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.

Hey, if Javier Baez is going to hit 420-foot bombs every time he accidentally destroys a bathroom, then so be it. During Monday night's 5-1 Cubs win, Baez was pretty frustrated after his first two at bats against Patrick Corbin. The lefty struck out Baez with a 3-2 slider in the first inning, when...
So, normally when these things happen it's more of a half-assed prediction by a broadcaster. But no, not Jim Deshaies, who perfectly nailed his prediction of Kris Bryant's two-run home run in the eighth inning of Monday's 5-1 Cubs win. Bryant's been back from the DL since the start of September and...
Kyle Schwarber has missed the last six games for the Cubs and has only started one of the last 10, after tweaking his back sliding into third base against the Brewers on Sept. 5. He won't playing in the next three games either because the Cubs decided to keep him back in Chicago, as the team starts...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know the Willson Contreras thing already, but the dumbest base running mistake during Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Reds by the Cubs was Daniel Murphy's slow ass getting thrown out at second base to end the eighth inning. So, the offense hadn't done anything at all against Luis...
Willson Contreras hasn't had the season most fans thought he would after carrying the Cubs through a few months last year. He hasn't hit a home run since Aug. 1, and on Sunday he obviously thought he broke that drought after driving a ball to deep center field. Problem was that Contreras didn't...
The Cubs had a whole bunch of injuries suddenly pop up all at once in September, but it looks like they may finally be getting some good news. After Pedro Strop was ruled out for the regular season with a left hamstring strain, the Cubs were left with Dillon Maples, Jaime Garcia and Jorge de la...
Back on Aug. 31, we saw Ian Happ and Javier Baez celebrate a home run with a waffle maker in the Cubs dugout against the Philadelphia Phillies. Apparently that waffle maker was lost or whatever happened to it the Cubs no longer had it after their series at Milwaukee in the beginning of September....
Pedro Strop has been ruled out for the rest of the regular season after an MRI revealed a hamstring strain that he suffered during Thursday's 4-3 Cubs win over the Nationals. Strop strained his hamstring running down the first base line in the 10th inning, as Joe Maddon left him in with the bases...
This is on Joe Maddon. I'm a huge Maddon guy, but his moves on Thursday were perplexing and that included leaving Pedro Strop in to hit in the top of the 10th inning with the bases loaded. The Cubs grabbed the lead after Javier Baez perfectly placed a bunt to the right side of the infield for the...
The Cubs have seen their division lead dwindle down to one game after scoring six runs in their series loss against the Brewers. Joe Maddon is looking for anything to spark the offense, so he's going back to what's worked before. Anthony Rizzo is back in the leadoff spot. Not only that, but for...
The Cubs are going to fly to Washington D.C. following Wednesday night's game against the Milwaukee Brewers for a make up game and because they're playing at 4 p.m. EST and flying back to Chicago the same night, the team has changed Friday's game time against the Cincinnati Reds. Originally...
A year ago the Cubs and fans wanted no part of Justin Wilson on the playoff roster after trading for him in July from the Detroit Tigers to help solidify the bullpen. Now, Wilson is the third maybe the second most trusted reliever coming out of the pen down the stretch? It is wild how one year can...
