Meanwhile, his teammates put together a 13-hit attack, including a home run from All-Star snub (at least for now) Seiya Suzuki, and shut out the rival Cardinals 11-0, ta...2025

    Joe Puetz-Imagn Images That was ugly. The question of who’s going to go out of the Cubs rotation when Shōta Imanaga returns was probably answered Monday evening in St. Louis. Ben Brown threw three very good innings and then got pounded, serving up four two-run homers and the Cubs were blown out 8-2 in their first 2025 meeting with their arch-rivals. Brown and Matthew Liberatore matched zer...2025

    David Banks-Imagn Images There’s something else that this signing would do for the Cubs. With Kyle Tucker off to a great start with the Cubs, the chorus of voices urging Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts to open up the team wallet and sign Tucker to an extension before he hits free agency has gotten louder. While there’s no question about Tucker’s abilities on the field — he’s hitting the way he ...2025
