• 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

• 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 19

David Frerker-Imagn Images The Cubs’ sloppy play leads to a 10-4 loss. Monday night’s game has an awful lot to unpack. If you are an impulsive reactor, I’d say today is a day to take a deep breath. 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. The Cubs were leadi...2025

• Padres 10, Cubs 4: Another bullpen meltdown

Photo by Matt Thomas/San Diego Padres/Getty Images Things were going along fine, then... BOOM. Another homer by Michael Busch? Check. Another three-hit game from Pete Crow-Armstrong? Check. Solid starting pitching from Jameson Taillon? Check. Those things all went right Monday night in San Diego. Unfortunately, because of rough outings from three different Cubs relievers, that did not lead...2025

Fernando Tatis Jr. | Photo by Matt Thomas/San Diego Padres/Getty Images San Diego comes back from two-run deficit to stay perfect at Petco Park Manny Machado worked an 11-pitch walk with one out in the bottom of the sixth inning. The walk resulted in Chicago Cubs Manager Craig Counsell taking starting pitcher Jameson Taillon out of the game with his team leading, 3-1. By the time the innin...2025

Two of the Cubs’ home run heroes from Saturday night, Carson Kelly and Michael Busch | Kiyoshi Mio-Imagn Images It took a while, but the Cubs brought out the big bats at Dodger Stadium Saturday evening. The Cubs and Dodgers looked like they would be locked in a classic pitcher’s duel for the first five innings of this game. Ben Brown and Roki Sasaki were both dealing, and both teams flashe...2025

• Rangers 6, Cubs 2: Sometimes it’s just not your day

Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images The Cubs offense got shut down on a very cold afternoon. Dire weather forecasts of all-day rain made it seem very unlikely, early this morning, that this game would be played. But the rain fell mostly south of the city — it just sprinkled a couple of times at the ol’ ballyard — and so the Cubs and Rangers were able to complete their three-game series...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

Julian Merryweather, No. 66 in your program, likely has a spot in the bullpen due to his recent Cub history as a leverage reliever. Indeed Merryweather emerged as such while a Cub — he had seen some action before, but wasn’t as regularly depended on by the Blue Jays. His three years a...2025

2025
"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."

2021
"Nate Pearson really doesn’t matter."

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

2019
"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."
