• Cubs 3, Diamondbacks 2: A little bit of everything

Photo by Norm Hall/Getty Images Good pitching. Good defense. A record-tying homer. A daring rush across the plate. And more! Chase Field has been a house of pain for the Cubs over the years. Before Monday night’s 3-2, 11-inning Cubs win over the Diamondbacks, it had been nearly two years since the Cubs won in Phoenix. That might not seem so long ago, but in that May 2022 game, Rafael Orteg...2024

• The most colorful hobby box I've ever opened, part 2

Two things I've noticed since posting the first half of my hobby box of 2024 Heritage the other day.The first is that out of all the regular player and manager cards I've pulled so far, not one features a posed shot. Those were staple shots for Heritage all the way through last year. Just about all of the base Dodgers cards from last year's Heritage are posed shots.To go from that to absolut...2024

• Cubs 3, Mariners 2: It’s Michael Busch’s league and we are all just living in it

Steven Bisig-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs got themselves a real keeper in their January trade with the Dodgers. Not many Cubs fans, I would say, had heard of Michael Busch when the Cubs traded for him (and Yency Almonte) back in January. This was true even though Busch had been a first-round pick of the Dodgers (31st overall) back in 2019 (Cubs could have had Busch back then, too, they select...2024

Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports Shōta and some homers for the win. That’s more like it! The Cubs have been a little sloppy over the last few days. But a whole lot more of it came together Saturday night. Shōta Imanaga was slightly less dominant that he’d been in his first two starts, but was still very good. The offense wasn’t quite as relentless as it has been at times. But, they slugged t...2024

• Cubs 4, Mariners 1: Shōta Imanaga does it again

Photo by Alika Jenner/Getty Images The Cubs lefthander turned in yet another solid outing, and some long balls put this game in the “W” column. Shōta Imanaga, so far in his MLB career, has been the sort of starting pitcher that back in the day we used to call a “stopper.” What that meant was that this was the guy who could stop a team’s losing skid. Which Imanaga did in five-plus solid inn...2024

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 13

Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports Too many walks allowed, too few hits doom Cubs in Seattle. Two weeks do not make a baseball season by any means. However, I chuckle every time I hear someone say that the Cubs didn’t really do anything in the offseason. Certainly, running it back with a team that didn’t reach the playoffs and hoping that internal growth seems like a silly plan. That said, ...2024

• 2024 Cubs attendance watch: The weather and ticket pricing for the first homestand

David Banks-USA TODAY Sports Some interesting numbers for both as the 2024 season begins. The Cubs won five of six games played at Wrigley Field last week. So, that’s good! What wasn’t good was the weather, which was pretty awful through the entire homestand. No game-time temperature was over 47 and the average for the six dates was 43. It rained during play in three of the six games and t...2024

Photo by Brandon Sloter/Getty Images An excellent bounce-back game. The Cubs have started this season about as hot as I can remember any team since the 2016 team. The Opening Day loss was a close one, marred by Justin Steele’s injury. That hiccup in the sequencing on the pitching maybe cost them a win in that one. They got smoked in game two. In the nine games since then, they are 7-2 wit...2024

• Cubs 9, Rockies 8: Sweep!

Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs fought off the weather and a Rockies rally to complete the three-game sweep. The weather outside was frightful. And, for a while, so was the Cubs’ bullpen. But in the end, the Cubs hung on Wednesday night for a 9-8 win over the Rockies, their fourth straight victory.

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images Shōta Imanaga dazzles as the Cubs win back-to-back games. So many times through the years we’ve watched a guy be jacked up and either over throw or in some way let the moment get to them. That was not the case for Shōta Imanaga. Shōta was clearly amped for this game. But, he was a guy that was razor sharp in this one. I won’t overstate. These Rockies w...2024

"One other thing I’d like to address is the rumors that began to fly when Christopher Morel didn’t make it to the convention."

2023
"Christopher Morel led off with a ground ball to the usually reliable Willy Adames at short."

2022
"Here’s the greeting he gave to plate umpire Gary Cederstrom that afternoon: That’s somewhat reminiscent of what we saw from Christopher Morel when he made his MLB debut earlier this year, and Morel definitely has looked to Contreras as a mentor."

2020
"The Cubs have added a pair of right-handers, Cory Abbott and Keegan Thompson, as well as infielder Christopher Morel to their 40-man roster, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune was among those to report."
