Episode Summary: Welcome to episode two of The Signs, a new podcast where I dive into interesting numbers, trends, and plays related to the Chicago Cubs. I'm your host, Mike Waller, and today I'm breaking down the Competitive Balance Tax (CBT) and how it affects the Cubs' spending decisions. Key Points Discussed: Introduction to the Competitive Balance Tax (CBT): I explain what the CBT is, how it's calculated, and why it matters to the Cubs and other MLB teams. Contrary to popular belief, the CBT is not a salary cap, but it does influence how teams like the Cubs manage their payroll. CBT and the Cubs' Payroll: I discuss Jed Hoyer's recent comments about the Cubs potentially exceeding the CBT threshold this year. I break down what this means for the team's financial strategy and how it aligns with their performance on the field. The Cubs' Payroll History: A look back at the Cubs' payroll and CBT history since Tom Ricketts bought the team. I cover how the Cubs have approached spending in recent years, including the challenges they've faced with retained salaries and guaranteed contracts. Impact of Retained Salaries: I delve into the specifics of retained salaries and how they've impacted the Cubs' ability to stay under the CBT threshold. I highlight the inefficiencies in spending, such as the costs associated with players like Trey Mancini, Jan Gomes, and Tucker Barnhart. Future Spending and the Cubs' Strategy: Looking ahead to 2025, I discuss the Cubs' future payroll commitments and the potential strategies they might employ to stay competitive while managing their CBT obligations. I also touch on the possibility of big-name signings like Juan Soto and how that could impact the team's financial strategy. My Take on the Cubs' Spending: I share my personal thoughts on the Cubs' spending habits, the importance of efficient budgeting, and the need for the team to make smart financial decisions that align with their goals of returning to playoff contention. Conclusion: In this episode, I explored the intricacies of the CBT and how it shapes the Cubs' financial decisions. Whether the Cubs go over the threshold this year or not, what matters most is how they spend in the years to come to build a winning team for the fans. Thanks for tuning in, and as always, Go Cubs!

On this brand new edition of Cubs On Tap, Tyler and Ron are back talking about two out of three for the Cubs. Before any positives, the guys dive into Friday's loss and the ultimate implications a few errors made in that game and why that is not acceptable. Then, the guys focused on the good. The bats doing enough to come to life, the starting pitching being stellar, and the bullpen coming through helped the Cubs secure a pair of wins. The good comes with some concerns, but nothing the boys are losing sleep over at this point. In addition, the boys dove into topics such as Marcus Stroman's injury and rumors, a possible answer for the long term at third base, and the Tucker Barnhart designation for assignment. Finally, the boys wrap up the show with the Detroit Tigers preview. Cubs On Tap is presented by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠OnTapSportsNet.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, your go-to source for Cubs news⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, analysis, and updates.

She also seemed to give a slight wave to Svitolina, who won in a third-set tiebreaker. But boos rained down from the crowd at No. 1 Court as Azarenka gathered her equipment. Azarenka said she’s not sure the crowd understood what was happening. She says she was trying to be respectful of Svitolina.

The Cubs are oozing back to the bottom, and some people are shocked by this. Let's look back at how the free agent signings have worked out, what we can expect to get out of Matt Mervis and Christopher Morel, and why having three catchers is a complete waste of time. We'll discuss why there's no reason to call the tiny little infielder back up from Iowa, why Mike Tauchman should be rooting for Cody Bellinger to return ASAP, and why the Cubs should create a fake ainjury for Tucker Barnhart like they did Edwin Rios. Also, why won't the Cubs play Morel in the field, or make a sensible and obvious change to their batting order. And, a case for why they shouldn't be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline, but they should be active. Then, a quick look at what's really going on with the Bears' stadium stuff, and the return of HBO's secretly greatest show. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/desipio/message

Johnny Cueto listed th Cincinnati Reds as one of the final three teams he may sign with, per Ken Rosenthal. Jeff and Steve look at why he would be an awesome fit but why it would be surprising if he does choose the Reds. The bullpen looks like a big question mark but does have upside. Alexis Diaz is the obvious choice for the one we have the most confident in coming out of the Reds bullpen, but who else follows him? Is Luis Cessa or Buck Farmer the reliever we have the second-most confidence in? Where do the injured relief pitchers fall? Also, how worried should we be about Tucker Barnhart signing with the Chicago Cubs?Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…
