Luke: When is it too early to panic?

00:00:40

Kap: What was the biggest concern we had going into this season? The bullpen. And it has reared it's ugly head and it looks awful.

00:02:00

Kelly: I don't like that some guys have built-in excuses already.

00:03:25

Kap reads off the list of positive signs for the Cubs. IE: Bryant/Schwarber/Baez/etc.

00:06:08

Looking at the bullpen. Solutions outside of signing Craig Kimbrel. How long do they give this bullpen as it's currently constructed?

00:08:28

Breaking down C.J. Edwards struggles and if he would/should be sent down at some point if he continues to struggle.

00:11:00

Tyler Chatwood. What if he's just a 1-inning pitcher now with his massive contract?

00:12:37

Kyle Schwarber looks great early on. Hes says he's back to the "squatty" guy he was and not over-thinking things at the plate anymore. Does he need to be in the lineup every day?

00:18:10

Ronald Acuna Jr.'s new contract and what it could mean for any possible Kris Bryant/Javier Baez extensions. Kap thinks both Bryant & Baez will be extended before hitting free agency.
