• The Cubs need a bullpen fix — and fast

Photo by Masterpress/Getty Images Sunday’s meltdown was one of the worst in recent memory. As a refresher, one of the things that torpedoed — to use a current baseball-related word — the Cubs’ 2024 season was some awful bullpen work over the first couple of months. These are the pitchers who were in the Cubs’ Opening Day bullpen in 2024: Yency Almonte, Adbert Alzolay, Jose Cuas, Mark Leite...2025

Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty Images Did you get an invite to spring training? Anne Rogers talks to Jac Caglianone about being invited to big league camp. “Being able to share a field with Bobby and Vinnie, being able to see how much influence Salvy has with being the captain and go-to guy is really exciting,” Caglianone said in a phone conversation. “I’m super excited to learn from th...2025

• Phillies Outright Jose Cuas
Right-handed reliever Jose Cuas went unclaimed on waivers and was assigned outright to Triple-A Lehigh Valley, MLBTR has learned. He was originally designated for assignment back on Dec. 23, but the holidays freeze up the waiver/DFA process every year, leading to prolonged stints in limbo for a handful of players. Cuas will stick with the…...2025

• 2024 Heroes and Goats: Biggest comebacks of the year

Photo 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...2024

Photo by Quinn Harris/Getty Images Shota Imanaga nabs the Rizzo Award for his rookie season. As the 2024 season is on a collision course with its conclusion, it is time to start looking back and closing the books on the season. Unfortunately, the Cubs season came to a close several weeks ago. The playoffs are the goal for every team, but certainly for a large market team with a rabid fan b...2024

• 2024 Cubs final season grades

Photo 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...2024

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 13

Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports Too many walks allowed, too few hits doom Cubs in Seattle. Two weeks do not make a baseball season by any means. However, I chuckle every time I hear someone say that the Cubs didn’t really do anything in the offseason. Certainly, running it back with a team that didn’t reach the playoffs and hoping that internal growth seems like a silly plan. That said, ...2024

Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs drop an avalanche on the Rockies. Not to echo off of yesterday’s story too much, but the Cubs drew one weak opponent early on. They’ve flat out dominated the first two games of this series. First and foremost, you beat the team across from you. This isn’t college or high school athletics where you can schedule some easier preseason teams as warm...2024

Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports Trounced in Texas. Anyone who turned the game off after the Cubs took a 2-0 lead, you were the clear winner. Sadly, the next biggest win would be if you just tuned out and did something else with your Saturday on an early spring day. I suspect the majority of you watched, listened or at least followed closely a game this early in the season. You’re going to h...2024

Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images That was an ugly, ugly loss. This... this is not the way we wanted the 2024 Chicago Cubs season to start. An injury to the team’s best pitcher and a blowout loss? Ugh. The Cubs lost to the Rangers 11-2 Saturday and unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of good stuff to report to you. But, report I will! The Cubs scored first, so that’s ... about the only posi...2024

• The narrow path to 90 wins

Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports The path to the playoffs is narrow, and it’s unlikely the Royals will find it. Every year, I put the Royals’ schedule into a spreadsheet and follow a simple formula to create a path to a 90-win season: Win or split series at home. Win or split road series against weaker teams. Don’t get swept. I don’t figure in any sweeps and split all four-game and two-game...2024

Photo by Chris Coduto/Getty Images The Cubs outfielder smacked two homers Monday. Spring Training results don’t mean much. This, we all know. Cubs right fielder Seiya Suzuki sure wishes they did, though. He hit two homers and likely finished his spring season with six of them and a 1.593 OPS. This is how he was hitting in August and September last year and we sure hope it carries over. If ...2024

"After the Cubs took that 7-6 lead, Julian Merryweather, Jose Cuas, Colten Brewer and Riley Thompson combined for four scoreless relief innings, allowing three hits with no walks and two strikeouts."

"Jose Cuas, operating as the opener, immediately gave up a pair of runs in the first inning, something that has traditionally doomed the Royals."
