• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 2003Getty Images Not much happened, and then one BIG deal went down. 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. Trade-wise... here we go. May 9: Traded Alan Benes to the Rang...2023See also World Series -

• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 1997Henry Rodriguez | Getty Images Some deals made this year helped lay the groundwork for the 1998 Cubs wild card season. The Cubs didn’r make a single major player-for-player deal in 1997 until midseason. Instead, coming off a 1996 season they had finished by losing 12 of their last 14, their big dive into the free-agent market was Mel Rojas, who had been a pretty good closer for the Expos i...2023Click for news about Mexican League -
• Cubs historical sleuthing: Tyler Houston editionPhoto by Ronald C. Modra/Getty Images Let’s remember a guy! I found this photo while I was looking for something else, and I like this one in particular because it’s a fairly recent photo that still needs to have an exact date sleuthed. Further, with it being a specific play, we can definitely narrow this down fairly quickly. Getty Images says: Tyler Houston #7 of the Chicago Cubs trying t...2023See more Chicago Cubs -
• A look at Cubs trades in the expansion era: 1988Photo by: 1991 SPX/Diamond Images via Getty Images Some big names both arrived and departed. The Cubs had hoped to contend with the signing of Andre Dawson in 1987. They did for a while, but collapsed in September. Former manager Jim Frey, now GM, attempted to make that right in ‘88. He made some... interesting (translation: mostly not good) deals. February 12: Acquired Rich Gossage and Ra...2023Click for news about Andre Dawson -

• Today in Cubs history: The last game before the 1994 strikePhoto by Brad Mangin/MLB Photos via Getty Images No one knew at the time that the season was over, though some had a feeling.

They played a bit better after that, even getting to within five games of first ...2023See also MLB Photos -
