The speculation started back earlier in the season when Bob Nightengale reported in USA Today that Joe Maddon's job might be in jeopardy if the Cubs had an early exit in the playoffs. They did, failing to wrap up the division in September, losing the tie-breaker to the Brewers and then losing to...
Addison Russell has been suspended 40 games. MLB announced the decision after concluding its investigation of domestic violence allegations toward Russell. Here's their statement. https://twitter.com/sahadevsharma/status/1047581679420956673 The suspension goes back to Sept. 21, when Russell was...
The Cubs made a few trades during the season to provide some help to the pitching staff and while Cole Hamels was more than great filling in for Yu Darvish, this team might not have gone as far as it did without Jesse Chavez. The 35-year-old right-hander made 32 appearances for the Cubs after he...
Jon Lester didn't always have his best stuff in 2018, but he pitched his heart out almost every time this year for the Cubs. That included Tuesday night in the Wild Card Game, when Lester tossed six innings, while allowing only one run in what ended up as a 2-1 loss to the Rockies in 13 innings....
The Cubs had a chance to avoid Game 163, but they lost on Saturday 2-1 to the Cardinals. Then, in their tie-breaker against the Brewers to avoid the Wild Card Game. the Cubs scored one run in a 3-1 loss on Monday. On Tuesday night, with a chance to still advance to the NLDS the Cubs put up one...
Brewers fans are always called out for not going to Miller Park and letting Cubs fans invade Milwaukee and almost every time they say the same thing: Cubs fans are the worst, that's why we don't go, we can't stand them. And by no means will I say that's false, Cubs fans, just like all other fan...
As expected Joe Maddon has loaded up on right-handed hitters for tonight's Wild Card Game against Kyle Freeland and the Rockies. https://twitter.com/Cubs/status/1047215956907491328 Anthony Rizzo and Daniel Murphy are the only left-handed hitters for the Cubs in the lineup. Freeland has been amazing...
Maybe it's not that big of a surprise, but the big news from today's 25-man roster for the Cubs is that right-handed reliever Carl Edwards Jr. has been left off. Edwards was awful in September and his velocity was down in his last outing. He apparently experienced some discomfort in his forearm....
The Cubs will be hosting the Rockies in the Wild Card Game tonight, with first pitch scheduled for 7:05 p.m. Here is the 25-man roster for tonight's game from the Cubs. https://twitter.com/Cubs/status/1047148023917305857 The Cubs are going with 14 position players and 11 pitchers. The big news is...
After Monday's tie breakers to decide the NL West and Central division champions, the Wild Card Game was also set. It'll be the Cubs hosting the Rockies at Wrigley Field at 7 p.m. on ESPN. Here's what we know about the game. Jon Lester will start for the Cubs, while Kyle Freeland will start for the...
This is why you never want to play in a sudden death type of game. And yeah the Cubs are still in the playoffs with the Wild Card Game Tuesday night, but randomness is the biggest and most dangerous aspect in games during October. Good players can be bad and bad players can be great. That's what...
At the end of the day, the Brewers were better. Christian Yelich had an unreal run in the second half and came up big in Game 163, so did Milwaukee's bullpen. Jose Quintana pitched five innings for the Cubs and gave up one run, while Jhoulys Chacin went 5.2 innings and also only gave up only one...
