  Episode #9

  Pete Crow-Armstrong makes MLB history, Cubs, White Sox, Padres CLINCH, Vladdy's $500M | Ross & Rizzo

  Sep 25, 202658 minS2

  David Ross and Anthony Rizzo are BACK with Episode 9 of Ross & Rizzo Unfiltered, where the guys talk about the BIGGEST storylines from around MLB. They react to Pete Crow-Armstrong making MLB History by becoming only the seventh player to join the 40/40 club as he reached 40 stolen bases in the Chicago Cubs’ final home game of 2026. The Cubbies also clinched a playoff berth in their final home game, and cemented themselves as one of the NL Wild Card teams this year. The Chicago White Sox and San Diego Padres also clinched their playoff berths, as there are only two spots remaining, which is the AL West title, and the final wild card spot where the Philadelphia Phillies look to clinch their berth. The guys react to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s comments about his $500 million contract and how he said he was paid for what he has already done, not what he will do in the future, as well as what the Miami Marlins are doing with putting starting pitchers in the bullpen during their off days. Finally, the guys answer fan mailbag questions about the MADDEST they’ve ever been on a baseball field, who the ultimate GLUE GUY is on the Cubs, as well as whether they thought that the Cubs were going to be a 90-win team before the season started.
