Oh boy does this suck. The Cubs were hoping for a better outcome, but unfortunately the update on injured catcher Miguel Amaya is a brutal hit to their roster. Amaya was removed from Saturday's game against the Reds with an oblique issue and on Sunday he was placed on the injured list. An MRI...
The Baltimore Orioles fired manager Brandon Hyde earlier in May and according to an MLB insider current Chicago Cubs bench coach Ryan Flaherty will be the leading candidate to become Baltimore's new skipper in 2026. USA Today's Bob Nightengale revealed on Sunday that Craig Counsell's top assistant...
Well, after placing Miguel Amaya on the injured list Sunday morning the Cubs are down another starting catcher. Veteran Carson Kelly has been scratched from the series-finale against the Reds and recently-added catcher Reese McGuire will be getting his first start in 2025. Kelly is down because of...
The Chicago Cubs have officially placed Miguel Amaya on the 10-day injured list with an oblique strain, but they're not calling up top catching prospect Moises Ballesteros to replace him on the 26-man roster. Instead, veteran Reese McGuire has been selected from Triple-A. McGuire has had an...
The Cubs are about to take a significant downgrade behind the plate as catcher Miguel Amaya is headed to the injured list. Amaya was taken out of Saturday's game against the Reds after he made a throw to second base, trying to throw out Elly De La Cruz in the fifth inning....
Right-handed relief pitcher Julian Merryweather has been designated for assignment. His time with the Cubs is over for now as the 33-year-old has dramatically declined during the past month. Merryweather had a stellar debut season with the Cubs in 2023, but he missed most of the 2024 season with...
So, it's looking more and more like Julian Merryweather's 2023 season was a fluke and maybe other Cubs fans came to that realization a lot quicker than I did because holy shit has he been awful. Time has to be ticking for Merryweather, who has now given up at least one run in six of his last 10...
This is unreal. I think in the back of our minds we knew that Pete Crow-Armstrong could one day develop into a great player and have a couple monster seasons, but he's already a star at 23-years-old in what's essentially his first full year in the majors. Friday night's two-homer, six-RBI game once...
Stop fighting it. Accept it. Enjoy it. The Cubs have a 23-year-old star in Pete Crow-Armstrong. PCA homered twice in Friday night's 13-6 win over the Reds and while the final score was lopsided Crow-Armstrong led a comeback that started in the seventh inning. Having already homered early in the...
The Cubs completed a three-game sweep of the White Sox at Wrigley Field this past Sunday, but before the final out was recorded there was some drama between Miguel Vargas and Brad Keller. White Sox fans are all too familiar with Keller after he threw at Tim Anderson back in 2019, and there was...
I remember when Anthony Rizzo made his Cubs debut back in 2012, and thinking to myself, huh that batting stance looks a little weird. At the time, Rizzo had 49 lackluster MLB games under his belt with the Padres the year before, but he started to figure things out. Yet, even that batting stance had...
The Chicago Cubs have activated veteran right-handed pitcher Ryan Brasier from the injured list prior to their series opener against the Cincinnati Reds on Friday. The veteran reliever returns to the Cubs bullpen after missing all but one of the team's 50 games so far in 2025. Brasier, 37, was...
