Guardians' sweep of Cubs, luxury tax questions cloud 2025 outlook for North Sider

  • Summary

  • The Chicago Cubs are fresh off a sweep at the hands of the Cleveland Guardians, leaving Leila Rahimi and James Neveau to ask where things stand with a quarter of the season remaining. The duo chat about missed opportunities in Cleveland, how moral victories at this stage of the year have lost meaning, and whether there is any hope at all of the Cubs getting together a late-season surge. Leila and James then break down comments made by Jed Hoyer about the Cubs potentially exceeding the luxury tax this year, and whether it will have an impact on Jed Hoyer and company opening the pocketbook for the 2025 season. Finally, they talk about a proposed MLB rule to mandate minimum innings pitched for starters, and send well-wishes to Ryne Sandberg as the Cubs legend announces he's cancer free.
