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.

Pretty sure that every single Cubs fan is rooting for Ben Zobrist to have a storybook ending in 2019. Yet, you can't argue that his comeback attempt hasn't been the least bit odd. The Cubs have done everything possible to accommodate him. Zobrist only played in 12 minor league games in August and...
The White Sox placed veteran outfielder Jon Jay on the injured list, so is it finally time for a Luis Robert call up?!?!!?! No. The White Sox have instead called up Ryan Cordell from Triple-A. https://twitter.com/whitesox/status/1167486783992606720 In 81 games with the White Sox this season,...
In 2018, Luis Robert was limited to only 50 minor league games because of injuries, so the White Sox sent the prospect to get additional playing time against more experienced competition in the Arizona Fall League. He was still coming back from a thumb injury that factored into Robert not hitting a...
I was so excited that Jason Heyward was no longer leading off that I completely missed that not only is Anthony Rizzo still out because of his back, but Kris Bryant is getting Friday off too against the Brewers. Heyward isn't in the lineup at all, as Ian Happ gets the start in center and will bat...
Victor Caratini did it again! Filling in for Anthony Rizzo on Thursday night, Caratini tied the game in the second with a solo blast and then gave the Cubs a 4-1 lead with a three-run bomb in the seventh. https://twitter.com/Cubs/status/1167239902712532993 That's now nine home runs for Caratini...
Victor Caratini got all of this one, blasting a solo home run to right field off Jacob deGrom to tie Thursday's game in the second inning. Look at this beauty. https://twitter.com/Cubs/status/1167219527685484545 All the hang time. https://twitter.com/MLBBarrelAlert/status/1167219293760737280...
This has happened at least three times throughout the 2019 season. Addison Russell wasn't just playing poorly in June, but he also had a hand injury that pretty much kept him unavailable for a week. Yet, he was still taking a spot on the 25-man roster. Daniel Descalso had an ankle injury, which led...
The Cubs made several trades in July trying to improve the overall depth of the roster and get the bullpen some help. One move that kind of went under the radar, well the return anyway, was trading Carl Edwards Jr. to the Padres for left-hander Brad Wieck. The 27-year-old lefty has only pitched in...
Just to give an idea of how difficult it's been to pitch at Triple-A in 2019, consider that Iowa Cubs pitcher Matt Swarmer has a 5.66 ERA in 25 starts and 26 overall appearances. That 5.66 ERA ranks 13th best in the Pacific Coast League, which makes Colin Rea's 2019 season that much more...
So, USA Today's Bob Nightengale wrote some shit about analytics and that they're not actually useful and combined that with the Cubs trading for Nick Castellanos. My summary doesn't really make sense, but neither does Bob's story. However, at least we did get Castellanos bashing the Players'...
Willson Contreras did more drills on Thursday before the Cubs wrap up their three-game series against the Mets and so far it looks like his rehab from a strained hamstring is going to plan. The Cubs catcher is headed to Iowa and will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A on Friday....
The White Sox lost their second game in a row to the Twins Wednesday night, but José Abreu keeps reaching big milestones in his career. Abreu's first-inning RBI-double that briefly gave the White Sox a lead, also set an all-time franchise record....
