• 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 72

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images It was not pretty, but the Cubs took care of business with a 3-2 win. Had these last 13 games occurred in a different order, say reversed, I’m not sure that the Cubs wouldn’t have lost seven or even more. The Cubs didn’t play great during this stretch. To be clear, they didn’t play badly either. I’ve got the score over 13 games at 47-36 combined. Using...2025

David Banks-Imagn Images The offense stays stalled, but pitching carries the Cubs to a 2-1 win. Yet again, the Cubs offense struggled. For the first time this year, this team is not really rising to challenges. They are struggling day after day. But, they won again Saturday. One can simultaneously accept the win and that they did just enough while also recognizing that this team just isn’...2025

Matt Marton-Imagn Images The Cubs offense comes up empty in a 2-1 loss to the Pirates. Last things first, the Cubs lost in extra innings, dropping their record in such games to 3-5. On a Saturday morning ahead of another day game, I won’t waste a lot of words on my thoughts on ghost baserunners. Across every team who entered play Friday night at .500 or better, teams were 56-55 in extra i...2025

Friday will bring another new and interesting strategy. This will be the first time this year that the Cub starters have back-to-back starts each on four days rest. Modern pitchers don’t thro...2025

For the first seven games of this road trip, the Cubs were pretty good at not getting behind on pitching. Last night, going after the win in the eighth game, they got behind. So we knew going into this game that if Ben Brown didn’t start strong, they might have some trouble. He...2025
