Rahimi & Grote Show · Russ Dorsey is stumped when it comes to whom Cubs should use in closer role · 16 Sep 2026 podcast

Uh, I feel like we've been we've been talking about this, like the three of us, for a little while here, cause it has been trending this way. voice-verified

You don't have time in your schedule now to say, hey, we have time, we give a guy a day. voice-verified

Like they really don't have that option. voice-verified

You can do one of two things. voice-verified

You can do what it seems like they're gonna do and ride it out with Munutaka Murakami, and you hope that he runs into a ball at the right time and works a walk here and there. voice-verified

But I just don't or you can say, Hey, you gotta come sit down for a couple of days and we'll put somebody else in there. voice-verified

I think they feel like because of the power voice-verified

that he brings to that lineup, there is still a threat there, but I don't know how much of a threat he's really giving you right now because the the bats are starting to look non-competitive. voice-verified

And when you're in that place, that's usually when you start to see teams give a guy a mental day. voice-verified

But yeah, the results are just not there right now. voice-verified

And you're at a point in the season where you really need every guy in that lineup voice-verified

to be giving you a competitive A B. voice-verified

I think the other thing voice-verified

that they might be thinking when it comes to giving him a day is one, yeah, there's only like a a week and a half left in the season. voice-verified

But two, voice-verified

Do you kill the confidence of a guy that's already struggling if you bench him at this point in time? voice-verified

Like what's what I think is you're trying to decide what's more important here is a guy who you believe in, who is struggling, who probably needs a day or two off. voice-verified

Does benching him and giving him that mental reset for a couple of days, does that do more harm than good to his confidence? voice-verified

Because he can see the strikeout numbers. voice-verified

Like he probably knows his numbers better than anybody right now. voice-verified
