• The 5 worst Cubs games of 2024Photo by Julio Aguilar/Getty Images You probably don’t want to remember these, but here we are. There have been other years when I’ve posted a number of blowout losses in this annual recap. In some ways, those are easier to take, a team runs up a huge score against the Cubs but it still counts for only one loss. Other times I’ve filled these with soul-crushing defeats. This time, I’m going...2024Continue with Julio Aguilar headline news

• 2024 Heroes and Goats: Biggest comebacks of the yearPhoto by Matt Thomas/San Diego Padres/Getty Images Here’s the anatomy of a comeback. As we make our way through the offseason, I thought it would be fun to look at some of the biggest comebacks that occurred in the 2024 season. One of the unique qualities of baseball is that there is always time for a comeback. The odds of a comeback get steeper and steeper of course. But technically, unt...2024Click for news about Yu Darvish latest news

• A few thoughts about new Cubs lefthander Matthew BoydPhoto by Jason Miller/Getty Images This could be a good value signing. Or not. As always, we await developments. As you know, the Cubs signed lefthander Matthew Boyd to a two-year, $29 million contract very early Monday. The signing has not yet been officially announced by the team. You can read Josh’s thoughts about Boyd at the link above. But I also have opinions! So here they are. Boyd ...2024Read about Matthew Boyd news

• Three offseason moves the Cubs need to makePhoto by Michael Reaves/Getty Images Here are some things that would absolutely, positively improve the team for 2025. I know, I know. The first thing many of you are going to say when you think of “three offseason moves the Cubs need to make” is “Sign Juan Soto.” It seems clear that’s not going to happen. So let’s look at some other things the Cubs might do to put them in a position where...2024Check it out Michael Reaves news and rumors

• Here’s the Cubs’ entire 40-man roster and what might happen with it this offseasonPhoto by Griffin Quinn/MLB Photos via Getty Images The team has many decisions to make. Last week, I posted this article about the 14 (!) players the Cubs have who are arbitration-eligible for 2025. In the poll attached to that article, 57 percent of you said the Cubs would non-tender at least seven of those players, with some commenting that it might be as many as nine.

• 2024 Cubs final season gradesPhoto by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images Obviously, we wish this year’s Cubs would have done better. But there were still some performances to celebrate. As they did in 2023, the Cubs dug themselves a deep hole early on this year, went on a pretty good run and were briefly in a wild-card spot, then couldn’t hold on to it in September. They did finish 83-79, the same record as last y...2024Check it out Matt Dirksen injury update

Bryce Harper homered off Justin Steele in the first inning Tuesday, his 30th, and... well, after that, not much from the Phillies. The Cubs offense, meanwhile, pounded out 15 hits and drew four walks and romped over the Phils 10-4. Tanner Banks, normally a rel...2024See also Cody Bellinger availability report

Javier Assad, SP, CHC Assad fell apart against the Phillies on Wednesday, allowing 8 ER's including 3 HR's in 4.1 IP, while striking out 3 and walking 3. Assad spent the first two years of his career far outpitching his peripherals, posting a 3.06 ERA in 2022-2023 despite a 4.49 xFIP.

The Cubs swept the Nationals a few weeks ago in Washington and outscored them 26-10. Unfortunately, since then the Cubs are just 6-9, and 3-6 at Wrigley Field. Here’s hoping this series ends better than the last three home sets. For more on the Nats, here’s Patrick Reddington, who runs our SB N...2024See more Greg Fiume

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 146Photo by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images The Cubs lose a wild one, 10-8. It’s possible some of us are going to diverge on our impressions of this one. In my head, this team played itself out of contention before the trade deadline. The last road trip for this team did, at least for a moment, put the Cubs on the periphery of the playoff picture. But even then, they were facing a decent gap, t...2024Check it out World Series

Entering this game there had been 199 home runs hit in the home of the Dodgers, two more than had been hit in Yankee Stadium.

You asked for meaningful baseball in September and by gum, you have got it. Now let’s hope we all survive it.

When the Cubs departed for the just-completed seven-game road trip to Detroit and Pittsbugh, my feeling was that they needed to go 5-2 to keep pace with, or improve their position on, other postseason contenders. With Sunday’s well-played 10-1 win over the Pirates, the Cubs did just ...2023Continue with Justin Berl
