• Minor League Wrap: Jonny Long goes long x2 in Iowa win

Jonathon Long | Photo by Norm Hall/MLB Photos via Getty Images Four home runs power Iowa to victory. Knoxville scores three runs after two were out in the bottom of the ninth for a comeback win. Catcher David Avitia retired. He played six games with Myrtle Beach and three with South Bend this year. His brother Daniel, a right-handed pitcher, is with Mesa but is out for the season with an ...2025

Jonathon Long | Cody Scanlan/The Register / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Iowa scores ten runs in a matinee. South Bend continues to struggle. Recently-signed right-hander Tommy Romero joined the Iowa Cubs today and made his Cubs debut. I really don’t know what’s wrong with South Bend, although I should point out that winning games is probably fourth or fifth on a list of priorities ...2025

If you haven’t been keeping track, the Cubs are now just 1-5 on Sundays. I don’t particularly think it is a getaway day issue. They are 3-3 in midweek series-enders.

Starting out, left-hander Evan Aschenbeck was promoted to South Bend from Myrtle Beach. It was clear that Low-A wasn’t challenging Aschenbeck, so it’s good to see the Cubs make the move sooner rather than later. Right-hander Frankie Scalzo Jr. was promot...2025

One of the byproducts of a stacked early season schedule is that every game has either felt like a playoff game or has been lopsided against the Cubs. A week ago, the Cubs had a laugher in Los Angeles. It was almost two weeks ago that there was a comfortable win at home against the Rangers. The A’...2025

• Cubs roster moves: Matt Shaw and Nate Pearson optioned, Eli Morgan to injured list

Photo by Sean M. Haffey/Getty Images The first of these moves, Shaw being sent down, was not expected. The Cubs gave rookie Matt Shaw the third-base job out of Spring Training. The 2023 first-round pick had hit well at all levels of the minor leagues. Unfortunately, that hasn’t yet translated to MLB performance. In 18 games so far this year and 68 plate appearances, Shaw is batting .172/.2...2025

Recall that this team has played terrific baseball over the first few weeks. The frustrating aspect to the start of this season has been that the losses have been like this.

"Nate Pearson finished up the shutout."

2024
"You know, the Cubs might not make the postseason this year — and despite this 12-0 win over the Pirates they didn’t gain any ground on the Mets and Braves — but we will all have one wonderful, indelible memory to share all winter after Shōta Imanaga, Nate Pearson and Porter Hodge combined on a no-hitter."

2023
"Righty Nate Pearson was called up from Triple-A to take Romano’s spot on the active roster."

2022
"Jeremy Beasley was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo to clear an active roster spot, while Nate Pearson was transferred from the 10-day to the 60-day injured list in a corresponding 40-man move."

"Nate Pearson really doesn’t matter."

2020
"Blue Jays top prospect Nate Pearson will be called up for Wednesday start, per report"

"Along with the return on Matt Shoemaker and the development of Anthony Kay, Trent Thornton, Ryan Borucki and Nate Pearson, the Blue Jays have plenty of options for their 2020 rotation."

2018
"Alonso took the second pitch -- a 103 mph fastball from Blue Jays Number 4 prospect Nate Pearson -- and took it deep to straightaway center with an exit velocity of 110 mph, per Trackman."

2017
"Meanwhile, the stock of Florida junior college hurler Nate Pearson is on the rise after he wowed scouts by hitting triple digits consistently and touching as high as 102 mph."

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.
