The Cubs Keep Sliding, What's the Deadline Plan? | Bleacher Nation Cubs

Brett and Michael are back for the sixty-sixth episode of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast (Presented by Ankin Law)! And, frankly, they're not happy. The Cubs are on the verge of being swept by the Rockies and have now gone 10 straight series without a series win, a stunning stretch for a team that once looked like one of the best clubs in baseball. The guys discuss how quickly things have unraveled, why the current version of the Cubs feels stuck in neutral, and what has to change before this season slips away completely. With the trade deadline approaching, the conversation naturally shifts toward the front office. If this skid continues, what kind of decisions will the Cubs have to make? Are they still buyers? Could they pivot into something more complicated? And if the organization decides bigger changes are necessary, which players could become trade candidates and what sort of return might be available? It's a frustrated but honest discussion about where the Cubs stand, how they got here, and what the next few weeks could mean for the direction of the season.
