Season 9, Episode 1 – The NL Central Is Ours, Bi**hes!

Team of Rivals Podcast

The morning after the Cubs make a major offseason move, Ron and Pete jump on, even though Elliott is nowhere to be found. Yes, they're going to go deep on the Cubs' signing of Carson Kelly on Friday night.
In this week's episode, the founders kick off Season Nine of the podcast with a lively discussion on the Cubs' surprising acquisition of Kyle Tucker. This game-changing move could redefine the Cubs' offseason, but is there more work to be done? As they break down the trade details, Ron and Pete examine Tucker's potential impact at Wrigley Field and debate whether the Cubs are truly committed to building a competitive team around him.
The conversation then takes a nostalgic turn as they reminisce about the Cardinals' past moves, reflecting on the Paul Goldschmidt-Nolan Arenado era and the missed opportunities within the organization. With Arenado's future now secure, the guys speculate on potential trade destinations and what that could mean for the Cardinals' upcoming season.
The episode wraps up with a discussion of the Bears' ongoing struggles and the possibility of a front office shakeup. As they look ahead, Ron and Pete emphasize the need for experienced leadership and a strategic overhaul to get the team back on track.
