The Phillies as the alternate-universe Cubs, and the uniqueness of Frank Schwindel's breakout

Onto Waveland: A show about the Chicago Cubs

Would you believe that the Phillies haven't had a winning record in a decade? Even with all the talent they've had in that window, they haven't been above .500 since winning 102 games in 2011. In an alternate universe, the Cubs could be this year where the Phillies are, hanging around the fringes of the playoff race with a talented, but seemingly underperforming, core. Would that be satisfying? Brett, Sahadev and Patrick discuss on this episode of Onto Waveland.

The guys also dig into the uniqueness of Frank Schwindel's breakout.
