• Why are the Cubs not stealing bases this year?

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Getty Images The team is dead last in MLB in steals. In 2023, the Cubs were one of the better base-stealing teams in MLB. They stole 140 bases, which ranked eighth overall, and were caught only 34 times, for a stolen-base percentage of 80.5 percent. That’s quite good! Nico Hoerner stole 43 bases, fourth-most in the NL, while being caught just seven times, a SB percent...2024

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 19

David 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 ...2024

• Cubs roster moves: Jameson Taillon, Patrick Wisdom activated from injured list

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Getty Images Hayden Wesneski and Miles Mastrobuoni were returned to Iowa. Even with today’s rainout, the Cubs announced two roster moves, about an hour after the postponement. First, the Cubs activated Jameson Taillon from the injured list. He was going to start Thursday night’s game. It’s not yet clear whether he’ll start Friday afternoon instead. Taillon missed all ...2024

Peter 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...2024

• 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...2024

You get warmer weather and you aren’t yet settled in. So that part is fine. But playing a good young team fresh off of their first World Series win was less than ideal.

Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images This was not a good way to start the 2024 season. I have a request. Next time the Cubs open a season — a year or so from now — could we have a little less controversy and injury? The Cubs lost Game 1 of the 2024 season to the Rangers 4-3 in 10 innings, and also have likely lost ace Justin Steele to the injured list, though for how long is not yet certain....2024

Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports With no video or photos from this game, what you get is descriptions. It is very odd, in the year 2024, to not have any audio or video live coverage of a Major League Baseball game. Yes, even in Spring Training, where the Cubs do cover nearly every game, and all those at home. But this one, about 10 miles north of the Cubs’ Sloan Park complex, had none. So I ca...2024
