Cubs Fan Talks Rizzo, Bryant and Baez Deadline Trades

This is a segment from the Slumpbuster Podcast. Taylor Mathis of BetKarma and host of the Brunch & Ball Podcast joins to talk her Chicago Cubs. The Cubs were one of the MLB's most active deadline sellers, moving key pieces from their World Series run in 2016. The first big domino to fall was Anthony Rizzo to the Yankees. Following that, the Cubs moved on from Kris Bryant sending him to the Giants and Javier Baez to the Mets. To add salt to the wound of Cubs fans everywhere, all three of these players homered in their debut for their new franchise. On the bright side in Chicago, moving all these pieces has resulted in a large prospect return for the Cubbies. Taylor and Ju-Ju talk the Cubs past, present and future in the wake of the 2021 MLB Trade Deadline.
