With a journalism degree from Eastern Illinois University and a decade of Cubs reporting, my work has appeared on 670 The Score, ESPN 1000, and the Pinwheels and Ivy Podcast. I cover Cubs news and analysis for Sports Mockery, including roster moves, game breakdowns, and prospect development.

Sure, Marcus Stroman was brutal in his last seven or so starts before he ended up on the injured list, but there's no denying that if he can come back healthy later in September then he can strengthen the Cubs starting rotation. The latest is certainly an encouraging update on Stroman, who returned...
I still don't understand why Alexander Canario was promoted to the major leagues only to be stashed away on the bench, but hopefully the 23-year-old prospect gets into a game here soon. Besides him, there are a handful of Cubs prospects who can still make their MLB debut in 2023 and hopefully get...
Justin Steele continues to beef up his candidacy for National League Cy Young by pitching shutout baseball against playoff contenders. On Monday, the left-handed starting pitcher set a new career-high with 12 strikeouts in eight shutout innings against the San Francisco Giants, leading the Cubs to...
I know that when the Chicago Cubs signed Jameson Taillon, the reaction was almost split. Maybe it leaned on the negative portion a bit. I was on the other side, thinking the veteran righty could be a workhorse in the rotation, providing some much-needed stability on the pitching staff. We're...
The Chicago White Sox lost 3-2 on Sunday, getting swept at home by the Detroit Tigers. That came right after they were shutout 10-0 Saturday night. Safe to say that fans have tuned the team out this summer and with no Luis Robert Jr. in the lineup this weekend, Steve Stone and Jason Benetti talking...
Through the first couple months of the 2023 season, the bullpen was the Achilles heel for the Chicago Cubs, who entered June with a record of 24-31, last place in the NL Central Division. Thanks to several pitchers stepping up, the Cubs have the fifth-best bullpen ERA since June 1, at 3.47....
Back in spring training, when Hayden Wesneski was winning the fifth starter job, there were times when the right-handed pitcher was reaching back and lighting up the radar gun with a high-90s fastball. The Chicago Cubs know Wesneski has that in his arsenal, but the rookie hasn't shown it...
While it's not official as of Friday night, it does appear as though the Chicago Cubs are ready to welcome veteran reliever Brad Boxberger back to the bullpen. The signs were already pointing to his comeback, as Boxberger pitched in back-to-back games during his rehab assignment with the Iowa Cubs...
Back in June the Chicago Cubs signed veteran pitcher Shane Greene to a minor league contract and now they're calling up the 34-year-old righty to start one of the games against the Cincinnati Reds during Friday's double header. ESPN's Jesse Rogers confirmed the news on Thursday....
Chicago White Sox are sick and tired of Jerry Reinsdorf running their favorite baseball team and they're making sure he knows they want him out. During Friday night's game at Guaranteed Rate Field, fans displayed a big banner in the stands that read, "“42 years of ownership, 7 playoff appearances,"...
Yes, it's true, Adbert Alzolay hasn't been as sharp lately and on Friday night he blew his second straight save opportunity, leading a 3-2 Reds win. However, the Cubs lost the nightcap of their double header in Cincinnati well before the ninth inning. The Reds had rookie righty Lyon Richardson on...
The Chicago Cubs have lost one series since the All-Star break. They've dug themselves out of last place in the NL Central and are currently a couple games behind the Milwaukee Brewers, while also sitting firmly in the second Wild Card spot. Through all the bitching and complaining that I and many...
