It had to be done. The Chicago Cubs could no longer afford to have Kyle Hendricks start for them every fifth day and on Tuesday the team placed the 2016 World Series hero on the 15-day injured list. Right-handed pitcher Hayden Wesneski has been called up from Triple-A. Hendricks, 34, last pitched...
Matt Mervis is going to be called up today and Chicago Cubs fans have been trying to figure out who the first baseman is going to replace on the 26-man roster. Well, that mystery might have been solved, as a player was spotted leaving Wrigley Field with his bags packed Tuesday afternoon. According...
The Chicago Cubs are reportedly calling up left-handed hitting prospect Matt Mervis from Triple-A. According to Iowa Cubs beat reporter Tommy Birch, Mervis will join the Cubs in time for Tuesday night's series opener against the Houston Astros at Wrigley Field. Mervis, 26, is once again destroying...
So, uhh, that series kinda sucked, huh? The Cubs split a four-game series against the Miami Marlins at home this past weekend and it included Adbert Alzolay's fourth blown save of the season. Alzolay, who went 22-for-25 in save situation in 2023, is now out as the team's closer. Meanwhile, there is...
Tim Anderson struck out on an 83mph splitter from Shōta Imanaga in the sixth inning of Saturday night's game and the Miami Marlins shortstop was not happy with the crowd at Wrigley Field. He had been booed and Anderson gave it right back to Chicago Cubs fans, jawing back at them after striking out,...
It's a crime that Craig Counsell didn't have Cody Bellinger in the lineup in game one of Saturday's double header and yes I understand that it's because the Miami Marlins had a tough lefty pitching, but Counsell deprived us of two games with a Belli bomb. C'mon, of course Cody Bellinger was going...
He's been good in the past, I think he'll be all right later this season, but the Chicago Cubs have a massive problem because Adbert Alzolay is just not the guy to be the closer for this team. He just blew his fourth save of the season as teams continue to hammer Alzolay's mistakes. The Cubs lost...
Well, this looked not great. The Chicago Cubs were cruising against the woeful Miami Marlins, but during the series opener on Friday Ian Happ was seen talking with the team trainer and manager Craig Counsell in the dugout and was then replaced by rookie Alexander Canario in left field to begin the...
The Chicago Cubs are back home after a 5-4 road trip and despite some major injuries and a woeful bullpen Craig Counsell his has squad at 11-7. But baseball fans are gonna baseball fan. Who doesn't love a good ole lineup debate. Is this Craig Counsell or David Ross filling out the lineup card...
The Chicago Cubs had Thursday night's series opener against the Miami Marlins postponed, but the team still made a few official moves to their roster. Right-handed slugger Patrick Wisdom is back on the roster after he concluded a rehab stint at Triple-A with the Iowa Cubs. Meanwhile, right-handed...
A depleted bullpen, another starter who couldn't go beyond five innings all set the scene for right-handed pitcher Hayden Wesneski on Wednesday and all he did was deliver the best pitching performance for the Cubs so far in 2024. Lefty Jordan Wicks tossed 4.1 innings against the Arizona...
The Chicago Cubs started the regular season without right-handed slugger Patrick Wisdom, who began the year on the injured list because of a back strain. Well, after tearing up Triple-A during his rehab stint, it looks like the Cubs are adding Wisdom's power bat back to the roster. Wisdom started...
