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.

Big time prospect news this week for the Chicago Cubs, as they called up Miguel Amaya, the team's top catcher in their minor league system, and then Matt Mervis was promoted on Friday. Both of those players are in today's lineup against the Miami Marlins. Exciting stuff for sure, but the Cubs also...
The news broke while the Chicago Cubs were playing their series finale against the Washington Nationals on Thursday and the team made it official on Friday. Left-handed hitting prospect Matt Mervis has been promoted to the majors and he will be making his MLB debut at Wrigley Field against the...
About damn time. The Chicago Cubs are calling up first base prospect Matt Mervis. According to ESPN's Jeff Passan, Mervis will join the Cubs in Chicago for the start of their weekend series against the Miami Marlins. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/1654180608891932673 Better late than never....
It looked like the Chicago Cubs were going to use another pitcher for Thursday's series finale against the Washington Nationals to fill in for Jameson Taillon, but the 31-year-old is coming back off the injured list after all. Following another one-run loss on the road trip, manager David Ross told...
Well, after being out of the starting lineup following Monday's game, it sure did seem like this would ultimately be the end result for veteran catcher Yan Gomes. Prior to Wednesday's game against the Washington Nationals, the Cuba placed Gomes on the seven-day concussion injured list. Right-handed...
The Chicago Cubs made their first major cut of the regular season last week, when catcher Luis Torrens was designated for assignment and now he has been traded to the Baltimore Orioles. Baltimore saw something they really liked in the 26-year-old catcher and didn't want to see any one else get...
The Chicago White Sox were thrilled when the Cubs passed on shortstop Colson Montgomery in the 2021 MLB Draft. The Cubs selected left-handed starting pitcher Jordan Wicks, leaving Montgomery up for grabs on the very next pick. Montgomery was selected with the 22nd overall pick and after his first...
Yes, I'm getting way ahead of myself here, but it is starting to look like the Chicago Cubs got a steal in last year's draft when they picked Haydn McGeary in the 15th round. D1, D2, so far it has not mattered. All this guy does is hit baseballs, hit them hard and hit them very far. The hype train...
I really want to defend David Ross and some of the moves he's made this season are starting to make me think it's a cry for help, basically signaling to the front office that it's time to call up some players, but then he also makes other decisions that don't make any sense no matter how you look...
The Chicago Cubs have been without right-handed starting pitcher Jameson Taillon for a couple weeks and the team will be using a third pitcher to fill in for him in the starting rotation this week. Taillon, 31, was placed on the 15-day injured list on April 20, with a left groin strain. It was a...
All right, so this turned out to be a win-win for everyone except left-handed pitcher Ryan Borucki, who days after getting called up from Triple-A has been designated for assignment to make room for the team's top catching prospect Miguel Amaya. The Cubs are still evaluating Yan Gomes, who was...
Back in December, the Chicago Cubs signed left-handed pitcher Roenis Elías and I still think it was a solid pick up for the organization. However, the 34-year-old is now off to Korea after beginning the 2023 season with the Iowa Cubs in Triple-A. This actually speaks to the strength in the depth...
