Cubs On Tap: S5 E73 – No Smyly-in' in Detroit - a podcast by Cubs On Tap

from 2023-08-23T04:24:08

:: ::

On this brand new edition of Cubs On Tap, Nick and Ron recap the Cubs' 8-6 loss to the Tigers on Tuesday. Following a nice win on Monday night, the Cubs offense showed up, but Drew Smyly struggled mightily in his first start since August 7. The guys began the breakdown with Drew Smyly's rough night. From keeping Smyly in the bullpen, to possible options to bridge the fifth starter for the time being, Nick and Ron kick the tires on all possibilities going forward.


In addition, the guys praise the bats for pushing through and showing off some power in Detroit. The duo then discusses some final thoughts from the comments and some final thoughts of their own before turning their attention to Wednesday. The Cubs trot out Jameson Taillon against Detroit's Tarik Skubal on Wednesday and the boys discuss what it will take for the Cubs to come away with another series win.
