• Cubs Activate Javier Assad and Miguel Amaya, Option Nate Pearson, DFA Jon Berti
Keeping it simple with just the press release, though I will note that the Cubs have announced Javier Assad will start Tuesday night in place of Ben Brown. The Chicago Cubs today reinstated catcher Miguel Amaya and right-handed pitcher Javier Assad from the 60-day injured list. In corresponding moves, the Cubs optioned right-handed pitcher Nate … The post Cubs Activate Javier Assad and Migue...2025

The Cubs announced today that catcher Miguel Amaya and right-hander Javier Assad have both been reinstated from the 60-day injured list. In corresponding active roster moves, the Cubs have optioned right-hander Nate Pearson to Triple-A and designated infielder Jon Berti for assignment. The 40-man roster had one vacancy, with Berti’s DFA clearing another. Berti, 35,…...2025

• Three up, three down: An update on the Cubs, August 4 edition

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images The Cubs split six games over the past week. I know that some Cubs fans are panicking over the team’s two-game deficit in the NL Central and the Brewers appearing to just not lose... at all. Since the beginning of June, the Brewers are 36-16. That’s... just not sustainable, not over a time much longer than that. Even the 103-win 2016 Cubs did...2025

Matthew Boyd had another nice game, but it was ruined by a bullpen meltdown. | Photo by Geoff Stellfox/Getty Images The Cubs were going along just fine until a disastrous eighth inning. The headline is what baseball folks will tell you. Walks are going to happen, but leadoff walks almost always lead to bad things. That’s what happened to the Cubs in the eighth inning of Saturday’s game, af...2025

• Cubs roster moves: Ballesteros, Hollowell optioned, Castro, Kittredge, Soroka added

Photo by Kylie Bridenhagen/MLB Photos via Getty Images The Cubs made a flurry of roster moves before Friday’s game. The Cubs acquired four new players by trade before Thursday’s deadline: Willi Castro, Taylor Rogers, Andrew Kittredge and Michael Soroka. This is a bit confusing and I’ll try to make clear all the roster moves, both 40-man and 26-man, here. Kittredge and Soroka were added to ...2025

Photo by John Fisher/Getty Images The Cubs avoid a sweep with a 10-3 win ahead of the trade deadline. Phew. That was a cathartic win. You could feel the tension building in Chicago and throughout Cubs Nation. I mean, way back in game number 72, the Cubs reached 18 games over .500. Here they are 36 games later at that same mark.
