• Brewers 8, Cubs 7: This team really doesn’t quit... everPhoto by George Gaza/MLB Photos via Getty Images The Cubs fell way behind, staged a comeback, but fell short. This was not the sort of game the Cubs have played in recent weeks. Jameson Taillon was off his game Thursday, lasting only four innings and allowing three home runs. Génesis Cabrera had a rough relief appearance, serving up a three-run homer that put the Cubs behind 8-3 in the fif...2025See more articles MLB Photos -

• Hey, Tom Ricketts! You need to get Kyle Tucker signed now — and not just for baseball reasonsDavid Banks-Imagn Images There’s something else that this signing would do for the Cubs. With Kyle Tucker off to a great start with the Cubs, the chorus of voices urging Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts to open up the team wallet and sign Tucker to an extension before he hits free agency has gotten louder. While there’s no question about Tucker’s abilities on the field — he’s hitting the way he ...2025See more Tom Ricketts news and rumors

• A valentine to a ValentineWe card bloggers aren't the mushy type. If we're going to blog a Valentine's Day-themed post, it better be about Bobby or Ellis or Fred. Or at least show some red or pink parallels. I've done it all before and don't have anything else clever to write about this fake holiday. So I thought I'd lean in all the way and show most of the cards from Bobby Valentine's career. I collected E...2025Click for news about Bobby Valentine injury update -

• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 1981Photo by Ron Vesely/MLB Photos via Getty Images This was a year of great change for the Chicago Cubs. This season was, as you know, interrupted by a strike that wiped out about a third of the games. I have no doubt that had the season been played to its completion, the Cubs would have set a franchise record for losses. They lost 98 games in 1980 and did not improve over the winter.

• Today in Cubs history: Manny Trillo walks off the Phillies
Photo by Ron Vesely/Getty Images This was quite unexpected. In 1978, there were at least some expectations for the Cubs to do well. They’d collapsed the last couple of months of 1977 after being in first place for more than two months, but added slugger Dave Kingman to their lineup and hoped a potent offense would help put them in contention. As it turned out, that didn’t happen. Kingman m...2023See also Bruce Sutter

• Phillies 12, Cubs 3: Can we now admit there’s still something wrong with Jameson Taillon?
Photo by Carmen Mandato/Getty Images The Cubs starter got pounded again. I’m not sure what the Cubs are thinking about regarding Jameson Taillon. Whatever it is, doing what they’re doing now is not helping him or the team. I am obviously no medical expert, but it sure seems like the groin injury that made him miss a couple of starts in April is still bothering Taillon. Taillon before the i...2023See more articles Jameson Taillon injury

• The 1975 Topps countdown, worst to best (No. 120-101)Well, three out of the four posts I've made this week have some sort of mention of 1975 Topps, so why not make it 4-for-5, that always sound better than 3-for-4 in the baseball realm.Once I get through this episode of the countdown, there will be just 100 cards left, which means nothing but greatness ahead.So let's get to it, no fancy intro this time. 120: Ed Kranepool (card 324)S...2024Visit the page Tom Seaver

"After that group was all traded off around the same time, Bill Buckner and Dave Kingman became must-see baseball at Wrigley Field." - 2024
"Since that windy, warm 1974 afternoon (and since I was at the game, I can tell you it was far windier than the 12 miles per hour reported by Dozer), just three Cubs have had eight or more RBI in a game: Dave Kingman, who also smacked three homers and drove in eight runs on May 14, 1978; Barry Foote, who had his eight-RBI day April 22, 1980, and Sammy Sosa, whose three homers drove in nine runs against the Rockies August 10, 2002." - 2023
"Here are all 6 previous streaks of four games: Bill Nicholson, July 21-23, 1944 (two games on 23rd, one HR at Boston, three at New York)Dave Kingman, June 15-18, 1979 (three at San Diego, one at Los AngelesRick Wilkins, June 7-11, 1993 (three at New York, one at San Francisco)Sammy Sosa, Aug." - 2022
"Only four other Cubs have ever hit more than 42 (Billy Williams’ mark in 1970, and the team record for a lefthanded hitter, and that one’s probably not going to be broken either): Derrek Lee (46 in 2005), Andre Dawson (49 in 1987), Dave Kingman (48 in 1979), and Ernie Banks, who did it four times: 44 in 1955, 43 in 1957, 47 in 1958 and 45 in 1959." - 2016
"His homer in the third inning made Walker the fourth Mets player to go deep nine times in April, matching Dave Kingman (1976), Carlos Delgado (2006) and John Buck (2013)." - 2015
"Joe Torre, Gary Carter and Dave Kingman are among the 144 players who have manned third base for the Mets." - 2014
"The history of the Met's cleanup spot is rather spotty, though Dave Kingman was the Mets' cleanup man in 410 games and had as much if not more raw power than either of the two players with more cleanup starts (Darryl Strawberry, 599; Mike Piazza, 554)."

• Will the Cubs have a 40-homer man in 2025?Photo by Nick Cammett/Diamond Images via Getty Images It’s been quite some time. Derrek Lee hit 46 home runs for the Cubs in 2005. That’s 20 years ago! Since then, no Cub has hit 40 or more home runs. The most by any Cub in the last 20 seasons is 39, by Kris Bryant in his MVP season in 2016. Kyle Schwarber hit 38 in 2019.
