CubsPS+ #74: Pitch Lab - The Tech Driving Pitching Development with Matt Pirro Apr 01, 2024

Show notes

This week’s episode is all about pitching. Pre-recorded, it includes my thoughts on Justin Steele’s injury the day after Opening Day and then I transition that into an interview I had with Matt Pirro, former Wake Forest ace and Washington Nationals farmhand. Matt and I talk about the changes in pitching development and the implementation of technology during his career, which started at Wake right before they started working to become the most tech-advanced program in the country.

CubsPS+ #72: Podcasting & the Cubs with Matt Cozzi Mar 18, 2024

Show notes

This weekend Matt Cozzi joined me to talk podcasting and the Cubs. We talk a little shop about the differences between a daily and weekly podcast and then got into what we’re hoping to see from the Cubs this season, including the impact of Craig Counsell & Shōta Imanaga’s ability to miss bats. We get into where we see the most variance in outcome on this team and what that could mean for their win projections.

CubsPS+ #71: Prospect Talk, Draft Prep & Avoiding Quicksand with Greg Zumach Mar 13, 2024

Show notes

This spring we’ve seen a lot from Cubs prospects in spring training games, so Greg Zumach of Northside Bound and the Cubs on Deck podcast joined me for this episode. We talk about what we’ve seen from the Cubs prospects this spring and what that means going forward and then talk about several guys the Cubs might have a shot at with the #14 pick in the 2024 MLB draft. Among those we discuss, since I’m a homer, is Iowa’s Brody Brecht.
