After a circuitous road trip to start the season, the Cubs return to Wrigley Field with some momentum and the type of player they've been lacking in recent seasons. The home opener will be a chance for Tucker to take in the Friendly Confines and learn more about what it's like to play in Chicago. The Athletic's Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney get into the impact of Tucker's hot start, what they're seeing in the rotation and why you don't have to panic about the bullpen (yet). Two easy ways to support the show: Leave us a nice rating/review here and SUBSCRIBE to NST on Youtube!
