• What should the Cubs do with Ryan Pressly?

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images The Cubs reliever had a really, really bad game Tuesday. I don’t have to rehash how bad Ryan Pressly’s outing was Tuesday night at Wrigley Field in the 11th inning against the Giants. You probably saw it, or if you didn’t, you can read the boxscore line. After a rough start this year, Pressly had put together 10 straight scoreless appearances and record...2025

Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images A fan fell out of the stands at PNC Park during the game. The Cubs lost to the Pirates 4-3 Wednesday evening in Pittsburgh. I’ll get to the details of the game in a bit. Unfortunately, the lead story from Wednesday evening at PNC Park was the fall of a fan from the stands onto the warning track during the seventh inning. Here’s what happened (Bluesky link): ...2025

• 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
