• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 161Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images A magical sendoff for a Cubs legend in a 3-0 win. What a day. We all have so many memories of Kyle Hendricks. Obviously, he started some of the most significant games in modern Cubs history, a statement that can be made without even an ounce of hyperbole. He started the deciding games of both the NLCS and the World Series in 2016, dominating the Dodgers ...2024See more articles Quinn Harris breaking news

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 160Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images The Cubs record their 82nd win in a 1-0 shutout. That game had to make Cubs fans of a certain age remember games of the 60’s and 70’s. The Reds got a complete game with one run allowed. That’s going to win a game, what, 90 percent of the time? Probably more. Five hits, no walks. Tough break, sir. He allowed one double and it cost him. At 34 years of ag...2024See more Michael Reaves breaking news

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 157Eric Hartline-Imagn Images The Cubs were overpowered in the opener in Philly and lose 6-2. The Cubs were roadkill in Philadelphia Monday night. This isn’t a giant surprise. With 53 wins, the Phillies have more wins at home than any other team. This is their final home series of the season and they’ve now clinched the National League East title. They are half a game behind the Dodgers for t...2024See more articles Nate Pearson headline news

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 154Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images Cubs pitching leads the way to a 3-1 win. With dozens of blown saves and really inconsistent offensive output leading the way, it wouldn’t be difficult to imagine this Cubs team being 10 plus games under .500 and near the bottom of the National League. Shōta Imanaga, rightly, gets a lot of the credit for that. The Cubs are 22-6 when Imanaga starts and 57-...2024See also Quinn Harris news and rumors

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 150David Banks-Imagn Images The Cubs return home with a 9-2 pounding of the A’s. The Cubs came back home and the offense got into gear quickly. Putting together a team isn’t some literal chemistry equation or evenly a math equation. But it’s hard not to think the team needs another catalyst or two. The last half of this year has seen an explosive offense, except when the offense is missing in...2024See more David Banks

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 148Photo by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images The Cubs falter late, losing 6-5 to the Rockies. This feeling this morning, it’s different than it has been in a while. The beauty of an in-season vacation is that I was out of contact during the Cleveland series. Because of that, I’m having trouble remembering the last time that things were so frustrating that I’m looking for where the ride ends so th...2024Read about Mark Leiter availability report

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 133Photo by Justin K. Aller/Getty Images It’s the fifth victory in six games as the Cubs win 9-5. So where were you all on May 28? That was the last time the Cubs finished a day over .500. I’m not saying that it was a long time ago, but Ben Brown was the Superhero in that one, a 6-3 win against the Brewers. We miss you, Ben. Get well! After a 17-9 start, the team slowly tailed off. I think ...2024Continue with Ben Brown availability report

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 130Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs offense explodes in a 14-2 win. Finally! After an interminably long road, this team made it back to .500. Unfortunately, the trip back took so long that it’s unlikely this team can continue on and get into legitimate contention. Fangraphs has the Cubs projected for 82 wins and a 3.3 percent chance of making the postseason. I’m not prepared to quibble ...2024See more Patrick Wisdom injury report

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 129Albert Cesare/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK The Cubs win the opener in Miami, 6-3. On April 26, the Cubs reached their high water mark at 17-9. That was a start so fantastic that the Cubs could go .500 the rest of the way and they’d win 85 games. 85 wins would have reached the playoffs last season and figures to be within a game or two this year at worst. As we all know, the bottom fe...2024Visit the page Craig Counsell injury report

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 128Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images The Cubs stay hot with a 10-2 win over the Tigers. I’m still a little walking dead after these last couple of weeks of being here there and everywhere, but a good night’s sleep in my own bed was a nice step forward. Hopefully, I’m going to be settled in for the remainder of the season. And let’s hope the Cubs give us plenty of entertaining baseball down t...2024Visit the page World Series injury update

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 126Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs win the Javy/Javy matchup 3-1. I do promise to get back to usual, but I hit the road early tomorrow for a drive to Miami. After what was basically a 13 hour travel day Sunday, a 4½ hour drive Wednesday morning is just perfect. And then the return trip Thursday. I ought to be fully back to normal by about Sunday. Tonight was a bowling night and ...2024Visit the page Javier Assad

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 120Photo by Jason Miller/Getty Images This game produced some very large WPA scores. Hi there! Once again, it’s your substitute Heroes and Goats writer again. As noted last week, Thomas Smith is away and will return for the final game of the Blue Jays series this weekend. In his stead, I’m just going to post the chart for the game, the three heroes and three goats, and the Player of the Game ...2024Continue with Blue Jays injuries

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 117Photo by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The Cubs win 8-2 to take the series from the Twins. I mean no disrespect to the Twins, but when I was looking into them ahead of this series, I saw a team that has feasted on bad teams with an unusual fervor. On the one hand, all you can do is beat the team in the other dugout. This isn’t college football and you aren’t lining up cupcakes to boost your...2024Continue with Nuccio DiNuzzo availability report

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 114Photo by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The Cubs win 6-2 and take three of four from the Cards. I’ve been critical of this team for a while now. A combination of under achievement, sloppiness and injuries have waylaid the team’s hopes. They’ve played much better ball the last month than they have since the first month of the season. But with the amount of ground they’d need to make up to get...2024Click for news about Nuccio DiNuzzo availability report

From the department of really specific and random baseball stats: The Cubs are the first team in MLB history with an eight-game stretch that includes 98 hits, 80 runs, 43 extra base hits, 18 steals, and 14 homers. The Cubs are 7-1 over this stretch and are playing some of their best baseball of the year. This...2024Visit the page Charles LeClaire contract

I know I’m having a selective memory problem, but I just feel like every year there is some disappointment involving games with the Marlins. Some of them are obvious. The recent post season loss. The 2003 soul-crushing NLCS loss. Heck, go all the way back to 1997 and they were a...2024Check it out Adbert Alzolay salary rumors

Were I someone to place bets on baseball, this would have been the rare game I’d have waded into the mix. Six straight tough games with the Dodgers and Yankees (completed at 3-3), then fly to play in a weird place? Without looking at their schedule, I wonder how many ti...2024Click for news about Javier Assad scores

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 145Photo by Brian Rothmuller/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The Cubs win their second straight over the Dodgers, 6-3. I’ve always said that in modern baseball it is possible to pile up a lot of wins late in the season against bad teams just playing out the schedule. Wait, this was the team that formerly boasted the NL’s best record. While the Cubs did recently pile up some late season wins ...2024Click for news about Fergie Jenkins stats

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 143Photo by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The sprint to the end begins with a 2-1 win. The Yankees pitching staff should get a hat tip for their dominance over a Cubs offense that had been performing at the highest level I’d seen in years. Even in victory on Sunday afternoon the Cubs offense managed only three hits, one a double, two walks and two runs batted in. Two runs with that level of pr...2024Click for news about Nuccio DiNuzzo
