    • Cubs 5, Diamondbacks 3: Hayden Wesneski saves the day
    Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports The righthander, just called up from Iowa, shut the door on the D-backs. The Cubs summoned bullpen reinforcements from Triple-A Iowa for Wednesday’s game, having had almost all their relievers throw a lot of pitches over the last few games, including two extra-inning games in Arizona. That was not only a smart thing to do, it paid off in the rubber game of this...2024

    Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images The Braves hit three homers, Chris Sale was good, and the bullpen gave no quarter once again After two bonkers comeback wins to take the series on Friday and Saturday, the Braves, perhaps unexpectedly, engaged in a perfectly normal baseball contest in which they also emerged victorious by a 5-2 score. They did normal things like hitting some homers, playi...2024

    Photo by Mary Turner/Getty Images Here’s how the team stands at the beginning of the season. Let me stipulate something right now, before we get into the “Cubs should have signed Jordan Montgomery!” argument again. It’s clear that ownership has, at least for the time being, established a payroll level for the Cubs that will not go over the first level of luxury tax, which this year is $237...2024

That was Joe Maddon in November 2014, at the freewheeling presser held to introduce him as Cubs manager. The Cubs had just come off three of the worst seasons in recent franchise memory, as Theo Epstein rebuilt the ballclub. They had lost 101, 96 and 89...2024

In re-reading my midseason grades article, I noted this passage: Last year’s team went 39-31 after the break, a .557 winning percentage. If this year’s team can play to that percentage in the 73 remaining games, they’ll go 41-32. That would result in an 83-79 final record. I don’t claim to be prescient...2023

Over his first 53⅓ innings this year, after returning from a shoulder injury, Kyle Hendricks allowed just two home runs. Since then, in a total of 4⅔ innings — all of Friday’s game plus the last two hitters he faced at Yankee Stadium last Sunday — he’s served up six long balls. Now you...2023

(If that sounds familiar, I wrote the same words in last year’s midseason grades article.) The Cubs stand seven games out of first place in the N.L. Central at the All-Star break.

Kay is 27 and was the Mets’ No. 1 pick (31st overall) in the 2016 Draft out of UConn. The Jays acquired him in July 2019 in the Marcus Stroman deal, so there’s a Cubs connection.
