Dreamcast #81: No Content

The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming ·

2024/02/01

Since the Cubs (and MLB by extension) aren't doing much in the way of transactions, we are left with very little tangible content and a whole lot of speculation. Rice and Berselius get together to talk a bit of football, the waiting for Cody Bellinger (and others), what's going on with team ownership groups, the changing sports TV landscape, and the Hall of Fame announcement that just happened. Maybe by the time we see you next, the Cubs will have finally done something else, or we will be at spring

Dreamcast #80: Holding Pattern

The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming ·

2024/01/08

Alright folks, not much has happened for the Cubs since last year, but since "last year" was right before Christmas and "this year" just barely started, maybe it's not so bad? Skip and Rice hang out to talk about the lack of action, and what can still be done to make this Cubs team competitive in 2024. Plus some musings on how to speed up the transaction process for our own entertainment. You can find our blogs now with our friends at Obstructed View. Please rate and review us on Apple

Dreamcast #79: Yellow Journalism

The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming ·

2023/12/11

As the Cubs lost out on Plan A (Shohei Ohtani) and Plan B (Juan Soto), we look at the shenanigans leading up to Ohtani's declaration of fealty to the Dodgers, the various journalistic failures surrounding free agency so far, and what the Cubs can still do between now and spring training to get back to the postseason even though they did lose out on the big boys.

Dreamcast #78: Shohei Hey!

The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming ·

2023/11/20

Right after the awards announcements but before Thanksgiving, there is a lull of transactional fun as the Cubs fill their coaching staff, protect some prospects from Rule 5, and re-sign our handsome hero, Patrick Wisdom. We dream about forever Cub Shohei Ohtani, some other moves on the horizon, and are thankful we are not the ex-Oakland A's and their terrible, no-good owner.

Dreamcast #77: Back on the Bandwagon Again

The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming ·

2023/11/07

Fun fact, we had this recorded the night before free agency, and then the Cubs went and hired Craig Counsell, so you get a two-for-the-price of one as we talk about the World Series that just happened, the Gold Gloves, and then how this new hire changes the trajectory of the potential 2024 World Series champion Cubs...

Dreamcast #74: Fumes

The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming ·

2023/09/27

Alas, the Cubs did not win during our latest recording session due to a most unfortunate error (and many other things) stemming from what we talk about in this episode, which includes how the Cubs depth is being tested to the extremes as the season wears them down, and the tenuous grip on that final postseason berth which is now the most likely way they make it to the tournament. We also talk about the season's most likely award winners and conjure up some hopefully positive juju for more baseball
