Who has something to prove down the stretch?

Despite their long-shot odds to make the postseason, the Cubs still have a lot to play for in September. Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney of The Athletic run through some of the players they’re following more closely as well as a few names they’re already hearing about as possible targets in free agency. The trajectory of this season only reinforces the idea that the Cubs have to be more aggressive this winter and build a team with more certainty and fewer unknowns. Support NST!

The unexplainable offensive drought at Wrigley Field

Why do the Cubs look like a different team on the road? The offense came alive again at Dodger Stadium, where agent Scott Boras pointed out how unkind the Friendly Confines have been to hitters this season. It’s a topic of conversation for players, coaches and the front office, so it had to be addressed on North Side Territory. Sahadev Sharma discusses Patrick Mooney’s Boras interview with The Athletic, what Cody Bellinger is thinking, and whether this trend could impact free agents and roster construction in Wrigleyville.Support NST!

How Anthony Rizzo became Mr. Cub 2.0

The story will quickly shift after Shota Imanaga’s brilliant performance in a combined no-hitter. The Yankees are coming to town, which means Rizzo’s first game back at Wrigley Field since getting traded at the 2021 deadline. The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney both covered the entire breadth of Rizzo’s career in Chicago, which featured a full-scale rebuild, the end of a 108-year championship drought, and some entertaining back-and-forth with a character who enjoyed that part of the gig. A Friday 1:20 p.m. game at the Friendly Confines should be a great showcase for one of the most important figures in franchise history. Support NST!

Shota Imanaga leads the Cubs to their 18th no-hitter in franchise history

What a night at Wrigley Field, where the crowd booed Craig Counsell’s decision to pull his ace pitcher after seven no-hit innings. Imanaga, his catcher and the next reliever up didn’t even know they were on the verge of making history. And this actually started out as a bad day for the Cubs. For context, Sahadev Sharma checks in with Patrick Mooney from the postgame press box to discuss the scene, Imanaga’s seamless transition from Japan and what catching a combined no-hitter means to Miguel Amaya. You never know what might happen when you show up at the Friendly Confines.Support NST! Please leave this podcast page a rating and review. FREE BREAKFAST FOR LIFE!
