    • Cubs roster move: Keegan Thompson to injured list, Luke Little recalled
    Photo by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The Cubs have a true lefthander back in the pen. The Chicago Cubs today placed right-handed pitcher Keegan Thompson on the 15-day injured list with a viral illness and recalled left-handed pitcher Luke Little from Triple-A Iowa. Little has made 10 appearances (one start, as an “opener”) for the Cubs this season, posting a 7.00 ERA (seven earned runs in ...2024

Well, I guess for the rest of the team, they ran into that wall on Monday.

    John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs offense was missing in action in a 2-0 loss in Atlanta. That was a disappointing loss. The Braves have a deep and talented team and Shōta Imanaga shut them out for five innings. Hayden Wesneski followed and had just one hiccup but that was enough for the Braves to put together two wins and pull out the win. The numbers suggested going into the g...2024

The Cubs acquired righthander Tyson Miller from the Mariners late Monday night for Jake Slaughter, and I thank Josh for posting this trade article while I was asleep. To make room on the 40-man roster, as well as the 26-man active roster, lefthander Richard Lovelady has been designated for assignment. Mille...2024

    • Cubs 5, Pirates 4: Words of Wisdom
    Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports Patrick Wisdom had three hits, including a home run, to help the Cubs take a game in extra innings. Well. 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

In probably the biggest upset of the young 2024 season to date, I made it through the first 31 games without writing a glass half full/glass half empty piece.

This weekend was one of the first times that I felt that the cumulative weight of all of the injuries started to really show.

    Brian Fluharty-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs tied the game late, but could not convert it into victory. If Dansby Swanson can hold on to that little floater into left field, the Cubs probably turn a double play in the bottom of the ninth, because Jarren Duran had strayed from third base. In that case the game probably goes to extra innings. But he didn’t. Don’t blame Dansby, that would have be...2024

    Photo by Mark Blinch/Getty Images The Cubs ended a 14-year losing streak north of the border. TORONTO — It required six relievers (seven, if you count Luke Farrell on what was a bullpen day) and some timely hitting, but Wednesday night the Cubs ended a losing streak in Canada that had lasted more than 14 years.
