Series Preview: Dodgers v. Cubs, May 25 – May 27, 2010
It’s series preview time again as the Chicago Cubs welcome the Los Angeles Dodgers to Wrigley. The Dodgers are basically the hottest team in baseball. So that’s cool. A refresher on the series preview here at Bleacher Nation: The idea is to hook you up with the bare minimum of what you need to know [...]
Albert Pujols Needs a Hug

He had x-rays yesterday, and although they came back clean, he’s still going to sit for a few days. X-rays of [...]
Enhanced Box Score: Cubs 5, Rangers 4 – May 23, 2010
Another 5-4 win over the Rangers, and with it, the Cubs take two of three from a very good Texas team. Carlos Silva is now 6-0, which is approximately 10 more wins than I thought he’d have all year with the Cubs. Tweet
Bobby Howry is a Leader, If Not a Pitcher
By Brett on May 24, 2010
In a surprising move, to say the least, the Chicago Cubs welcomed Arizona Diamondback cast-off Bobby Howry into the fold this weekend – directly into the fold. He’s a member of the bullpen now, without so much as having to throw a single minor league pitch to prove himself. ”If I didn’t think I could [...]
