Jake and Jordan break down the careers of each of these men and talk about their legacy and relationship with their respective cities and the game of baseball. Then, the guys run through some of the recent transactions across the baseball world, including friend of the show Rhys Hoskins’ two-year, $34 Million contract with the Brewers. Congrats on the contract dude.

Rumors were swirling around at the Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville, Tenn. and the Cubs Weekly Podcast helps sort through what was fact and fiction. Host Andy Martínez and Marquee Sports Network contributor Bruce Levine discuss where the Cubs stand in the race for superstar Shohei Ohtani. The pair then discuss where Christopher Morel stands in trade talks and who the Cubs are targeting in that department. 

Later in the podcast, the pair discuss their takeaways from Jed Hoyer, Carter Hawkins and Craig Counsell’s availabilities this week.

Jake and Jordan break down everything you need to know about the AL Central heading into the 2023 season. They analyze team changes, and ask the biggest questions surrounding every team, including whether the White Sox’s hiring of Pedro Grifol will have a Rob Thomson effect on the club, and "is Bobby Witt Jr the Barometer Bonds for the Royals?" Plus, Andre Knott from Bally Sports pops by to chat about the Guardians and tell us which player can hit more than 20 home runs for them this season.
