With Edward Cabrera, Ben Brown, and Daniel Palencia nearing returns from the injured list, what is the best-case scenario for the Chicago Cubs' pitching staff after the MLB Trade Deadline? The CHGO Cubs Podcast breaks down how the additions of Kevin Gausman, Reid Detmers, Clay Holmes, Braxton Garrett, and Ryan Zeferjahn, combined with a healthier roster, could transform the Cubs into a serious World Series contender. We discuss the ideal rotation, bullpen roles, and how Jed Hoyer's deadline moves could shape the Cubs' postseason run.
