Onto Waveland: A show about the Chicago Cubs
Sports:Baseball
When David Ross lifted Kris Bryant in the middle of Monday's series opener with the Cardinals, all of Cubs Twitter immediately went on #HugWatch. Bryant left the game with hamstring fatigue, but the fact remains that the trade deadline will dominate the environment around this team for the next week, especially when it comes to Bryant and Craig Kimbrel.
Brett, Sahadev and Patrick discuss that dynamic on today's episode of Onto Waveland. They also get into how the timing of this year's MLB amateur draft complicated matters for scouting staffs that are also tasked with priming their teams for the trade deadline, particularly for a team like the Cubs that gutted its scouting staff last year.
