• Kerry Wood and Aramis Ramirez will join the Cubs Hall of FameChicago Cubs The announcement was made at the Cubs Convention. Generally, not much news is made at the opening ceremony of the Cubs Convention. It’s intended to be a love fest between players old and new and fans. One new thing that’s been done the last couple of years at the ceremony is to reveal the names of Cubs stars who will be added to the team’s Hall of Fame later on this year.

• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 2009Tom Gorzelanny | Getty Images This was not a good year for Jim Hendry’s trades. This is the year when Jim Hendry’s GM tenure went off the rails. From signing Milton Bradley as a free agent — a colossal mistake — to some weird and bad trades, 2009 began his downfall.

• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 2008Rich Harden | Getty Images The Cubs sent away more value than they received in 2008. The Cubs won the most games they had in a single season (97) since 1945. With it being the 100th anniversary of the last World Series win, it was hoped... but nope, all that got the team was a division series sweep at the hands of the Dodgers. And only a handful of trades were made. January 5: Acquired Cor...2024Check it out World Series injury update -
• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 2005Photo by Warren Wimmer/Getty Images There were a lot of hit-or-miss minor trades, and a couple of big ones. The 2005 Cubs were expected to do better than they did. Instead, it was a year muddling around .500, and the trades made that year reflected that.

The Cubs stood pat trade-wise over the 2002-03 offseason, though they did sign some free agents, including Tom Goodwin and Lenny Harris — the latter, terrible for the Cubs, wound up with a World Series ring after the Cubs let him go and he signed with the Marlins.

• Sammy Sosa, Tom Ricketts and the CubsPhil Velasquez/Chicago Tribune/Tribune News Service via Getty Images It’s time to touch the third rail. Wednesday, I posted the text of an email Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts had sent to fans. Many of the comments to that post had to do with the relationship, or non-relationship, between Ricketts and former Cubs star Sammy Sosa. So I thought it’s time I addressed this issue.

According to the Chicago Tribune, the former Chicago Cubs’ ace, Kerry Wood and his wife, have placed their $3.595 million dollar Lincoln Park mansion on the market.

"It certainly wasn’t as neat as when Kerry Wood, Randy Johnson, Max Scherzer, and Roger Clemens struck out 20 batters, but the Boston Red Sox tied the MLB record for most strikeouts in a nine-inning game after five of their pitchers combined to strike out 20 Texas Rangers on Thursday night at Fenway Park." - 2016
