similarity score comps of the Cubs and they see the results from a much better team. They also discuss the ludicrous idea that Petecrow is lagging in the All-Star voting because he's "unlikeable" when the real reason is far more obvious. They discuss what the Cubs trade deadline strategy should be while making fun of the Bleacher Nation take on it. They also wonder when Alex Bregman is going to do anything at Wrigley and why Nico and Bregman's struggles have made Dansby's seem even worse than they already are. And in real time they watch Edward Cabrera suffer two groin injuries and Petecrow get thrown out stealing on a walk, Ronny Cedeno-style. All that, and more.
