• Cubs roster moves: Justin Steele, Jorge López activated; Jack Neely, Daniel Palencia optioned

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images The Cubs brought back two pitchers from the IL today. Justin Steele has had a 2024 season roughly comparable to his 2023 — except missing about seven or eight starts due to injuries, first with a leg injury suffered on Opening Day, then in late August an elbow issue. Jorge López had been an effective member of the bullpen until suffering a gr...2024

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 151

Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images The Cubs come up short despite two Happ homers. In a season that hasn’t had a massive amount of Cub storylines that have been fun to follow, one that has been for me is Ian Happ. On May 21, Ian’s OPS bottomed out at .624. The Cubs won that day against the Braves and were 27-22. Amazingly, a significant swath of Cubs social media declared Happ a bum and would ...2024

• Athletics 4, Cubs 3: Just... not... quite... enough... again

Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs lost yet another one-run game. The Cubs lost to the Athletics 4-3 Tuesday at Wrigley Field. That makes them 21-28 in one-run games. Now, one-run games are not necessarily a predictor of a team’s success, but flip that record and the Cubs would be 84-67 and solidly in a wild-card spot. Even put it at .500ish at 24-25 and they’d still be competing...2024
