• A look at Cubs trades in the pre-expansion era: 1922Max Flack | Bettman Archive One of the most famous deals in all of Cubs history was made in this year. The 1922 Cubs hung around first place early, then a bad June put them 11 games out. They then went 38-20 in July and August and at one point in August had climbed to within 3½ games of first place at 64-49, following a seven-game winning streak. But a 16-25 finish put them in third place....2025Read about Gabby Hartnett news

• A look at Cubs trades in the pre-expansion era: 1925Rabbit Maranville | Photo by Bettmann Archive/Getty Images This was a rough year for the North Siders. But they did make a couple of good acquisitions. The 1925 season was a peculiar outlier in franchise history. After three decent seasons where the Cubs finished with winning records but well out of first place, they collapsed and finished last in 1925 at 68-86 — their first-eve last-place...2025Check it out Rabbit Maranville news today

• A look at Cubs trades in the pre-expansion era: 1926Photo by George Rinhart/Corbis via Getty Images One very significant player was acquired in this calendar year. The Cubs changed managers in 1926, hiring Joe McCarthy, who had previously managed at Louisville (American Association). Whether it was McCarthy or his players or both, the team immediately improved over a poor 1925 showing. In contention early, an 11-17 June took them out of pen...2025Visit the page George Rinhart Corbis news and rumors

• A look at Cubs trades in the pre-expansion era: 1939Getty Images It would be the last time the Cubs would be near contention until 1945. Coming off their 1938 NL pennant, the Cubs got off to a good start in 1939, winning five of their first six. But then they lost seven of nine and were never really in serious contention after that, though they did manage to get to 70-56 in early September, 6½ games out of first place.

Timeline
- 2025
"Doyle, known as “Dirty Jack” in his playing days (per his SABR biography, he never quite understood the nickname), became the Cubs’ top scout in 1920 and besides Hartnett, was responsible for the Cubs signing Charlie Root, Pat Malone, Billy Herman, Stan Hack, and Phil Cavaretta, as well as recommending the Rule 5 selection of Hack Wilson — basically, Doyle was personally responsible for signing all the Cubs’ top players during their pennant runs from 1929-45, back in an era when scouting was needed for every single signing." - 2024
"The team record is five games, by Hack Wilson (1928), Ryne Sandberg (1989), Sammy Sosa (1998) and Christopher Morel (2023)." - 2023
"From BCB’s JohnW53, here are a couple of fun facts about Grace’s cycle and Cubs team cycles: The Cubs have gone even longer without a cycle: from July 1, 1891 (Jimmy Ryan) to June 23, 1930 (Hack Wilson)." - 2022
"Sosa and Hack Wilson are the only Cubs to ever hit 50 or more in a season, and Wilson’s came in the freak 1930 season, when the entire NL hit ." - 2020
"From Dustin Pedroia to Tim Lincecum, Yogi Berra to Hack Wilson, baseball is loaded with little guys who can play, even if they occasionally are mistaken for jockeys." - 2017
"Chicago Cubs outfielder Hack Wilson was a tremendous power hitter in the National League, a player whose career was tragically short due to his drunkenness and violent tendencies." - 2016
"It does surprise us because even though baseball history includes some little guys who hit home runs (Hack Wilson, also listed at 5'6", hit 56 of them in 1930), they played a long time ago." - 2015
"Yet right now, odds remain better that Cubs Hall of Famer Hack Wilson will make a personal appearance in Wrigley Field before Sosa."

Getty Images It’s the last time any Cub has accomplished this feat. Hitting for the cycle is a fairly rare feat, although in recent times it’s happened maybe half a dozen times a year. Still, in all of MLB history, there have been 340 cycles, including one this year by Luis Arraez of the Marlins. That makes them slightly less rare than no-hitters, of which there have been 318.
