Opening Day One Week Away, & Horton Rising | Bleacher Nation Cubs
Episode 54
Thursday, 19 March, 2026
Brett and Michael are back for the fifty-fourth episode of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast (Presented by Ankin Law)! With Opening Day just one week away—set for Wrigley Field against the Nationals—the excitement is building as the Cubs wrap up Spring Training. The guys break down a pitching staff that has looked sharp throughout camp, highlighted by strong swing-and-miss stuff and encouraging early results. Cade Horton’s emergence is a major talking point, including his nasty change-up and him getting the Opening Day nod. They also discuss how the Cubs’ defensive strength has played a key role this spring, allowing pitchers to attack the strike zone with confidence and trust the defense to handle balls in play. It’s a combination that could raise the overall ceiling of the staff if it carries into the regular season. Overall, Brett and Michael share their optimism about where the team stands heading into the year, with a rotation that feels both top-heavy and deep, and a roster that looks ready to compete right out of the gate.
