The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming

With the regular season done and the Cubs locked into a showdown with the Padres, the Dreamcast returns to praise the warrior mentality and mutant healing factor of Alex Bregman, the obligatory fluffing of a probable PCA MVP season, how the Cubs might still have a chance against a hot Padres team, and our bold and possibly stupid predictions for the 2026 postseason.

With just six games to go, the Dreamcast looks at the tightening NL Wild Card race, discuss the freak Alex Bregman injury, marvel at the magical PCA season, and look ahead to the final week of the regular season and a hopeful postseason series at Wrigley if the Cubs can finish strong.

The Cubs find themselves on the outside looking in for the NL Central race, but in pretty good shape for postseason play. The Dreamcast returns to discuss the slim but mathematically alive chance of the Cubs taking down the Brewers, the continued excellence and competitive spirit of Pete Crow-Armstrong, some positive signs from the pitching despite the bullpen issues, and myriad rules and umpshow happenings.

The trade deadline has come and gone, and we do the postmortem on a pretty exciting Cubs trade deadline, ponder the ramifications of the Tarik Skubal trade to the Dodgers in advance of a potential labor war, consider the many options Craig Counsell has now with renewed pitching depth, remark on the increased likelihood of PCA MVP, and discuss the possibility of the Cubs competing for the division anew.

With the All-Star Break upon us, we wax poetic about the evolution of one Pete Crow-Armstrong, look back at the so-called "first half" of the Cubs season, and contemplate the MLB Draft and how MLB may have erred with some of its decisions surrounding the future of the game.

With the Cubs pitching staff limping to the All-Star Break due to underperformance and injury, the Dreamcast looks ahead to the last games before the All-Star break, our surprise and delight that the team has remained afloat and in contention despite having to scrape the barrel for arms to get outs, and throw in some assorted thoughts about the All-Star voting and upcoming game, Pride Month, and a bit about the CBA proposals thus far.

While hoping for the Cubs to walk off during our recording (spoiler: they did not), we hop on the Dreamcast again to discuss the preliminary offer exchanges in the ongoing CBA negotiations, the extremely inconsistent and slumping Cubs and how they might pull out of it, the wonder that is Ben Brown, and our hopes that the team will right the ship in June before they have to make a tough decision at the trade deadline.

The Cubs have weathered some ups and downs since last we podded, so now we are back to consider the team's struggles navigating injuries (particularly to the pitching staff), problems with RISP, fan interactions, and stick around for a spirited discussion about the ABS system and the future of baseball strategy.
