Chicago Cubs vs. St. Louis Cardinals preview, Sunday 7/5, 1:30 CT
Sunday notes… Cubs lineup: Cardinals lineup: Javier Assad, RHP vs. Matthew Liberatore, LHP Javier Assad had some rough starts early this year, then spent some time in Triple-A, then was recalled due to injury. He was on a seven-start run with an ERA of 1.80 and a WHIP of 0.767 when he was called on […]

2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Pete Crow-Armstrong is the Superhero vs. the Cardinals
I’m going to start here again, there are still only five teams with more wins than the Cubs through July 4. On a pace to win 89 games. Go math. The Cubs played a game and lost. That lowered their overall win pace by an equivalent number. We’re getting to the point in the season […]
Pete Crow-Armstrong is the Cubs’ only All-Star
Major League Baseball chose Saturday evening to announce this year’s All-Star teams — an odd time, in my view, the evening of a holiday — and Pete Crow-Armstrong made the NL All-Star team for the second straight season. Last year he was an elected starter; this year he’ll be a reserve outfielder. Here’s what PCA […]
Cardinals 3, Cubs 0: Lost in the fog
Any time it would like to stop raining in the Chicago area would be fine with me. Saturday’s 3-0 Cubs loss to the Cardinals was delayed 59 minutes before it began by yet another heavy rainfall that drenched the north side of Chicago, then delayed another 15 minutes after the end of the sixth inning […]
Chicago Cubs news — Ramirez, Bregman, PCA
Today’s Reflections Well. That was slap in the face Friday. And the Cubs know how the Padres felt on Wednesday. I had mentioned in the last Cub Tracks that part of the reason that this is an unforgettable season is the big swings in winning and losing streaks. Over the 48 hours between the thrashing […]
Cubs Minor League Wrap: Happy 4th of July
Shelby Miller threw live batting practice in Mesa. Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs got all dirty against the Toledo Mud Hens (Tigers), 7-6. Starter Grant Kipp lasted four innings and gave up five runs on five hits. Three of those five hits were home runs, which accounted for all five runs. Kipp walked two and […]

Cubs roster move: Jake Woodford added, Bryse Wilson DFA
Bryse Wilson had one good outing for the Cubs and one bad one, and now he’s gone. The Cubs signed right-hander Jake Woodford to a major league deal today and added him to the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster. Wilson was designated for assignment. Woodford is 29 and began his MLB career with the […]

2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Carson Kelly is the Superhero vs. the Cardinals
After a game like this, I think it’s important to start with the big picture. There are only four teams with more wins than the Cubs. The Cubs are on pace for 90 wins. Deep breath and flush. This loss doesn’t count extra and neither does Wednesday’s blowout win. Just two random, crazy games in […]
Chicago Cubs news — Swanson, Conforto, Suzuki, PCA, Busch, Rea
Today’s Reflections Yeah. That was fun Wednesday. Really fun. There is a lot of talk about the 23-3 blasting of the Padres below, and plenty of talk about Dansby Swanson hitting out of his mind, so I won’t regurgitate all the names, numbers and legends involved. I was just reflecting on this first half of […]
Cubs Minor League Wrap: BJ Murray, Iowa edge Toledo, 5-4
The Cubs released outfielder Chas McCormick. Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs cracked the eggs of the Toledo Mud Hens (Tigers), 5-4. The win was the 1,500th in manager Marty Pevey’s career. Ty Blach started and got the win. Blach pitched five innings and gave up three runs on six hits. Blach walked four and struck […]
Cardinals 17, Cubs 1: Hey, David Peterson! All you can do is laugh
So remember in Wednesday’s recap when I said maybe games like this make me reconsider my desire for MLB to have a mercy rule? Can I take that back? The Cubs put a +20 on their run differential with Wednesday’s win — and gave 16 of that back Friday afternoon in a 17-1 blowout by […]

Cubs roster move: Drew Pomeranz added, Jordan Wicks optioned
During his most recent stint with the Cubs, left-hander Jordan Wicks threw pretty well: Four innings of relief, one run allowed, a pair of strikeouts. He also picked up two saves. Wicks threw 40 pitches in Wednesday’s win over the Padres, and so the Cubs optioned him to Triple-A Iowa on the off day Thursday, […]
On The Horizon: Cubs vs. Cardinals series preview
The Cubs are the hottest team in MLB, having won 15 of their last 19, and the Cardinals, as you’ll see below, are on a skid. Here’s hoping the Cubs keep that skid going. Standings update: The Reds did the Cubs a favor Thursday by defeating the Brewers, so the Cubs enter Friday’s action five […]
Pete Crow-Armstrong named National League Player of the month for June
After a very, very slow start to his 2026 season, Pete Crow-Armstrong turned on the jets in June. (Actually, a bit before that, as I will show you.) In 26 games in June, PCA batted .381/.468/.781 (40-for-105) with five doubles, two triples, 11 home runs, 20 RBI, 21 runs scored, 17 walks and eight stolen […]
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Biggest outliers
