With another huge addition to the 2025 Cubs, Heroes and Goats turns its attention to the 2024 Astros. Even before Kyle Tucker was traded to the Cubs, that team had some players that have Cubs connections.

Lee/The Boston Globe via Getty Images There aren’t as many as in some past years. I’ve written similar articles to this one in the past and there has generally been a good selection of former Cubs to root for in the MLB postseason. Not this year. The eight clubs remaining as we head to the Division Series round have a total of only ...2024See also Kyle Schwarber latest news -

With a little over two weeks left in the regular season, the Royals seem poised to make their first playoff appearance in nine seasons.

For the post-...2024Check it out New York Yankees news -
• Outside The Confines: Here comes the JudgePhoto by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images Danny Jansen plays for both teams. Aaron Judge is really good. Juan Soto is getting paid. And other news from around MLB. Good morning. The Cubs are playing a morning game, so I guess that makes it a good morning. On the other hand, it’s Paul Skenes versus Kyle Hendricks, so. . . . As expected, Danny Jansen made history by being the first major leaguer t...2024Click for news about Danny Jansen news today -

• Braves News: Offense Comes Alive in Win Over Minnesota, Matt Olson’s Big Night, MoreJesse Johnson-USA TODAY Sports The offense finally had a big game. Last week, while the Braves did go 5-2, their offense also struggled. It was great to see Atlanta’s pitching perform at the level that it did, but winning consistently while only scoring around three runs a game is a hard trend to sustain. Fortunately, the Braves decided the start of this week would be different. Atlanta ...2024Continue with Matt Olson news today

All of the departed 2016 World Series Cubs have returned to Wrigley Field after the big 2021 selloff, except two: Anthony Rizzo, who will return with the Yankees next month, and Javier Báez. As such, I’m sure the Cubs will give a video tribute to Javy, and he’ll receive a warm welcome back. After that, Javy likely go...2024Continue with World Series injury -

• Tigers 8, Cubs 2: The days grow ever shorterPhoto by Justin Casterline/Getty Images The Cubs dropped the second game of their series with the Tigers. Often, we hear about a sports contest’s game result being “closer than the score indicated.” That was certainly the case for the Cubs’ 8-2 loss to the Tigers Wednesday evening at Wrigley Field, where the game was a two-run deficit for most of the late innings until a disastrous ninth. ...2024See also Justin Casterline scores -

The Royals and Tigers both underwent rebuilds at about the same time, and after some fits and starts, they are both off to good starts in 2024 that could signal a new era for each franchise. Both have had success through dominant pitching early on. The Tigers largely developed theirs in-house, while th...2024Click for news about White Sox scores -
• 2024 AL Central preview: The search for signs of life beyond MinnesotaPhoto by Frank Jansky/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The Twins needed only 87 wins to take the division title in 2023. The ceiling probably won’t be much higher. In 2023, the AL Central was easily the worst division in baseball. It wasn’t in danger of going full 1994 AL West or anything, but at the All-Star break, the Cleveland Guardians were in first place at a dead-even 45-45. All four...2024See more articles AL Central scores -

There will be all sorts of takes that suggest that this team choked down the stretch. None of that feels fair. Thi...2023Check it out Marcus Stroman
