Wow.
I don’t think you can ever fairly say you didn’t see a Carlos Marmol implosion coming. But, well, I didn’t see this one coming. Not with the Cubs cruising. Not with Marmol so good in his last half dozen outings. Not with a three-run lead.
But, implode he did, spoiling Ryan Dempster’s good night like it was a Matt Garza game.
I wonder what this team could have been with a real closer. Probably won't find out until the end of July. And that's if we're lucky. Through his first four frames tonight, Ben Brown kept the Mets scoreless and hitless....
Well, we've been saying it all week, and it continues to prove true: Chris Morel is clearly breaking out of slump - slowly, but surely. And today's 3-run homer is just the latest positive sign. Check it out: https://twitter.com/MLB/status/1786099502245372166 That...
CUBS LINEUP — The Cubs were able to eke out two improbable wins over the first three games of this series, which means they have a chance for the series win today. Ben Brown will be on the mound for...

Well, my friends, we made it. Almost exactly one month after Brett's back surgery put him on the shelf, he's ready to come back full-time. I'm still your man today for bullets and game coverage, but I'll be handing the...
The Chicago Cubs are seriously going off on the minor league pitching signings here after the start of the season. Sure, you sometimes see one, but this is entirely different (and I suspect it's because of the new stateside org...
Baseball America today released a more complete top-100 prospect update, which incorporates early-season performances and scouting. The Chicago Cubs fare quite well, even as Michael Busch has graduated from the list. And the re-ranking is quite significant ... https://twitter.com/BaseballAmerica/status/1786011881880105284 20....
I get it. If that cleat were on the other foot, I'd probably be pretty mad this morning about how last night's game ended. A walk-off out at the plate, which required a double review, and for which there's an...
How do I even write that up. Wow. Oh my god. I am giddy. That was absolutely incredible. Let me just explain what happened (more than usual), because even I am in utter disbelief. Hector Neris came in to close...

Patrick Williams' Basketball-Reference page isn't what the Chicago Bulls would like. The 22-year-old forward has averaged nearly identical numbers each season of his career. Even more frustrating, two of those seasons were cut short by differing surgeries. While Coby White...

The Los Angeles Rams entered the 2024 NFL Draft in an unfamiliar situation. They had a first-round pick for the first time since 2016 and it couldn’t have come at a better time. They surprisingly made the playoffs last year...
