<p>Craig Counsell clearly read the newsletter and listened to the podcast and came to the conclusion that dropping Dansby Swanson in the order was a good idea. Oleg, Praz and Andy discuss reordering things, Shōta dodging a major injury (though with the Cubs you never know), how this hot start is different than last year's hot start and more fun with Petecrow Armstrong. Praz talks about the Cubs trying to disrobe him. They ponder the veracity of Dave Kaplan's report that the Cubs are willing to spend what it takes to keep Kyle Tucker. All that, and much, much more. </p>

<p>With the NFL Draft going on, Andy and Dave look back at when the Kansas City Royals just kept drafting Hall of Fame football players. Plus, fun with official scoring, when is a save a win, what happens when you try to send your Rule V "star" to the minors, why was it legal for a double-A player to hit the ball twice with one swing, gender reveals do not belong in the batter's box, who do the Yankees have to blame for dinky foul poles, backup catchers are the best hitters in the world right now, and what to expect from Drew Pomeranz (other than a need for Metamucil?)</p>

<p>The Cubs are trying to bolster their bullpen with Drew Pomeranz? Hey, nobody's gotten a hit off of him in four years! Bruce Levine says that Jed's out looking for a starter and a "lock down" reliever and that would be great if this was November of last year when he should have been trying to the same damned thing. We look back at the crazy Friday win over the D'bags and two equally nutty games in Cubs history. The Cubs are almost finally done with the Dodgers and almost done with the toughest part of their schedule. And, an explanation for the Cubs awful backup TV announcer as to why Ryan Pressly got the win and not the save on Friday. All that, and more. </p>
