• Guardians 6, Cubs 1: Swept outta ClevelandPhoto by Jason Miller/Getty Images This was not the result the Cubs wanted at Progressive Field. In a week where the Cubs had hoped to show they belonged in the NL wild card race, instead they blew a lead and tried to come back in one game, and then the offense disappeared for the rest of the series. The 6-1 loss Wednesday, resulting in a sweep by the Guardians, was thus a microcosm of the...2024See more articles Jameson Taillon news and rumors -

In it, the Cubs made the worst trade in their history and what is arguably the worst trade in major-league history, sending Lou Brock to the Cardinals for Ernie Broglio. To understand why the Cubs made that deal, a little background is necessary. In 1963, the Cubs actually contend...2023See more articles Lou Brock contract rumors -

Stars like Fergie Jenkins, Ron Santo, Glenn Beckert, Bill Hands and Randy Hundley were traded away. Sure, there were still some decent players on the club — Rick Monday, Jose Cardenal and Rick Reuschel — and a solid a...2023Continue with NL East scores -
