The spotlight shines on Michael Busch after a monster week that earned him national attention and co-NL Player of the Week honors. The guys also keep tabs on the red-hot Brewers, who are closing the gap in the Central—but may face a tougher road ahead than the Cubs.
Brett and Michael are back for the twentieth episode of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast (Presented by Ankin Law)! The Cubs wrapped up their week with a dominant 8-1 win over the Twins and an unforgettable Fourth of July performance, crushing eight home runs in an 11-3 win over the Cardinals—a new franchise record.
They spotlight Michael Busch’s red-hot stretch, including his three-homer game and co-NL Player of the Week honors, and discuss how he’s finally getting national attention alongside bigger Cubs names like PCA and Kyle Tucker.
Also on deck: the NL Central race is tightening up. The Brewers have surged with a sweep of the Dodgers and a month of winning baseball, but the Cubs still hold a schedule advantage in the second half.
