    • Cubs 11, Dodgers 10: This team never quits!
    Matt Marton-Imagn Images The Cubs won their second bonkers game of this homestand. The Cubs were behind... and then, suddenly, they weren’t. And then they built a nice lead... and then, blew it and wound up behind in the late innings. Then, just as they did in Friday’s crazy game at Wrigley Field, this Cubs team came back. They forced extra innings and Ian Happ’s 10th-inning single complet...2025

    David Banks-Imagn Images There’s something else that this signing would do for the Cubs. With Kyle Tucker off to a great start with the Cubs, the chorus of voices urging Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts to open up the team wallet and sign Tucker to an extension before he hits free agency has gotten louder. While there’s no question about Tucker’s abilities on the field — he’s hitting the way he ...2025

When I said that I thought this Cubs team would win 91 games, I was thinking of the team that spent the last three days terrorizing the A’s in Sacramento. The facility might have been a minor league one, but the performance was very much a major league team. A very good major league team. This t...2025
