This is an unreal streak by Brennen Davis. [...]

The Cubs and Pirates battled on a beautiful Saturday afternoon at Wrigley Field in what turned out to be a classic pitchers’ duel. Neither team got on the scoreboard through the first eight innings of the game, setting the stage for Chicago to pull off a dramatic victory in the [...]

Given Jed Hoyer's track record, it's illogical to assume he'll address the ongoing Chicago Cubs bullpen woes by pushing his chips in on a high-end reliever. [...]

This play was a very aggressive send that almost didn’t work because it sounds like Cody Bellinger stumbled rounding third and wasn’t running as well as he could: BALLGAME!

Whew. Pulled that one out at the end. Great pitching today. [...]

Sorry, folks, this is going to be another one where I pretty much punt on any kind of breakdown. The Cubs have dropped two straight to the Pirates, they’re facing a guy they just saw last week, and my son’s got a doubleheader this afternoon. Not a whole lot to [...]

The Cubs made a deal Saturday to acquire lefty Jeff Belge from Tampa in return for lefty Richard Lovelady, who had been designated for assignment to clear room on the 40-man roster for Tyson Miller. The 26-year-old Belge is currently pitching at the Double-A for the Rays after spending all [...]

Dansby Swanson is working his way back. [...]

The Rays and Cubs have agreed to a swap of left-handers, as the Rays announced that Richard Lovelady has been acquired in exchange for minor leaguer Jeff Belge.  In a corresponding move, right-hander Jacob Waguespack was transferred to Tampa Bay’s 60-day injured list to create room on the 40-man roster.

Take a look at the Chicago Cubs lineup for the third game against the Pirates at Wrigley Field. [...]

The Cubs may not be making noise on the trade market yet, but they continue to scour independent ball for depth relievers. Their latest addition is 27-year-old lefty Alex Troop, who had been playing for the Kane County Cougars. An Aurora, IL native, Troop was a ninth-round pick by the [...]
