Chicago Cubs
Overall, this season, Seiya Suzuki is hitting quite well. He’s got a .269/.369/.455 slash line, equating to a 132 wRC+, which is just above his career average, with a better-than-normal walk rate...

This trade prediction would make a ton of sense for everyone involved.
Episode 63 of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast is officially live! This week, we talk about how everything sucks! There are some small silver linings and bright spots tucked in there, but you...
Given that no impact trades are coming to reinforce the rotation any time soon, the best we can hope for right now are relatively quick returns to action for Matthew Boyd and Justin Steele. The...
The Chicago Cubs hope a day off at home will allow them to reset mentally before they host the Houston Astros in the opener of a three-game series on
Even as the offense struggles right now – BADLY – I do think we have to remember where the biggest needs on this club are likely to be in the months ahead. That is with the pitching staff thanks...
In recent weeks, MLBTR has looked forward to next winter’s option classes. We’ll move now to the NL Central, where the Cubs have a number of low-cost options to weigh. Previous: AL East, AL...
We saw some good and some bad from the Cubs minor league squads on Wednesday. The Iowa Cubs finally picked up a win, but not without some drama as they snapped their eight-game losing streak. Owen...
It could’ve been worse. When a pitcher throws a wild one with diminished velocity, bringing out the manager and the athletic trainer, and then departs without so much as a discussion, you are...
I don’t like to make assumptions about what is going on between another person’s ears if I don’t have to, which means I try not to explain struggles on the baseball diamond by armchair...
The good news is that the Chicago Cubs are very unlikely to lose today. I can’t decide if it’s better (talking about me, not the Cubs) for the team to have an off-day today, or if I’d rather they...
To make a play on words from the title of a classic children's book, it's been a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week for Pete Crow-Armstrong and the Chicago Cubs.
The Cubs continued their very poor play against the Brewers on Wednesday night and lost their fourth consecutive game. It was an all-around sloppy and lifeless performance from the home team, who...
Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong called his errors over the past two games "laughable" after allowing a ball to scoot under his glove in the second inning of Wednesday's 5-0 loss to the...

Kyle Harrison struck out 11 in seven dominant innings and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the sloppy Chicago Cubs 5-0 on Wednesday night to sweep the first series this season between the NL Central rivals.
Kyle Harrison allowed two hits over seven shutout innings to help the visiting Milwaukee Brewers finish off the three-game sweep of the Chicago Cubs w
And that’s a sweep. At home. To the division rival. Extending the losing streak to five. The Chicago Cubs were once again dominated by the Milwaukee Brewers, and I once again feel sick. The last...
Cubs starter Edward Cabrera left his outing Wednesday against the Brewers in the top of the fourth inning with a blister on his right middle finger.
Edward Cabrera made it through three innings with four runs allowed (one earned) on four hits and two walks, striking out two as well. Then he came out for the 4th and threw one fastball at 92.5...
It’s all just a grand joke at this point. I can’t even bring myself to be especially thoughtful, because I’m just so sick of this. I’m just a fan, so it’s not like it impacts my LIFE in the same...
Toronto Blue Jays starter Jose Berrios was a long shot to be a name to watch at the deadline this year, given that he hasn’t pitched in the majors, but he’s definitely out of the equation now....
CUBS LINEUP — There’s no salvaging the moment, as the Cubs have already dropped their fourth straight series and two games in a row to the Brewers, but it would still be nice to win today before...
This player shouldn't be up for debate to be on the trade block.
Remember back in the day, when Cubs baseball was fun? I’m talking all the way back on May 6, which feels way more than two weeks ago at this point. That was when they’d just completed their third...
On his weekly hit on The Score, Nico Hoerner was asked about the Pete Crow-Armstrong dustup with the White Sox fan, ultimately landing in the same place that PCA did (and any reasonable person...
This week’s series, combined with the earlier discussion of certain Cubs players’ woes with runners in scoring position this year, had me stepping back and looking at the Cubs and Brewers more...
The Baseball Gods were not amused by Vanderbilt’s Connor Fennell on Tuesday. SEC Tournament opener against Kentucky, middle of a workday, and Fennell throws an 89-mile-per-hour fastball and...

It’s been a few years since the last time I had anything to say – in writing, at least – about the Cubs broadcast on Marquee Sports Network. And that’s because, for the most part, they’ve cleaned...
It was a tough day for the Cubs‘ minor league squads, who were swept across the board in their series openers on Tuesday. Unfortunately, not a whole bunch of positives from yesterday’s action, but...
The Chicago Cubs once again opened a game against the Milwaukee Brewers with a great shot to put some runs on the board in the first inning. Two on, nobody out, and the heart of the lineup coming...

The Cubs made it moderately interesting for about 10 minutes in the bottom of the eighth inning, but Michael Conforto couldn’t come through with another big, late home run like he did on Sunday...
Okay, hopefully this is pretty much the end of this story, because I’m beyond tired of it at this point. Maybe that’s just the Cubs-induced bad mood talking, or the fact that it just doesn’t...
