Weekend Sports Huddle with Tom Pollin & Dave Holcomb

WRSP presents the seventh weekly episode of Weekend Sports Huddle with co-hosts Tom Pollin and Dave Holcomb. The Cubs made a huge splash this past week, acquiring closer Aroldis Chapman from the New York Yankees. Tom will provide his analysis of what this move means for the Cubs both on and off the field. Remember, Chapman was involved in a domestic violence case over the offseason.

The Pirates remain in the thick of the Wild Card race, but all the rumors surrounding the team heading into the trade deadline has been about the possibility of dealing closer Mark Melancon. Dave shares his thoughts on a potential Melancon trade.

Staying in baseball, Ichiro is on the verge of becoming the 30th player in MLB history to record 3,000 hits. Our hosts will discuss the signifcance of Ichiro becoming the first Japanese player in the 3,000-hit club.

To conclude the show, we return to a piece of news we didn't get to last week. The NFL handed out a four-game suspension last week due to missing multiple drug tests. Bell will appeal. Does he have a chance of winning it?
