    Cubs REKAP Podcast - (S4 - EP3) Cubs Aren’t Finished: Evaluating the Current Roster and What’s Ahead

    Kap and Gordon sit down to break down the current construction of the Cubs roster following last week’s big news: the signing of superstar Alex Bregman. They discuss how the Cubs’ spending approach has changed this season, fueled by the added revenue from five home playoff games—something Tom Ricketts has pointed to as allowing for increased investment. The Cubs are still searching for pitching help, and this roster may not be finished yet. Stay tuned as Kap and Gordon sit down with Cubs General Manager Jed Hoyer in studio next week.

    The #chicagocubs have done very little this offseason.  Outside of a few bullpen moves, there has been no BIG move for the #cubs in the rotation or the lineup.  After #tatsuyaimai signed with the #houstonastros, enough is enough.  #kap and Gordon Wittenmyer discuss the frustration that comes with that for a fanbase after a season where they returned to the postseason, but came a game short of the #nlcs.  What now?  Is #kyletucker a possibility?  #codybellinger?  Do you want either?  The frustration mounts on this edition of the podcast. #takethat Follow The REKAP® everywhere - https://linktr.ee/rekaps  REKAP® Merch - https://bit.ly/rekap-merch  ___________________________ UPCOMING LIVE EVENTS: Be sure to join us LIVE at 🦉Hooters 🗓️Jan 6, 2026: (8pm-9pm) 8225 W Higgins Rd, Chicago, IL 60631 -  for the Studio 41 Football REKAP® Live. ___________________________ 🚀LEVEL UP your REKAP® experience! ​​Join the REKAP Membership and unlock a ton of awesome perks including exclusive videos and more... https://bit.ly/rekap-vip JOIN THE REKAP® Channel: https://bit.ly/join-the-rekap  MEMBERS ONLY CONTENT:  https://bit.ly/rekap-members-only  🔥 Members-Only Benefits: - Live Chats: Get your questions answered in exclusive live discussions. 💬 - Early Access: Be the first to see our videos before they're public. ⏰ - Exclusive Content: Access members-only live streams and Shorts. 🤫 - Shout-outs: We'll give you a personal shout-out from the REKAP® team! 🙏 - Members Only Livestreams! 💻 Join the REKAP® fam! 👇  https://bit.ly/rekap-vip ___________________________ REKAP® SPONSORS 🚗 Chicagoland Chevy Dealers: https://bit.ly/chevy-drives-chicago  🍒 tastytrade: https://bit.ly/tasty-trade  🏘️ Studio41: Home Design Showroom: https://bit.ly/studio-41  😴 Sinus and Snoring MD: Breathe and Sleep Better: https://bit.ly/sinusndsnoring  ⚖️ Ankin Law: www.ankinlaw.com, https://bit.ly/ankin-law   🚀 SEOLEVELUP: https://bit.ly/seolevelupllc   (REKAP® Digital Marketing Team)   ☀️ Four Seasons: https://bit.ly/four-seasons-heating-cooling   🍕 Lou Malnati's: https://bit.ly/lou-malnatis-chicago    📺 Abt Appliances & Electronics: https://bit.ly/abt-electronics  Use Code: REKAP25 🌯Guzman Y Gomez: A Mexican-themed casual fast food restaurant chain! https://bit.ly/guzman-y-gomez  🔥Vertical Chimney: Take Chimney Care To A Higher Standard: https://bit.ly/vertical-chimney  🏦 Wintrust “Chicago’s Bank”: Cubs Checking: https://bit.ly/cubs-checking  Sox Checking: https://bit.ly/whitesox-checking   🦉Sponsored by Hooters | Locations: https://bit.ly/hooters-locations | Menu: https://bit.ly/hooters-menu  🥤Dr Pepper Products: https REKAP SPONSORS: -------------------------------------------- 🚗 Chicagoland Chevy Dealers: https://bit.ly/chevy-drives-chicago 🚀 SEOLEVELUP, LLC Website Design SEO Company: Rank #1 On Google: https://bit.ly/seolevelupllc (We are the REKAP Digital Marketing Team) ☀️ Four Seasons: https://bit.ly/four-seasons-heating-cooling 🍕 Lou Malnati's: The oldest family name in Chicago pizza https://bit.ly/lou-malnatis-chicago 📺 Abt Appliances & Electronics:https://bit.ly/abt-electronics WELCOME TO THE REKAP: 🔗 REKAP ONLINE: https://bit.ly/the-rekap-online ✅ Welcome To My Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0s9VTJRus0&t=7s ✅ Questions / Comments?: rekap@thekapman.com
