The Chicago Cubs’ Nico Hoerner has yet to make the Opening Day roster, obviously. But he has a knack for multimedia. He started a podcast, and he launched a fundraiser on the Cameo app on Twitter to help provide remote learning resources to Chicago Public Schools kids through Children First Fund.
The podcast called ‘the Compound’ has Hoerner, Dakota Mekkes, Ian Happ and Zack Short at the helm. The first episode consisted of the best and the worst of their days, their best lineups for a Game 7 World Series and more. It’s more than fitting since they are at the compound in Mesa, Arizona.
