• Marlins 6, Cubs 3: Where did the offense go?Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images That’s likely not the headline you were expecting to read, but it’s the one we really need to talk about. You guys are all going to want to talk about Kyle Hendricks and what to do with his rotation spot and by all means, feel free. What I want to talk about is how the Cubs bullpen failed to keep the game close and the offense completely vanished after t...2024See also Kyle Hendricks latest news -
• Chicago Cubs vs. Miami Marlins Game 2 preview, Saturday 4/20, 6:40 CTPhoto by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The Cubs look for a doubleheader split. About Game 1, I have just this to say right now: Gotta figure out why Adbert Alzolay is serving up so many home runs -- already four in only a bit over nine innings. Until then it might be wise to let someone else close games. I will have a full recap of both of today’s doubleheader games tomorrow morning at 8 a....2024See also Chicago Cubs rumors -
• Cubs 5, Diamondbacks 3: Hayden Wesneski saves the dayBrett Davis-USA TODAY Sports The righthander, just called up from Iowa, shut the door on the D-backs. The Cubs summoned bullpen reinforcements from Triple-A Iowa for Wednesday’s game, having had almost all their relievers throw a lot of pitches over the last few games, including two extra-inning games in Arizona. That was not only a smart thing to do, it paid off in the rubber game of this...2024See more articles Hayden Wesneski headline news -
• Diamondbacks 12, Cubs 11: This space intentionally left blankPhoto by Norm Hall/Getty Images I can’t even... Whatever that game was, I did not like it one bit. Well, perhaps that’s too harsh. The Cubs scored a lot of runs! They got a key grand slam from Ian Happ! They were one out away from victory... Nope. Sorry. Going back to “did not like it one bit.” The Diamondbacks beat the Cubs 12-11 in 11 innings Tuesday night in Arizona, and while we can fi...2024Continue with Ian Happ -
• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 16Photo by Norm Hall/Getty Images Erasing 2023? The Cubs swipe one in Arizona. I was watching this game and thinking what a great time it has been to be a Cubs fan over these last 10 years. Even before the Cubs pulled off this win, just seeing this team playing really good baseball yet again. It’s really been fun to watch. Those of you who are under 30 probably don’t have much memory of the...2024Continue with Seiya Suzuki news today -
• Cubs 3, Diamondbacks 2: A little bit of everythingPhoto 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...2024Visit the page Chase Field headline news

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 13Orlando 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, ...2024Continue with Orlando Ramirez injury report -
• The Cubs bullpen is not okayPhoto by Michael Reaves/Getty Images It’s going to be hard to win games if the bullpen can’t protect an eight-run lead Javier Assad deserved better. The Cubs’ current fourth starter, who wasn’t even supposed to be the fifth starter, threw an absolute gem against the San Diego Padres yesterday. In 5+ innings pitched, Assad struck out seven, giving up only three hits while also walking three...2024Visit the page Michael Reaves injury update -
• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 4Photo 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...2024See also Michael Reaves injury status -
• Rangers 4, Cubs 3: Justin Steele leaves with hamstring tightnessPhoto by Stacy Revere/Getty Images This was not a good way to start the 2024 season. I have a request. Next time the Cubs open a season — a year or so from now — could we have a little less controversy and injury? The Cubs lost Game 1 of the 2024 season to the Rangers 4-3 in 10 innings, and also have likely lost ace Justin Steele to the injured list, though for how long is not yet certain....2024Visit the page Justin Steele -
• Reflections on the cusp of the Cubs’ 2024 seasonPhoto by @WillByington / www.willbyington.com This year, I believe the Cubs will be playing October playoff baseball. Remember this? That was Joe Maddon in November 2014, at the freewheeling presser held to introduce him as Cubs manager. The Cubs had just come off three of the worst seasons in recent franchise memory, as Theo Epstein rebuilt the ballclub. They had lost 101, 96 and 89...2024Check it out Joe Maddon -

Timeline
- 2024
"Drew Smyly threw two perfect innings to wrap things up, and I do think this sort of multi-inning relief role is the right one for Smyly." - 2023
"Drew Smyly entered and ended the inning with a strikeout of Blackmon, but not before wild-pitching the runner to second." - 2022
"Drew Smyly will start for the Cubs and Brandon Woodruff will get the call for the Brewers." - 2021
"Jose Altuve's seventh-inning homer off Drew Smyly in the Astros’ 7-2 victory over Atlanta in World Series Game 2 on Wednesday night was the 22nd postseason home run of his career, tying him with Bernie Williams for second on the all-time list." - 2020
"The Giants have signed left-hander Drew Smyly, as per an announcement on the team’s Twitter feed." - 2019
"Texas added left-hander Drew Smyly in a trade at the outset of the offseason and has since signed Lance Lynn on a three-year contract and selected the contract of veteran righty Edinson Volquez, who was signed last offseason to a two-year minor league contract in the wake of August 2017 Tommy John surgery." - 2018
"Drew Smyly wouldn't mind being reunited with Alex Cobb on the Cubs, and the rehabbing left-hander did a little recruiting on Friday." - 2017
"The Cubs not only signed free-agent reliever Brandon Morrow, but they added an extra arm for the future in lefty Drew Smyly." - 2016
"Left-hander Drew Smyly started for the Rays and allowed just six hits in 6 2/3 innings." - 2015
"Adrian Beltre put the Rangers ahead of starter Drew Smyly and the Rays with the 406th home run of his career, and Texas completed a three-game sweep with a 5-3 victory on Sunday afternoon at Globe Life Park." - 2014
"Finding hidden gems in trades of big-name players, such as Ben Zobrist in the 2006 Aubrey Huff trade, Matt Joyce in the 2008 Edwin Jackson trade or, more recently, Drew Smyly in this summer's David Price blockbuster."

With one swing of the bat, Christopher Morel let the Padres know that Monday’s game wasn’t going to define this series. Morel’s fifth-inning grand slam gave the Cubs a 5-1 win and each team has one win in the three-game set.

There are so many things that can happen in a baseball game, and we got just about anything you could think of. Good pitching and bad pitching on both sides. Good defensive plays.

It is very odd, in the year 2024, to not have any audio or video live coverage of a Major League Baseball game. Yes, even in Spring Training, where the Cubs do cover nearly every game, and all those at home. But this one, about 10 miles north of the Cubs’ Sloan Park complex, had none.
