    • 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 52
    Photo by Dylan Buell/Getty Images The Cubs stumble early again and come up short on a comeback in a 6-4 loss. It’s been years since I was anywhere close to a “watch 162 games closely” person. There definitely was a point in life where if at all possible I was either watching or listening. A combination of parenting and adulting along with a dose of really bad Cubs baseball pushed me to so...2025

    Photo by Jeff Dean/Getty Images PCA keys a come-from-behind 13-6 win. For a minute there, you thought the stories would be the bad first inning for Matthew Boyd and the continuing implosion of Julian Merryweather. These aren’t those Cubs. This team has so much fight in it and so a 6-2 early deficit became a 13-6 win. Eleven unanswered runs over the game’s final three innings. I’ll mention...2025

    • 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 50
    Photo by Jared Lennon/Getty Images A 2-1 win takes the game and gives the Cubs a series win in Miami. It was a series of contradictions. Monday night, the Cubs lost the opener of the series. The Cubs have excelled in series openers this year. They lost in large part because early, middle and late game, the pitching staff failed. The offense had a good night, scoring seven, but lost. This ...2025

    • 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 49
    Photo by Carmen Mandato/Getty Images The offense explodes behind a strong performance from Jameson Taillon. In almost all instances, the “must win” label is hyperbole in baseball. That’s largely the stuff of football where a game or two decides everything. The last couple of years, a few blown games were the difference between in and out of the playoffs. So it’s hard to split the hairs. Th...2025

    Photo by Megan Briggs/Getty Images Some good, a lot of bad in the Cubs 8-7 loss in Miami. By my count, this is the first time I’ve picked a picture that included new third base coach Quintin Berry. Former third base coach Willie Harris was particularly expressive and photogenic over at third in years gone by and when a photographer captured one of those, I liked to grab those photos. Thi...2025

    Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images A 6-2 win and a sweep of the White Sox made for a good Sunday. It feels fitting for Pete Crow-Armstrong to be right in the middle of the defining inning of this game. He scored two of the first three runs in the game. He had a hand in the other scoring, though he doesn’t get an RBI for his aggressive baserunning and the opportunity (however i...2025

    Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images The Cubs offense was ineffective in a 3-1 loss. Worried is the wrong word. But the offensive malaise is lingering a bit longer than I expected. The Cubs have scored 27 runs over their last eight games. I don’t think there is any question that the injury to Ian Happ is part of the equation. The tailing off of Kyle Tucker is a piece of it. It’...2025

    Photo by Geoff Stellfox/Getty Images The anatomy of a comeback — the Cubs win 5-4. As is the usual case with a come-from-behind win, we’re going to talk a lot about WPA. The game was tied 2-2 in the seventh when Julian Merryweather took the mound. Julian didn’t have it. His fastball is down and he just isn’t effective at this point. This comeback story starts after Merryweather had allowed...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. So it is at least a passing thought that there is something with Sundays. It sure w...2025

    Photo by John Fisher/Getty Images The homers just keep coming in a 6-2 win over the Brewers. The Cubs had been winning more frequently against right-handed starters than left. Jose Quintana had only allowed one homer. He had won all of his starts this year. And none of those things are true any longer. The Cubs took him deep three times in rapid succession, scoring six runs in all against ...2025

Friday night in Milwaukee, the Cubs scored two in the first to set the tone early, then lowered the boom with a seven-run second, featuring a Michael Busch grand slam. For those of you who aren’t longtime WPA guys, a quick summation. When the game gets lopsided early and stays that way th...2025

It was what you hoped would happen and happen it did. After being mowed down the first time through the order, the Cubs offens...2025

I mean no disrespect to the Twins, but when I was looking into them ahead of this series, I saw a team that has feasted on bad teams with an unusual fervor.

    Gregory Fisher-Imagn Images A 6-5 win for the Cubs. I imagine the words “because baseball” will be typed and read hundreds of times after this one. A rookie pitcher, a formidable opponent, a three game losing streak. Not the recipe for a win. Then Ian Happ gets a night off. Pete Crow-Armstrong in the leadoff spot? Justin Turner fifth?

The Cubs continue to excel in the first game of each series, particularly at Wrigley Field. I still suspect most of this is random sequencing.
