Why are some of the best young pitchers limited to short stints in the minors instead of contributing what they can to the big league team? David Brown and Andy discuss that hot topic, plus can you fix your bullpen in May, why is that Paul Skenes mustache a thing, when are they finally going to get around to updating the requirements to get a win, create the team error and figure out how to make a safety base that isn’t too weird looking for a big league diamond? Andy demands the Cubs bring up Cade Horton. They also discuss catchers creeping too close to hitters, which of the automated strike zone ideas is most likely to work and when can they start using it. They also discuss Boog Sciambi’s appearance on Pablo Torres’ podcast and why the things he claims the Cubs value in a player do not mesh with the current roster. All that, and more.
