Phillies, Red Sox, Cubs & Astros Are OUT — Robert Murray on What’s Next?

26m | Oct 2, 2026

Adam Weinrib and MLB insider Robert Murray break down what comes next for the Phillies, Red Sox, Cubs and Astros after their Wild Card eliminations and Robert has plenty of offseason intel.

Could Alex Cora be headed to Philadelphia, and is Alec Bohm likely on his way out? Robert explains why a Sonny Gray return to Boston looks increasingly unlikely, why Roman Anthony’s health may be the Red Sox’s biggest offseason question and how the Cubs can address a roster that completely disappeared against San Diego.

Plus, could Houston entertain a Jeremy Peña trade after an ugly end to its season, are the Padres even more dangerous than Robert expected, and should we start believing in the White Sox?
