    Photo by Elsa/Getty Images Could any of them interest the Cubs? Opening Day of the 2024 MLB season is two weeks from this Thursday. Most teams have the players they want on their Opening Day rosters already in camp. But injuries happen — as appears to be the case with Cubs righthander Jameson Taillon — and perhaps teams are still looking for backup plans. Also, there are still the Boras Th...2024

    Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images Some of these are pretty good. Others, not so much. In re-reading my midseason grades article, I noted this passage: Last year’s team went 39-31 after the break, a .557 winning percentage. If this year’s team can play to that percentage in the 73 remaining games, they’ll go 41-32. That would result in an 83-79 final record. I don’t claim to be prescient...2023

If I had told you, before Wednesday’s game, that the Cubs would score seven runs off Pirates righthander Mitch Keller — who held them scoreless last month in Pittsburgh — you’d probably have been pretty happy. Welp. That didn’t work out too well, did it. Justin Steele was charged with almost as many runs — six — ...2023

If you were someone giving up and deciding for at least the 20th time that this team was trash by the top of the third inning, show yourself out. I don’t know how to help you.

    Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images How is the front office doing with the franchise? This is a companion piece to the one I wrote yesterday about David Ross’ performance as Cubs manager. As many of you know, I haven’t been a big fan of Hoyer’s front office. My perception of Hoyer & Co. is that they rely far too much on analytics and not enough on scouting.

    Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images Some things were good for the Cubs before the All-Star break. And some... were not. (If that sounds familiar, I wrote the same words in last year’s midseason grades article.) The Cubs stand seven games out of first place in the N.L. Central at the All-Star break. This still shapes up as a weak division that could be taken with fewer than 90 wins. One th...2023

Rain delayed action at Wrigley Field Tuesday for an hour and 25 minutes and when it got started, the Cubs didn’t wait long before unleashing bats that had been awfully quiet for almost a week.
