• 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 73David Banks-Imagn Images The Cubs win the series opener 5-3 from the Brewers. When the Brewers come to town, you can almost always expect competitive baseball. It seems like even when both of these teams aren’t good, they play each other hard. This year, both teams have been pretty good, so it wasn’t hard to envision a tight, back and forth, tense game. It didn’t disappoint. The Brewers ...2025See more David Banks news and rumors -

• Mets 6, Cubs 2: The difference between these teams? The bullpensVincent Carchietta-Imagn Images The Cubs and Mets aren’t that far apart. But the Mets have better relievers. The Cubs and Mets played evenly for the first six and a half innings of this game, pretty much while the starters were still throwing. Then the bullpens took over and you can see the difference between the two teams. Mets relievers shut down Cubs hitters. Cubs relievers allowed four...2025See more articles Matthew Boyd rumors -

• The Cubs need a bullpen fix — and fastPhoto 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...2025See also Yency Almonte injury status -

Unfortunately, the trip back took so long that it’s unlikely this team can continue on and get into legitimate contention. Fangraphs has the Cubs projected for 82 wins and a 3.3 percent chance of making the postseason. I’m not prepared to quibble ...2024Check it out Patrick Wisdom availability report -
• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 129Albert Cesare/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK The Cubs win the opener in Miami, 6-3. On April 26, the Cubs reached their high water mark at 17-9. That was a start so fantastic that the Cubs could go .500 the rest of the way and they’d win 85 games. 85 wins would have reached the playoffs last season and figures to be within a game or two this year at worst.

• Cubs 7, Blue Jays 5: At last, a win in Canada
Photo by Mark Blinch/Getty Images The Cubs ended a 14-year losing streak north of the border. TORONTO — It required six relievers (seven, if you count Luke Farrell on what was a bullpen day) and some timely hitting, but Wednesday night the Cubs ended a losing streak in Canada that had lasted more than 14 years.

There have been other years when I’ve posted a number of blowout losses in this annual recap.
