Cubs REKAP Podcast ⚾️ (S2 – EP28) – Do the Chicago Cubs have a realistic shot at Roki Sasaki?

#kap and #gordonwittenmyer always are spirited when they get together and this episode is no different. Gordon believes the big market #chicagocubs should be in on just about everybody, while Kap knows there are some restrictions. The #cubs have had success in bringing Japanese players in recent years and currently have #seiyasuzuki & #shotaimanaga. So , are they players for the next big name from #japan? #rokisasaki will make his way to #mlb in 2025 and the pair discuss whether he’ll be part of the 2025 plans.

That and more as the #wintermeetings draw closer in a few weeks.

  1. Never mind Anthony there David. I know you’re the best baseball analyst Chicago has. You don’t get where you’re at without knowing baseball, or any other sport for that matter.

  2. Does this guy really want to hand an opening day spot to Matt Shaw for playing well in the group games of a Premier12 tournament? Most of the guys there can't get with an MLB affiliated minor league team. It is better that he is playing well than not, but come on.🤣😂🤣

  3. Talking about handing out a job… We are always doing that. Lets see if Morel can learn third base at the Major league level instead of making him play in the minors at third…at least Shaw is a good fielder.

  4. KAP, THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THE CUBS BETTER COME OUT OF POCKET THIS OFF SEASON. DON'T TALK ABOUT IT. BE ABOUT IT. TIME TO BE SERIOUS CONTENDERS FOR THE WORLD SERIES.

  5. I wonder how much some of these guys make from, the endorsements. The Cubs players should do really well on that because not only is Chicago a huge market, but thanks to WGN having been shown nationally on cable since the 80's the Cubs have a nationwide fanbase. Granted, this will probably fizzle out in another 10 years since they shoved WGN aside to launch Marquee.

  6. Based on what Gordon said, Shaw should have been up in September then. You cannot use 40 man roster excuses as long as Mastro and Wisdom were still there.

  7. Kap
    Always appreciate your passion and often makes good points
    Lemme just tell you and Gordon
    Bullpen should be number one
    Offense and Starters and defense competitive enough
    How many blown saves did they have?
    Win even half of those and 90 wins or more

  8. Cubs has 5 gold glove caliber players, they are at least same level as Brewers. I predict they will be better defensively than Brewers next season.

  9. In what world can Matt Shaw start in the minors with Hoerner missing the start of the season? Who realistically will compete with him for this spot in spring training? Mastro? Please man.
