    • Braves 2, Cubs 0: Wasting another good Shōta Imanaga start
    Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images The Cubs starter threw well again, but the Cubs could not generate any offense. Shōta Imanaga continued his run of great starts for the Cubs Monday in Atlanta. Unfortunately, he walked a few more than usual and ran up a high pitch count and could throw only five innings. Hayden Wesneski, who’s also thrown well, entered in the sixth and the Braves scored a...2024

Adbert Alzolay has had a rough time of it so far this year, with several blown saves and a home run allowed in six different outings — one more than he had all of last year. Now, perhaps we know why: Adbert Alzolay has been placed on the 15-day IL with a right forearm strain. José Cuas has been recalled from Triple A. Alzolay is the 14th Cub t...2024

This one wasn’t quite as crazy as Saturday’s, but then, most games aren’t. The Cubs got good pitching and bad pitching, timely hitting and times you wanted to rip your hair out because they didn’t, and in the end held on for a 5-4, 10-inning win over t...2024

The five men currently in the Cubs starting rotation — Shōta Imanaga, Jameson Taillon, Javier Assad, Justin Steele and Hayden Wesneski — have combined for 23 starts so far this year. That’s 60.5 percent of the 38 games the Cubs have played in 2024 to date. In those 23 starts, those five have combined for 129⅓ i...2024
