Justin Steele is back with the Cubs at Wrigley as he builds back up for a possible return by the end of the season. The initial plan was for him to be ready by late May or early June, but a...
There’s not a lot of meat to this post, because it’s just a thing that I noticed and wanted to point out. With yet another good game at the plate, Alex Bregman has his season slash line up to...
We are raising funds for Make-A-Wish, and you’ve now pushed us over our $10,000 goal! That means the full 40-hour ordeal is on. No sleep for Brett from early Sunday morning until late Monday night...
A little stroll down memory lane for the 10th Anniversary Season … I will never forget where I was a decade ago, in the middle of the Blogathon at the time, and watching the Cubs get waxed by the...
The Cubs are adding left-hander Antoine Kelly to the roster for a weekend series against the Yankees, the team announced. He’ll take the spot of Gavin Hollowell, who heads to the injured list with...
I was a few weeks early on the idea of lefty Antoine Kelly earning a promotion, but the time has now come. After placing Gavin Hollowell on the IL with right shoulder inflammation, the Cubs have...
CUBS LINEUP — The Cubs came oh-so-close to sweeping their four-game set in St. Louis this week. But taking three of four was good enough to push them back to a season-high 15-games over .500. Now,...
Although we haven’t talked about him a ton this trade season, Tigers starter Casey Mize is one of the better rental starting pitchers available at the moment. And even if we may prefer his...
Can you believe we’re already at the end of July? Not only that, but the trade deadline isn’t today. I get that they want it on a Monday or whatever, but it feels weird to have it on August 3. The...
The fun news is that hard-throwing lefty Antoine Kelly is finally coming up for a shot with the Chicago Cubs. The less fun news is that it’s because yet another Cubs reliever is injured. Gavin...
For reasons that have been discussed around here ad nauseam, the Chicago Cubs are going to be considering pretty much any starting pitcher made available in trade this weekend. And, because they...
Another day, another set of plaudits for MVP hopeful Pete Crow-Armstrong. Let’s start with his play yesterday that very well may have saved the game for the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong makes a...
Cubs vs Yankees — The last series before the trade deadline. Cubs vs Yankees. And it starts with a Friday 1:20 game at Wrigley Field. It won’t be easy or stress-free, but boy is this going to be a...
It’s funny what happens when you win five of seven games against the two teams directly below you in the divisional standings. Though the Cubs have merely kept pace with the Brewers over the last...

The Cubs (62-47) posted a 5-2 record on a road trip to Pittsburgh and St. Louis thanks to some excellent pitching and a couple of explosive offensive performances. They have now reached their...

Alex Bregman hasn't performed up to expectations in his first season with the Chicago Cubs, but the veteran third baseman is showing positive signs he
Alex Bregman and Ian Happ each ripped an RBI double in the 10th inning to fuel the visiting Chicago Cubs to a 4-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals
We are raising funds for Make-A-Wish, and you’ve already pushed us to within an eyelash of our goal! A reminder that I’m offering to blog for 40 straight hours – NO SLEEP – at the 2026 MLB Trade...
The Cubs and Cardinals played a very tight contest at Busch Stadium Thursday afternoon that required extra innings for the second consecutive day. The road team grabbed the lead in the top of the...
Alex Bregman and Ian Happ each ripped an RBI double in the 10th inning to fuel the visiting Chicago Cubs to a 4-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals
I’ll take a four-game series win any day of the week. Well, any four days, that is. Although this one featured a little bit of scoring in regulation, it was taking on a very similar flavor to last...
Though the Cubs are approaching the deadline looking to add to the roster, they’ve also discussed catcher Carson Kelly with some of the many clubs who are seeking catching upgrades this summer,...
The Chicago Cubs’ extreme need in the bullpen was highlighted last night in the 10th inning, as we discussed earlier in the Bullets: Obviously the big stinger is that bottom of the 10th, with the...
CUBS LINEUP — Although they’ve already guaranteed themselves at least a split, the Cubs came very close to winning this series last night in St. Louis. Now, they’ll have to win today, behind...
The Cubs should be up 3-0 in this series, but a patchwork bullpen and failure to score any runs prior to Pete Crow-Armstrong’s 10th-inning homer did them in. Even though Trent Thornton is tied...
This creative trade deadline plan for the Cubs could see a veteran catcher dealt.
Like I’ve said before, it’s not good news that the Cubs so frequently have a large volume of injury update info to share, but it’s (1) good that we’re getting the updates, and (2) the news is...
Five things are absolutely true, and need to be stated at the outset of this surprising set of reports about the Cubs’ reported willingness to deal catcher Carson Kelly before Monday’s trade...
The deadline is inching closer and very few deals have materialized yet
Let me just go ahead and say right off the top that no one finds it funnier than me that I’m writing about the Cubs possibly pursuing Tarik Skubal just two days after writing that they’re not...
Designated hitter Ivan Herrera is hoping a big night at the plate is all that was needed to ignite the slumping St. Louis Cardinals.,St. Louis had los
Three days until the Blogathon begins, and four and a half days until the deadline … Just the worst kind of loss, man. Frustration for nine innings, a hero moment breakthrough … and then blown....
Iván Herrera smacked a walk-off, two-run double with one out, completing a three-run bottom of the 10th to give the St. Louis Cardinals a 3-2 comeback victory and prevent the Chicago Cubs from...
The Cubs and Cardinals played a full nine innings that were largely uneventful on Wednesday night, with no runs crossing the plate. That changed dramatically in the 10th inning, when the road team...
Here are five teams that could try to acquire the flamethrowing Mason Miller.
Ivan Herrera capped a three-run rally with a walk-off two-run double in the 10th inning and the St. Louis Cardinals snapped a three-game losing streak
Well, this narrative would’ve been a little easier to spin if the Cubs had held on in extra innings tonight, but frankly … it’s believable nonetheless. This team *is* good enough (with an obvious...
The Cubs have made no secret of their desire to add starting pitching and are at least checking in on the top of the market. Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports that the Cubs have considered...
