Description
Doug Glanville recently wrote an op-ed for the New York Times about baseball's place in the pandemic and how the fight for the regular season is bigger than the sport. He stopped by the Cubs Weekly Podcast to discuss his thoughts on the matter with host Cole Wright and Taylor McGregor. The trio also broke down the "Rossian culture" that has helped the Cubs jump out to a 7-2 start to the season. Then, Elise Menaker and Tony Andracki recap the Cubs' weekend sweep of the Pirates and their thoughts on the new extra-innings rule. Before this week's podcast wraps up, Cubs reliever Dan Winkler dropped by to relay his firsthand experience of the Cubs-Cardinals rivalry growing up in Central Illinois and how his family with split allegiances reacted to his signing in Chicago.
