Welcome to the very first episode of The Pulse on the Club 1:20 Network.
This isn't a game recap. It's a weekly check-in on the heartbeat of Cubs baseball.
This week, we discuss why the Cubs have done more than just win games—they've changed expectations. We dive into what's trending in the right direction, what's still causing concern, and why the upcoming trade deadline could define the rest of the season.
In this episode: ❤️ Check the Pulse – Have the Cubs changed the conversation? 📈 Pulse Up – Craig Counsell's impact and a confident approach at the plate. 📉 Pulse Down – Injuries continue to test this roster. 👀 What I'm Watching – Why the Cubs should be buyers at the trade deadline. ⚾ Final Diagnosis – The Cubs are no longer trying to prove they're contenders... they're trying to prove they're complete.
If you enjoy Cubs conversations that go beyond the final score, subscribe and join us every week for a new edition of The Pulse.
