Dale Zanine-Imagn Images A look at the complete standings and top WPA games. The photo at the top of this post is an unusual image to see. Not just because of a rare appearance of the red billed Cubs hat. Kyle Tucker is coming from left field and not his familiar right field and catching the ball in front of Pete Crow-Armstrong. This was, of course, from the All-Star Game where Tucker sta...2025

Photo by Peter Joneleit/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Here are my assessments of Cubs player performances so far this year. As befits a first-place team, most of them are pretty good. The Cubs really couldn’t have done much better so far this year. They have three All-Stars, two of them starting players. They’re in first place in the NL Central, though by just one game, and have had une...2025

• Minor League Wrap: Pedro Ramirez walks it off; Alexey Lumpuy hits for the cycle

Pedro Ramirez | Caitie McMekin/News Sentinel / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images It’s July 10, but the Cubs system saved the fireworks for today. A walkoff home run, a cycle, three home runs in South Bend and Owen Caissie stays hot. Right-hander Thomas Mangus, the Cubs’ 18th-round pick last year, was promoted to Low-A Myrtle Beach from Mesa. Right-hander Eli Morgan started another rehab a...2025

• Cubs roster moves: Matt Shaw and Nate Pearson optioned, Eli Morgan to injured list

Photo by Sean M. Haffey/Getty Images The first of these moves, Shaw being sent down, was not expected. The Cubs gave rookie Matt Shaw the third-base job out of Spring Training. The 2023 first-round pick had hit well at all levels of the minor leagues. Unfortunately, that hasn’t yet translated to MLB performance. In 18 games so far this year and 68 plate appearances, Shaw is batting .172/.2...2025

David Frerker-Imagn Images The Cubs’ sloppy play leads to a 10-4 loss. Monday night’s game has an awful lot to unpack. If you are an impulsive reactor, I’d say today is a day to take a deep breath. Recall that this team has played terrific baseball over the first few weeks. The frustrating aspect to the start of this season has been that the losses have been like this. The Cubs were leadi...2025

Photo by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images Boyd was throwing a real nice game until Edman interrupted it with a three-run homer. Tommy Edman has been a Cubs nemesis dating back to his days with the Cardinals. He entered Friday night’s game batting .280/.320/.500 with 13 home runs in 68 career games against the Cubs — by far his most homers against any team (next most: seven against the Pirates ...2025

The Cubs did show a brief sign of life in the fourth inning and the game was tied after four. This game was all Rangers, though. Shōta Imanaga had an uncharacteristically bad day. He allowed a couple of homers and...2025

• The Cubs need a bullpen fix — and fast

Photo by Masterpress/Getty Images Sunday’s meltdown was one of the worst in recent memory. As a refresher, one of the things that torpedoed — to use a current baseball-related word — the Cubs’ 2024 season was some awful bullpen work over the first couple of months. These are the pitchers who were in the Cubs’ Opening Day bullpen in 2024: Yency Almonte, Adbert Alzolay, Jose Cuas, Mark Leite...2025

Allan Henry-Imagn Images I thought we had left these in 2024. This was supposed to be a happy recap, highlighted by Kyle Tucker’s three-run homer in the eighth inning that gave the Cubs a four-run lead. Tucker has hit very well in the early going, so far he’s been worth the haul that was sent to the Astros for him. The other thing Jed Hoyer & Co. supposedly did this winter was address the ...2025

Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images The Cubs offense got shut down on a very cold afternoon. Dire weather forecasts of all-day rain made it seem very unlikely, early this morning, that this game would be played. But the rain fell mostly south of the city — it just sprinkled a couple of times at the ol’ ballyard — and so the Cubs and Rangers were able to complete their three-game series...2025
