Patrick Mooney Breaks Down Cubs Playoff Pitching Questions & Alex Bregman’s Impact

Northside Territory host and The Athletic’s Patrick Mooney joins Scott Braun, A.J. Pierzynski and Erik Kratz to examine how the Cubs are preparing their pitching staff for October with Justin Steele, Ben Brown and Edward Cabrera all working their way back. Mooney explains where Steele could fit after his long road back from injury, why Kevin Gausman could emerge as Chicago’s Game 1 starter and how Craig Counsell’s deep collection of arms gives him plenty of options for a postseason run. The guys also discuss Shota Imanaga’s recent struggles and whether Counsell’s quick hook is a preview of how aggressively he’ll manage his rotation in October. Plus, Mooney evaluates Alex Bregman’s first season in Chicago and explains why his defense, leadership and recent offensive surge have made him a valuable addition to the Cubs.
