Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Tina Nguyen: Cubs are being fueled by NLDS loss to Brewers

Davis and Tyone is a mystery to me because he's the guy who, at the same time, one year he's decided to not use a sweeper because it messes up the rest of his stuff.

Next year he'll bring it back, and then somehow it's key to his fastball command.

I've never seen anything like it.

Tina Nguyen: Cubs are being fueled by NLDS loss to Brewers

Oh, yeah.

I mean, I don't think there's any doubt that the White Sox actually made efforts to get better.

You're going to see a whole year of Colson Montgomery, Munotaka Murakami.

We're trying to figure out who he's going to be as an American Major League hitter coming from Japan, how he adjusts to that hitting.

And I did get a bit of a laugh, by the way, speaking of the Jamison Tyone game, because you know who countered as a starting pitcher for one inning for the Colorado Rockies in that game two days ago?

Tina Nguyen: Cubs are being fueled by NLDS loss to Brewers

I think he was a good pickup by the Brewers last year, and I think he's still serviceable for depth.

But unfortunately, Quintana and Colorado, that might mean you allow a lot of runs come the regular season of baseball just because of how that goes.

You know, also, the Cubs got Michael Conforto signing him to a deal where he might make the team.

And Conforto seems to have an open mind about it, by the way.

Jordan Bastian talked to him, and he says he feels like a prospect all over again.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Tina Nguyen: Cubs are being fueled by NLDS loss to Brewers

Well, and that's it.

You need more home runs from the entire Cubs lineup now that Kyle Tucker isn't in it.

That includes Alex Bregman.
