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.

As the #mlbwintermeetings get set to take over #orlando next week, the #chicagocubs have thus far been relatively quiet this offseason. Off the board is #dylancease.  Expected is a frenzy among teams vying to make a big splash next week with former #cubs #kyletucker and #kyleschwarber expected to be two of the biggest bats to sign elsewhere.

In a 'win or go home' Game 5  live from #milwaukee, the #chicagocubs sent opener #drewpomeranz to the mound against opener #trevormegill of the #milwaukeebrewers.  In a tight game throughout, the #brewers rode 3 solo HRs into the 9th inning, as the #cubs managed just a solo shot from #seiyasuzuki.  The Cubs just didn't get enough offense and the Brewers got just what they needed and rode their bullpen to advance to the #NLCS.  #kap #guff and Gordon are here for the final breakdown and reaction from the Best of 5 series.
