Weekly Recap by Corey and Brendan: Cubs Miss Sweep Against Blue Jays as Jed Hoyer Confirms They’re Over Luxury Tax

In this episode, we start by discussing the Cubs’ luxury tax situation and whether they might make roster moves to get back under the threshold. We also take a look at their upcoming easier schedule and what it could mean for the team’s momentum. From there, we dive into the bullpen’s latest changes with Lopez, Roberts, and Hodge, and consider what Wicks’ potential return could mean for the starting rotation. We break down PCA’s offensive performance and discuss Paredes’ rough start with the Cubs, including his recent shoulder issue.
