Mike Mulligan and David Haugh were joined by Score baseball insider Bruce Levine to discuss the Cubs' walk-off 3-2 win over the Reds in 10 innings Tuesday at Wrigley Field.
Three weeks into a long season, three particular developments have caught our attention (besides the recent rash of pitching injuries). The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney spotlight these ideas and try to project what might be sustainable and what could be a long-term concern. Is there reason to think Shota Imanaga could again be a legitimate Cy Young Award contender? Is Nico Hoerner simply off to a hot start or turning into a potential MVP candidate? And how do you evaluate the offensive struggles of Pete Crow-Armstrong and Michael Busch at this particular moment?One thing to pack, five ways to power!
