• Cubs 7, Astros 2: A good beginningPhoto by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The Cubs opened their series against the visitors from Houston with a decisive victory. After a lackluster series split against the Marlins, the Cubs needed a game like their 7-2 win over the Astros Tuesday evening at Wrigley Field to show themselves, and everyone else, that they’re still the strong contending team many expected them to be this year.

• The Cubs bullpen is still a problemAdbert Alzolay yells into his glove after blowing his fourth save on Saturday. | John J. Kim/Chicago Tribune Who will close for the team?

• Three up, three down: An update on the Cubs, April 22 editionDavid Banks-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs had a rough week, though there were still some highlights. Since we last met in the “Three up, three down” space here a week ago, the Cubs are 4-3. That’s ... not awful. But it seems a lot worse, doesn’t it? It’s clear that the team misses the offense provided by Seiya Suzuki, who is likely out at least three more weeks. Guys are just going to have to ...2024See more articles David Banks news today -
• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 22Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs were tripped up by the Marlins and so, settle for a weekend split. I know I’m having a selective memory problem, but I just feel like every year there is some disappointment involving games with the Marlins. Some of them are obvious. The recent post season loss. The 2003 soul-crushing NLCS loss. Heck, go all the way back to 1997 and they were a...2024See more Adbert Alzolay rumors -

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 19David Banks-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs ambush the Marlins and win 8-3. After a chaotic road trip, a relatively easy win was just what the doctor ordered to start this six game homestand. As is so often the case, the pendulum swings wildly. Despite two more games Wednesday and Friday where the starter failed to even start the sixth inning, the Cubs head into today’s doubleheader with a very ...2024Continue with David Banks injury update -

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 18Peter van den Berg-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs win the game, the series, and the road trip with 5-3 victory. I like to start with a disclaimer. You are welcome to your own fandom and to experiencing it however you like. It is not my intent to tell you how you should think. How am I feeling about this team through 18 games? This team has gotten one abbreviated start from its best starter, Jus...2024See more articles Justin Steele injury report -
• Diamondbacks 12, Cubs 11: This space intentionally left blankPhoto by Norm Hall/Getty Images I can’t even... Whatever that game was, I did not like it one bit. Well, perhaps that’s too harsh. The Cubs scored a lot of runs! They got a key grand slam from Ian Happ! They were one out away from victory... Nope. Sorry. Going back to “did not like it one bit.” The Diamondbacks beat the Cubs 12-11 in 11 innings Tuesday night in Arizona, and while we can fi...2024See more articles Ian Happ injury status -

I was watching this game and thinking what a great time it has been to be a Cubs fan over these last 10 years. Even before the Cubs pulled off this win, just seeing this team playing really good baseball yet again. It’s really been fun to watch.

Their record is 80, in 1954, but they went 5-6 in those games. The Cubs scored 77 in 1929 (7-4), 74 in 2019 (3-8) and 71 in 19...2024Click for news about Chicago Cubs injury report -
• Cubs 9, Rockies 8: Sweep!Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs fought off the weather and a Rockies rally to complete the three-game sweep. The weather outside was frightful. And, for a while, so was the Cubs’ bullpen. But in the end, the Cubs hung on Wednesday night for a 9-8 win over the Rockies, their fourth straight victory. It rained — and snowed — most of the day in Chicago and the start of the game w...2024See also Luke Little injury update

• 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. Sure, it was only a five-game Canadian losing streak (three in 2014, the first ...2022Click for news about Blue Jays

With one swing of the bat, Christopher Morel let the Padres know that Monday’s game wasn’t going to define this series.
