    • 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 33
    Photo by Nuccio DiNuzzo/Getty Images The Brewers run wild on Cubs in the eighth and take the opener. That eighth inning yesterday has been one of the more frustrating innings for me of this Cubs season. I mean, there was the inning that just wouldn’t end in Boston last weekend, but that game was already out of reach. There were the four blown ninth-inning leads, but those had some suddenn...2024

    • 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 32
    Photo by Daniel Shirey/MLB Photos via Getty Images The Cubs inability to close out a game pops up again in a 7-6 loss. In probably the biggest upset of the young 2024 season to date, I made it through the first 31 games without writing a glass half full/glass half empty piece. It’s probably my biggest go to as a writer, but the cup has run over so much in the early going, I just haven’t r...2024

    • 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 31
    Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images A crazy finish in the Cubs’ 1-0 victory. It isn’t often that you can describe a 1-0 game as a wild one. I was out while most of this game was going on, but I did catch the final three innings and it was a crazy ride. As usual, head over to Al’s game recap to discuss the blow by blow. There is so much to dissect in this one. I’ll offer two quick thoughts o...2024

    • 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 30
    Photo by Sarah Stier/Getty Images The Cubs’ mini-slump continues in a 4-2 loss. When a team gets shutdown on a given day, it can be as much about the pitcher for the other team as much as it is about the team. When an offense goes more or less silent for four days, it’s unlikely that the answer is that you ran into four guys who were locked in all at the same time. Certainly not impossibl...2024

    • 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 29
    Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images The Cubs rally for a late win in New York. A little over a week ago, I wrote about the balance of games the Cubs lost where it appeared they had the game won and the opposite. One commenter zeroed in on the unique animal that is four blown ninth-inning leads. To be sure, even some bad teams don’t cough up for such games over the course of a year. Usually ...2024

    • 2024 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 28
    Photo by Jaiden Tripi/Getty Images The Cubs come back late only to see the Red Sox walk it off. This weekend was one of the first times that I felt that the cumulative weight of all of the injuries started to really show. On Saturday, we saw too many pitchers who have been forced into larger roles than they were originally targeted for. On Sunday, the Cubs offense felt a bat or two short....2024

    Photo by Billie Weiss/Boston Red Sox/Getty Images Cubs rookies carry the load in 7-1 win for their fourth straight. I’m ready to combine my repetitive thoughts from last year and this year into one thought. Last year, I implored the Cubs to “get greedy.” Any they climbed into contention by doing just that. This year, I’ve applauded them for being relentless on several occasions. Right now,...2024

    Photo by Michael Reaves/Getty Images The Cubs sweep the Astros to close a successful homestand. Every season is an entity onto its own. You watch enough seasons and they start to feel like one long homogenous mass. But when you sort them out, or more specifically when one is going on, you can really feel that individuality. And so, as we sit in front of this currently unfolding season, th...2024

    Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports Deja Vu! The Cubs ride early offense to another win over the Astros. For the second straight game, the Cubs rode the same strategy to victory over the visiting Astros. That formula was, ambush them with a big inning in the bottom of the first, ride a strong pitching performance and cruise to victory. Well, actually, like any good sequel, the second one w...2024

Tuesday night, the Cubs got just what the doctor ordered to get over their disappointing weekend series with the Marlins. The two best things you can get after a frustrating game are a good start from your starting pitcher. Check. And first inning runs. Aggressively check. Jordan Wicks gave the Cubs six str...2024

    Photo by Griffin Quinn/Getty Images The Cubs were tripped up by the Marlins and so, settle for a weekend split. I know I’m having a selective memory problem, but I just feel like every year there is some disappointment involving games with the Marlins. Some of them are obvious. The recent post season loss. The 2003 soul-crushing NLCS loss. Heck, go all the way back to 1997 and they were a...2024

There is really no need to talk about this game. It was a train wreck. From my perspective, there were two frustrating things about this game and neither really amounts to much in the long run.

    Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports Too many walks allowed, too few hits doom Cubs in Seattle. Two weeks do not make a baseball season by any means. However, I chuckle every time I hear someone say that the Cubs didn’t really do anything in the offseason. Certainly, running it back with a team that didn’t reach the playoffs and hoping that internal growth seems like a silly plan. That said, ...2024

    Photo by Brandon Sloter/Getty Images An excellent bounce-back game. The Cubs have started this season about as hot as I can remember any team since the 2016 team. The Opening Day loss was a close one, marred by Justin Steele’s injury. That hiccup in the sequencing on the pitching maybe cost them a win in that one. They got smoked in game two. In the nine games since then, they are 7-2 wit...2024

    Matt Marton-USA TODAY Sports A three-game sweep sets up a fight to the finish. As easy as one, two, three! Okay, well, it wasn’t easy. But, the Cubs took care of a woeful (on the road) Rockies team in business-like fashion. This season has been so many things that we don’t always see from the Cubs. I’ve talked about it several times regarding their ability to come off the mat and rebound...2023

    Isaiah J. Downing-USA TODAY Sports The Cubs fumble the lead late, but bounce back to win 5-4. In the moment, I suspect Jordan Wicks would tell you that winning a game and the march towards the playoffs is what matters. That’s the right thing to say and is admirable. At the end of the day, it is a team sport. You win as a team and you win at a lose. It isn’t about individual accomplishments...2023
