All right, to be fair, most draft picks in baseball are risky. After selecting Matt Shaw with the 13th overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, the Chicago Cubs grabbed right-handed starting pitcher Jaxon Wiggins with the 68th pick in the second round. The Cubs did not have a second round pick of their...
The Chicago Cubs have drafted Maryland shortstop Matt Shaw with the 13th overall pick the 2023 MLB Draft. The right-handed hitting infielder hit 24 home runs and posted a 1.142 OPS in 62 games with Maryland during his junior season in college....
Chicago Cubs manager David Ross has not been with the bullshit this week. On Sunday, Ross wasted little time before arguing with the home plate ump in the series finale against the New York Yankees, getting tossed in the first inning. After receiving his fourth ejection of the season, Ross...

To begin with, we should all be assuming the Cubs are trying to win. At 40-46 and following a split against the Milwaukee Brewers, the Cubs are in a tough spot, trailing the first-place Cincinnati Reds by eight games. But if you look ahead to their schedule after the All-Star break, the Cubs have...
The Chicago Cubs had three players selected to the 2023 MLB All-Star Game in Seattle that will take place next Tuesday, but it's beginning to look like only one north sider will actually be in the midsummer classic. Dansby Swanson and Marcus Stroman were each honored with their second All-Star...
The Chicago Cubs had a pretty exciting Thursday night throughout their minor league system and it was highlighted by the South Bend Cubs pitching a combined no-hitter against the Peoria Chiefs. Michael Arias, who made his second start at Advanced A-Ball with South Bend after dominating low-A with...
In some of the least surprising news for the Chicago White Sox, right-handed reliever Joe Kelly is back on the injured list.
