I introduced myself as the new host of Bleav in Cubs and my goals for the podcast. I then break down the Cubs loss last night to the Mets from their early 6-1 lead to the bullpen collapse. I talk about which players' performances concerned me and which excited me with the playoffs on the horizon. I then analyzed Wild Card home field advantage scenarios for the Cubs while highlighting what else is going on in that NL Wild Card race.
