Oh yeah, Randall pulled the radio call by Hall of Fame broadcaster Pat Hughes
Mr. Cube Goes to Court
So as you know, I had jury duty this week and that was a different experience than my previous ones with the judicial process. I don’t think I’ve ever actually been inside a courtroom before, but the first time I went to jury duty, I sat in a holding room for hours until the clerk told us to go home. …
The air was sticky, but the Pelicans bats were not.
I told Rice Cube and Berselius I’d occasionally write about the Myrtle Beach Pelicans, since I go watch them with some regularity. That was 6 weeks ago, so I’m living up to the occasional part. Ticketreturn.com field, where the Pelicans play, is about 40 minutes from my house, so it’s pretty convenient, and I go to about 10 games each …
Dreamcast 67: The Gigantic Rant
RC, AC, and berselius may have ranted the Cubs into a shocking comeback…or not, it could go either way. Topics include whether to buy, sell, or stand pat, trading the farm for a certain uberstar, and more. You can probably note the difference between when I take the time to edit the crap out of the podcast and when I …
Dreamcast 66: All-Star Edition
After the Draft, RC, Berselius, & BVS hang out to talk about the Cubs strategy, the All-Star festivities and what we liked versus what they need to change, and the usual stuff about whether this team is good enough to avoid a sell-off and make a pleasantly surprising postseason run. You can check out the podcast page or just click on the …
Rapid Cubs Draft Reaction
There are probably dozens of prospect perverts and sites better suited to this than I am, but the Draft is over and the Cubs got their 20 new guys, pending signability, but my guess is that the first 10 picks (within the slot pool) will certainly be signed, and they’ll get most of the others because they’re mostly college players …
All Purpose All-Star Break Rundown
Since the last time I looked at the odds (extreme Han Solo voice), the Cubs have slipped a bit in the standings but remain in third place, now six games back of the Brewers and seven behind the Reds. While it’s possible the Reds or the Brewers can win the division, I don’t think Cincinnati is as good as their …
Cubs 3, Yankees 0
OSS: Where’s this Jameson Taillon guy been all season? Three up: Three down: Next up: Drew Smyly takes on Gerrit Cole at 12:05 CT, in what might be a slightly tougher matchup for this Cubs offense.
Tales of Triumph and Regret
I started thinking about this even before the Cubs laid a goose egg against the Cleveland Baseball Club the other night. I don’t actually recall the last time a club with a losing record, including the Cubs, had multiple All-Stars, but even though I’m not sharing tweets in case Elon Musk forgot to pay his server bill again, we heard …
Dreamcast 65: Jet Lag
Rice and Berselius hang out to basically kill half an hour talking about the Cubs, Trey Mancini’s shitty defense, some stuff about wildfires and the CBA, and wish everyone a fun Fourth of July as we prepare for the All-Star break and the trade deadline. You can check out the podcast page or just click on the embedded players below. You can …
