About this listen

Steven Ryan recaps a wild weekend for the Chicago Cubs on Cubs Daily! The Cubs dominated the Cardinals with an 11-0 win, highlighted by Seiya Suzuki’s homer and Matt Boyd’s All-Star-level pitching—Boyd has now allowed two runs or fewer in 16 of 18 starts since returning from Tommy John surgery. Friday’s game saw the Cubs set a new franchise record with eight home runs, including three from Michael Busch and bombs from PCA and Dansby Swanson, as the offense finally clicks after a streaky June. Get the latest injury updates: Jameson Taillon heads to the IL with a calf strain, Jordan Wicks is recalled, and young arms like Ben Brown and Jackson Wiggins could see more action. Steven breaks down the Cubs’ trade deadline mentality—why the team is likely to wait for the market to develop, the importance of top prospect Owen Caissie as a Kyle Tucker insurance policy, and which teams might become sellers. Tune in for daily Cubs news, fan reactions, and expert analysis as the playoff race heats up!
