• Chicago Cubs Score and Recap (8/16/25): Cubs 3, Pirates 1 – Shōta Shines in W
The Cubs and Pirates played the second game of their series at a hot and overcast Wrigley Field Saturday afternoon. Chicago did not squander a great starting pitching performance in this one, producing just enough offense to grab a win. Tommy Pham jumped on Shōta Imanaga‘s only big mistake to hit a long solo home … The post Chicago Cubs Score and Recap (8/16/25): Cubs 3, Pirates 1 R...2025

• Seth Lugo signing shows the Royals are committed to contending

Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images Retaining your good players, what a concept! Seth Lugo was near the top of all “top trade candidates” articles last week. There was speculation he might just walk into the opposing dugout after his start against the Cubs at Wrigley Field last week. Sure, there were some reports that the Royals had some interest in keeping Lugo long-term. But surely that w...2025

• Royals 12, Cubs 4: This space intentionally left blank

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images That was... ugly. The Royals hit four home runs Monday and crushed the Cubs 12-4 at Wrigley Field. I lead this recap with that because of this, from BCB’s JohnW53: The Royals went into this game having hit 77 home runs, second fewest of all teams. Only the Pirates had hit fewer, 66. This was just their second game with four. They hit more in only one g...2025

• Royals Rumblings - News for July 22, 2025

Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images Wrigley Field was very friendly. Seiya Suzuki hit a foul ball into his beans last night, then struck out on a pitch clock violation. Pete Grathoff has more. Royals catcher Salvador Perez said Suzuki never communicated with Vondrak. “I think the ball hit him somewhere and he never called timeout. That’s why he confused the umpire,” Perez said. “And I ...2025

• Three up, three down: An update on the Cubs, July 21 edition

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images It was a short week, but we’ve still got some Cubs ups and downs to discuss. With last week’s All-Star break, this update on the Cubs covers just three games, the series against the Red Sox over the weekend. Still, there’s good and bad to discuss. Three up Colin Rea continues to impress While the Cubs certainly need at least one starting pitc...2025

• 2025 Cubs midseason grades

Photo by Peter Joneleit/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Here are my assessments of Cubs player performances so far this year. As befits a first-place team, most of them are pretty good. The Cubs really couldn’t have done much better so far this year. They have three All-Stars, two of them starting players. They’re in first place in the NL Central, though by just one game, and have had une...2025

• Three up, three down: An update on the Cubs, July 14 edition

Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images The Cubs enter the All-Star break on a high note. As most of you know, I usually write an article during the All-Star break giving Cubs players midseason grades. That article will appear here tomorrow. In the meantime, here’s who was hot and not for the Cubs over the past week, when they went 3-3 on a road trip to Minnesota and New York. Three up Shōta Ima...2025

• Cardinals 8, Cubs 6: Well, that was ugly, despite another great game from Michael Busch

Photo by Geoff Stellfox/Getty Images A stirring comeback went for naught when the Cubs bullpen blew up in the eighth. The Cubs bullpen has been so good this year that having an inning like the one Brad Keller had in the eighth inning of the Cubs’ 8-6 loss to the Cardinals is, frankly, shocking. It turned on one play in that inning, and I’ll get to that, but first things first. The Drew Pom...2025

• 2025 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 77

Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images A little trouble in paradise: The Cubs lose 14-6. A little while back, I dropped my Cubs DEFCON to 4. I saw warning signs that suggested a slump might be coming. If you aren’t following me every day, I’m not in possession of any magic formula or inside info. The last time I saw the signs, I was dead wrong and they turned it on a dime and started dominating ag...2025
