Episode Description from the Publisher

The Chicago Cubs have been SWEPT by the Milwaukee Brewers, and this series exposed a major difference between these two teams: pitching infrastructure.The Brewers continue to develop, identify, and build pitching at a level the Cubs simply haven't been able to match. From their rotation depth to their bullpen and the way they consistently find arms to get big outs, Milwaukee’s pitching infrastructure looks YEARS ahead of Chicago’s.And with the Cubs struggling to get reliable innings and late-game outs, the question now has to be asked: ARE THE CUBS IN TROUBLE OF MISSING THE PLAYOFFS?The NL Wild Card race is getting tighter, the margin for error is shrinking, and the Brewers just reminded everyone why they're the team to beat.Is this just a bad series for the Cubs — or is it a sign of a much bigger problem?312 SPORTS PRO SHOP: https://bit.ly/4e7bqyvThe Best Replacement Windows And Doors At The Best Price.
