What looked like a heated exchange in the fifth inning may have left more than just bad blood between the Chicago Cubs and Arizona Diamondbacks. The D-backs accused Cubs third base coach Quintin Berry of trying to steal signs, sparking a fiery war of words between the two dugouts and bringing the game close enough […]

Today’s Reflections If I was there this weekend, I definitely would have been “Sleepless in Seattle.” Friday, the Cubs lost a winnable game on a walk-off single by a .130 hitter, Leo Rivas. Then Saturday, the Cubs see a definite win turn into a brutal loss. After that .130 hitter (Rivas) drove in a run […]
After suffering a 7-0 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Monday night, Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Merrill Kelly feels they had an unfair advantage.

The start of the work week wasn’t very kind to the Arizona Diamondbacks. They were on the receiving end of a 7-0 demolition at the hands of the Chicago Cubs, and considering that the Diamondbacks are chasing a postseason spot, losses like this do not help. However, starting pitcher Merrill Kelly believes that the Cubs […]

Record 69-63. Pace: 85-77. Change on 2025: +5. Well, in the broader scheme of things, that probably went about as well as could be expected. It was a Merrill Kelly start, after all. He hasn’t picked up a W in more than a month, his last win coming back on July 22. As mentioned in […]

The Mariners start this series today against the Phillies of Philadelphia fame (the city, not the cream cheese), coming off of a huge series victory over the Chicago Cubs. Granted, the victory also included a more-than-15-run loss in game three, but it was a series victory nonetheless. The Phillies come into today’s series on a […]

Earlier this month, I wrote about the candidates for the NL MVP and AL Cy Young awards. I picked those races because they’re especially close right now. In contrast, there is a clear front-runner for both the AL MVP (Yordan Alvarez) and NL Cy Young (Jacob Misiorowski). So, I hope you’ll forgive me if I […]

The Cubs, Phillies, Padres, Diamondbacks, and Marlins are the only National League teams left with realistic Wild Card chances.
It’s too bad the Cubs can’t use run differential to balance out a loss here and there, because winning 19-2 sure would have helped. But since that can’t make up for two walk-off losses, they really need to take care of business against the Diamondbacks. Before looking ahead to Monday’s game, though, we need to …

The Diamondbacks took two out of three against the Reds the hard way, including a last minute come from behind win and a loss where they gave up 11 runs, losing two pitchers in the aftermath. But they also got Drey Jameson back, and I for one still believe there’s hope he’ll be a productive […]

The Cubs already have the postseason tiebreaker over the Phillies and Padres for a potential Wild Card Series matchup. They swept the Diamondbacks in Wrigley Field back in May, so will need to win only once to get the tiebreaker over Arizona for such a matchup. Of course, two or three wins here would be […]
