Episode Notes
In this episode of Chicago Cubs Central, Mike makes the case that Ben Brown deserves serious consideration for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game!

After entering the season with questions surrounding his role, Brown has answered every challenge with elite performances on the mound.

🔥 Ben Brown's incredible 2026 numbers
🔥 How he compares to other National League All-Star candidates
🔥 Why his breakout season has been overlooked nationally
🔥 The adjustments that transformed his career
🔥 Whether he has become the Cubs' true ace
