The Reds’ outfield was kind enough to allow the Cubs plenty of extra bases on balls they should have caught and/or corralled, and surely Jameson Taillon was thankful for the support. Moises Ballesteros had a highlight [VIDEO]. Chas McCormick drove in a […]

Reds 17, Cubs 9: The pitching and defense forgot to show up
The Cubs scored four runs in the first inning of this game and the game summary shows they hit three doubles in that inning, but all three of those baseballs could have been played had the Reds had a bit better defense. In the end it didn’t matter, as Jameson Taillon and Ryan Rolison both […]

2026 Cubs: Know your enemy, NL West
The Dodgers are going to win 130 games and blow away the NL West. Of course they’re not going to do that. Isn’t that what was said about the Dodgers last year? They won exactly one more game than the Cubs did. Obviously they’re the favorites to win their division again, as they have done […]

White Sox 5, Cubs 1: Here we go with Shōta Imanaga and the home runs again
MESA, Arizona — The Cubs’ 5-1 loss to the White Sox on another very hot afternoon was painfully reminiscent of some Shōta Imanaga starts last year. Imanaga threw 47 pitches in 2.2 innings. Three of those pitches left the yard, solo homers by Edgar Quero, Austin Hays and Braden M0ntgomery, two of whom will likely […]

Cubs 6, Dodgers 2: Colin Rea, Ben Brown and Javier Assad throw blanks
The Dodgers were a split squad Saturday, but many of their regulars played against the Cubs, among them Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, Max Muncy and Teoscar Hernández.
