Matt Mervis is showing no signs of slowing down at Triple-A with the Iowa Cubs and as each day passes fans continue to wonder when the 25-year-old is finally going to be called up to the big leagues. The left-handed hitting first baseman was already having a good season through the first couple of...
There are so many awesome prospects for the Chicago Cubs this year up and down their minor league system, but one of the most underrated storylines may be the continued development and so far, strong come back from injuries for Miguel Amaya. The 24-year-old is off to an incredible start at Double-A...
The Chicago Cubs have never thrown a perfect game in their entire franchise history and on Friday left-handed starting pitcher Drew Smyly looked destined to become the first to accomplish that feat. He retired the first 21 Los Angeles Dodgers in a row, but then David Peralta broke up the perfect...
I'll keep saying this as I continue to watch more minor league baseball this season, it is awesome that you have access to so many minor league games through MLB TV. But also, fuck off with the ridiculous blackout rules that continue to cut access to baseball fans across the country. Riley...
It's April 21, and I wasn't really expecting the Chicago Cubs to call up Matt Mervis until at least May, but after reading the latest in The Athletic, it sure does sound like the team has no plans to call up the first baseman anytime soon. If you missed it by the way, Mervis hit his fourth home run...
Oh baby! OK maybe this isn't the call up Chicago Cubs were hoping for, but after Thursday night's debacle in the ninth inning, you love to see that there's potentially a new closer in the bullpen now. Javier Assad pitched three innings in a spot start against the Los Angeles Dodgers last night,...
Javier Assad made a spot start for the injured Jameson Taillon and after allowing two solo home runs in three innings the Chicago Cubs bullpen shut down the Los Angeles Dodgers for the next five innings. Then, in a 2-2 game, Michael Fulmer came in to pitch the ninth inning and he once again looked...
Matt Mervis did it again folks and at this point it's getting much more annoying that he keeps destroying Triple-A pitching instead of mashing with the Chicago Cubs. Mervis flew out to the warning track in his second at bat on Thursday night in Buffalo, but he got every bit of a hanging breaking...
Well, I've been talking about the Chicago Cubs good pitching depth since spring training and now it's going to be put to the test heading into the fourth week of the regular season as Jameson Taillon has been placed on the 15-day injured list. The veteran right-hander was scheduled to start the...
The Chicago Cubs finished off their West Coast road trip at 5-1 after sweeping the Oakland A's on Wednesday with a 12-2 win. The Cubs outscored the A's 26-3 and have now won 10 of their last 13 games to improve to 11-6 this season. OK, now onto the three amazing stats for the Cubs because they are...
Chicago Cubs pitching prospect Cade Horton has only made two starts in his minor league career, but the 2022 first round pick is already showing that he is ready to move up in the Cubs farm system. The 21-year-old righty did not pitch last year after the Cubs picked him with the seventh overall...
I kid because I love and did you know that Eric Hosmer is hitting .400 in his last five at-bats? Trade value sky rocketing right now. Give Jed Hoyer a call, folks! So, the Cubs had a six-game road trip out to California and they took care of business against the Los Angeles Dodgers, winning two of...
