    Kyle Hendricks pitches in Game 7 of the 2016 World Series | Getty Images The righthander had a stellar career in Chicago. One thing to remember about Kyle Hendricks’ mostly good-to-great 11 seasons in a Cubs uniform is that they nearly didn’t happen. And wouldn’t have, if a proposed trade of Ryan Dempster to the Braves for Randall Delgado would have been consummated near the trade deadline...2024

That produced this bit of interesting baseball history: The news that Clayton Kershaw will come back in 2025 reminds me that Greg Maddux was teammates with both...2024

    Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports Instead of having no words for this awful loss, I have words. A lot of words. Baseball, they say, is a marathon, not a sprint. That’s why it’s usually a bad idea to overreact to one great win, or one horrid loss. This time, though, I’m going to make an exception to that general rule.

They were 13-27 on May 16, already 13 games out of first place and their season essentially over. So they sold off again at the deadline, and wound up going 60-62 the rest of the year, and 28-27 after August 1, perhaps presaging their excellent...2024
