Len & Lin: The Hot Stove Cool Music Benefit Concert Headliner Announced! [Listen] May 15, 2017

Show notes

The Cubs are banged up, and their record reflects that. Luckily, the teams in the NL Central have been beating up on each other, so at this early juncture in the season, it's still anybody's division. More on that as the week progresses. Most importantly this week, there are some VIP packages available to this year's Hot Stove Cool Music concert benefiting The Foundation To Be Named Later... TWIN PEAKS! You may remember them from such XRT events as last year's Holiday Concert For The Kids at Thalia Hall, the 2016 Opening Day Live Broadcast, and this season's Len & Lin theme song! t

Len & Lin: Cubs-Cardinals Weekend Will Tell What's in Cards for Cubs [Listen] May 12, 2017

Show notes

The Cardinals have gotten as hot as the Cubs have gone cold. As you might imagine, this has caused some consternation among Cubs fans. Eddie Butler makes his Cubs debut Friday night, which usually doesn't bode well for opposing hitters. His appearance comes courtesy of Brian Anderson's placement on the disabled list. He can pitch his butt off, but if the defense doesn't tighten up, it won't matter. Addison Russell and Jason Heyward also join Anderson on the DL, so that helps to explain the sloppy defense of late.

Len & Lin: A List of Worries As Yanks Sweep Cubs [Listen] May 08, 2017

Show notes

Lin's teetering on the edge, even moreso than usual. It's been a somewhat trying start to the season, but yesterday's 18-inning affair yielded a whole bunch of new concerns for our twitchy morning man. Kyle Schwarber banged his knee into the brick wall as he went into the crowd to catch a foul ball. Javier Baez shanked a pitch off his leg and was seen hobbling around the field the rest of the game. Yankee closer Aroldis Chapman beaned Anthony Rizzo right in the wrist with a 99 mph fastball to bring in the tying run in the ninth inning. Addison Russell has apparently lost something on his throws from shortstop. And now they've run through the entire bullpen en route to a come from behind loss as they travel to the mile high city of Denver, where balls simply fly off bats. The potential for outright disaster is at hand, but Len is confident that even though things could look bleak, Arrieta's on the mound and anything can happen.
