    • Cubs 7, Dodgers 3: What’s so great about these Dodgers, anyway?
    Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images The Cubs beat the team from L.A. for the second straight afternoon. MESA, Arizona — So the Cubs beat the Dodgers twice in Spring Training games and outscored them 19-7. Everything’s all set then, right? Well, of course it isn’t, not with these being practice games not played under regular-season conditions and half of it being played with miscellaneous minor leagu...2025

    • Another way-too-early look at the Cubs’ Opening Day roster
    Major League Baseball Let’s try this again, after a few more acquisitions. One week today, the Cubs — or, more correctly, a bunch of guys wearing Cubs uniforms — will take the field at Camelback Ranch to face the Dodgers.

    Jeff Hoffman | Photo by Elsa/Getty Images The Cubs could use bullpen help. Who should they go after? The Cubs had some real bullpen issues in 2024, particularly in the first half of the sason. Things stabilized, to some extent, in the second half and it’s possible the Cubs might have identified a closer in Porter Hodge.
