The Cubs (56-43) rebounded nicely after opening the second half with a loss, taking two easy wins from the Twins (49-51) to gain a little ground in the Wild Card standings. They were not able to creep any closer to the Brewers (62-37), though Milwaukee suffered a big loss when [...]

Pedro Ramírez's first taste of the majors has been everything the Cubs could've hoped for. With impressive contact skills, encouraging underlying metrics, and a mature approach at the plate, the 22-year-old is making a strong case that he's here to stay. [...]

I’m glad ‘The Odyssey’ is thousands of years old, or else I’d really be worried about spoilers right about now. The Cubs will get Jameson Taillon back today, officially, and they’ll have to make a roster move to accommodate his return. It could be a reliever going out, or it could [...]

THUMP. That was a nice ending to a solid series win over the Twins at Wrigley Field this weekend. Alex Bregman and Nico Hoerner — two poster boys of the Cubs’ first-half shortcomings — are today’s Ankin Law: “Making it Personal” Co-Players of the Game. Before the game got out of [...]
