Baseball’s playoffs are going to be in your face Tuesday and Wednesday, and after wandering through the pandemic wilderness for many fraught months, Sam and Andy are here to let you know it’s OK to be excited about it, and (gasp!) about the Cubs’ chances. Will Kris Bryant’s heel turn, Adbert Alzolay’s new slider, and Yu just being Yu be enough to subdue the mostly anonymous Marlins? You’ll have to listen to find out. They also talk about what the hell the Cubs were doing with Brailyn Marquez on Sunday, talk about the vagaries of three game series to kick off the playoffs, and just what chance the Cubs really have.
