• Red Sox 17, Cubs 0: Flush this one and move onBob DeChiara-USA TODAY Sports I watched this game so you didn’t have to. Remember when I wrote these words in the recap to Friday’s game? Friends, the Chicago Cubs are a very good baseball team I’m not going back on those words but oh my goodness, the Cubs did not look like a very good baseball team in a blowout 17-0 loss to the Red Sox Saturday afternoon at Fenway Park. The Red Sox scored...2024Check it out Red Sox rumors -
• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 26Photo by Billie Weiss/Boston Red Sox/Getty Images Cubs rookies carry the load in 7-1 win for their fourth straight. I’m ready to combine my repetitive thoughts from last year and this year into one thought. Last year, I implored the Cubs to “get greedy.” Any they climbed into contention by doing just that. This year, I’ve applauded them for being relentless on several occasions. Right now,...2024Visit the page Mike Tauchman headline news -
• Cubs 7, Red Sox 1: Shōta Imanaga leads another strong team effortPhoto by Maddie Meyer/Getty Images The Cubs got contributions up and down the lineup and won the opener in Boston. The Cubs began their Fenway Park series having played okay, but not great, on the road and having to face a pitcher who’d been one of the best in baseball over the season’s first few weeks. No matter: The Cubs have a pitcher of their own like that, Shōta Imanaga, and despite m...2024Continue with Red Sox breaking news -

• 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 22Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs were tripped up by the Marlins and so, settle for a weekend split. I know I’m having a selective memory problem, but I just feel like every year there is some disappointment involving games with the Marlins. Some of them are obvious. The recent post season loss. The 2003 soul-crushing NLCS loss. Heck, go all the way back to 1997 and they were a...2024Click for news about Adbert Alzolay

• Cubs 6, Tigers 4: The never-quit Cubs pull one outRick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports After a devastating grand slam tied things up, the Cubs got to work and came out on top.
