Onto Waveland: A show about the Chicago Cubs
Sports:Baseball
When the histories of the post-deadline 2021 Cubs are written, they will not focus on the core-dismantling trades, or wallow in what-could-have-been longints, or traffic in Frank Schwindel jokes (don't hold us to that last one). They will, instead, highlight that August 2021 is when the Cubs became Willson Contreras' team. And if that's the case, then it's reasonable to expect him to get an extension sooner rather than later.
Brett and Patrick discuss Contreras' newfound outsize role on this episode of Onto Waveland, and the idea of Miguel Amaya being his backup in 2022. They also get into the White Sox series from last weekend and the potential monetary effects the new CBA could have on the Cubs' spending.
