Last offseason the Chicago Cubs desperately needed to add an impact bat to their lineup and they did by trading for Kyle Tucker. Now, Tucker is a free agent and most likely headed elsewhere after a sputtering second-half to his 2025 season with the Cubs. So, Jed Hoyer is back to square one, needing...
You know, I would love to believe these rumors, buy in to the hype and be as optimistic of a fan as possible, but I've also witnessed how the Chicago Cubs have operated in free agency under Jed Hoyer and the Ricketts. So yeah, the rumors might be growing, but it doesn't make them any more true. But...
There were whispers near the end of the 2025 season that Chicago Cubs World Series champion Kyle Hendricks was going to retire and now Sun-Times reporter Maddie Lee has confirmed the news. Hendricks, who pitched for the Los Angeles Angels in 2025, is calling it a career, and retiring after 12...
Chicago Cubs free agent Justin Turner was a late bloomer, breaking out in the majors until 2014, in his age-29 season and now the veteran hitter is eyeing an 18th season playing in MLB. After a mediocre year with the Cubs in 2025, Turner still believes he has something left in the tank despite his...
The Chicago Cubs had six finalists for gold glove awards with three players ultimately taking home the honors and now the team's identity has been cemented with another recognition of defensive excellence. Leading almost every single major category on defense the Cubs won the 2025 Team Gold Glove...
The Chicago Cubs have officially extended the qualifying offer to free agent outfielder Kyle Tucker as expected. Tucker, 28, is viewed as the No. 1 player in this year's free agent class and at this point of the offseason experts believe he'll be moving on to another team after his one-year stint...
Right-handed pitcher Keegan Thompson became a free agent back in October and after appearing in 104 career games with the Chicago Cubs he has officially left the organization that drafted him out of college. Thompson made his big-league debut back in 2021, when the Cubs were rebuilding, became a...
The Chicago Cubs have extended the qualifying offer to a pair of pending free agents and one comes at a bit of a surprise. All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker was the obvious of the two, but the Cubs also extended the QO to left-handed starting pitcher Shōta Imanaga. A few days ago the Cubs declined to...
Huh, congrats to Kyle Tucker! The outfielder was named a 2025 National League Silver Slugger award winner and by all means keep the honors coming for the Chicago Cubs. However, I'm not entirely sure Tucker deserved the victory. Tucker was fantastic through the first three months of the regular...
Who would have thought that by October many Chicago Cubs fans would be demanding that Craig Counsell start Colin Rea over Shōta Imanaga in the postseason? I certainly wasn't and although it didn't quite work out in Game 5 of the NLDS, Rea did become an unsung hero during the 2025 season. Now, the...
By September, industry speculation suggested Kyle Tucker's regression would bring him into the Chicago Cubs' range in free agency. The 28-year-old outfielder enters free agency as the No. 1 available player and while his 2025 season was underwhelming, current projects remain quite optimistic that...
