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.

Thanks to an unbelievable week by the starting rotation, much of the struggles on offense were swept under the rug for the Chicago Cubs. Well, there's no more hiding how unbelievably bad the offense has been now. For the ninth straight game the Cubs failed to score more than three runs, as the St....
Jose Quintana got into a little trouble in the first inning against the St. Louis Cardinals, but Kyle Schwarber bailed him out by throwing out Matt Carpenter at the plate, saving a run. https://twitter.com/PinwheelsIvyPod/status/992564748414869504 Nice play by Willson Contreras too at the plate.
It's been a brutal season for Ian Happ, who had so much promise coming out of spring training, getting praise from Theo Epstein and winning the leadoff job for the Chicago Cubs. A month in and the Cubs could be looking to trade for someone to take over his roster spot. Bruce Levine is using Happ's...
The Chicago White Sox played a quick two-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals and Mark Buehrle was in attendance. Even if you're not a White Sox fan, how can you not like Buehrle. He pretty much accomplished everything you can as a starting pitcher, having a perfect game, no-hitter, multiple...
There's no hiding it. Yu Darvish hasn't been very good through his first six starts with the Chicago Cubs. On Wednesday he couldn't get through the fifth inning for the fourth time already this year. If only Darvish could pitch against the Milwaukee Brewers every time. Anyway, it's pretty obvious...
The good news here is that Yoan Moncada left Wednesday's Chicago White Sox game without any assistance, but it is at least a little concerning. Moncada slid awkwardly into third base in the eighth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals and after talking with the White Sox trainer he came out. It's...
I think the most emotion Kyle Hendricks has ever shown on the mound was a fist pump during the 2016 World Series run and one time he dropped an f-bomb in St. Louis after his no-hitter (or perfect game?) was broken up. So yeah, you really have to be awful as an umpire to get a reaction from...
I always loved Jake Arrieta's attitude when he was with the Chicago Cubs. He may not have had the best stuff, but he was definitely the most confident pitcher on the mound. He was a beast and now Arrieta's saying why he didn't come back to Chicago. When it came to giving a new contract to a...
Anthony Rizzo baby! Joe Maddon put Rizzo back in the leadoff spot, hoping to kick-start the offense and the Chicago Cubs first baseman and well when the wind is howling out at Wrigley Field who wouldn't want to bat right away. Rizzo hit a leadoff home run on the very first pitch he saw on Tuesday....
There are many people who show their love for a team by getting tattoos and some can turn out looking amazing. Then, you have people like Bryant Torres of Elgin. This dude gave everyone a good laugh with an incredible mugshot that features not one, but two Chicago Blackhawks inspired tattoos,...
Joe Maddon warned everyone, so this shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, but at the same time what a lovely surprise he's giving Chicago Cubs fans, as the best leadoff hitter in MLB history is back! Albert Almora Jr. is getting the day off, so Anthony Rizzo is leading off....
