The Cubs' playoff hopes have dwindled and we turn our attention to other pressing matters surrounding this team over the final 10 games.

Andy Martínez and Tony Andracki provide their initial thoughts on why the Cubs came up short this year and explain why Isaac Paredes, Pete Crow-Armstrong and Cody Bellinger are the key players to watch down the stretch.

Plus, what does the future hold for Kyle Hendricks? Why was it so important for Justin Steele to come back from the IL and pitch with such little time remaining on the schedule?

All that and more on the latest Cubs Weekly Podcast.
