I’m headed to Bears Training Camp for the first time this morning – thanks for taking me, Luis! – and I’m pretty excited to see what it’s like. I’ve been to Spring Training a million times, and I love it. I don’t necessarily expect training camp to be quite the same for a variety of reasons, but I’m thinking it could be its own bit of fun.
Oh, but, um, if the baseball world could please not break any huge trades or rumors for the next couple hours, that’d be swell.
[ankin_law] The two bigger kiddos have performances all weekend, so that's going to be a lot of fun. Busy. Extremely busy. But fun. Justin Steele was really good last night, and if not for a dropped third strike that Miguel...

Surprise: the White Sox series did not magically fix all that ails the Cubs. They will have to fundamentally improve over a much, much, much longer trajectory for us to feel any kind of confidence that they can actually get...
Maybe it's just my damaged heart, but it feels like weeks since the Cubs took an early, multi-run lead in a game. Thank you, Miguel Amaya for the third inning single, and thank you, Seiya Suzuki for the following homer:
It's a game of homers so far, with Seiya Suzuki's two-run shot getting it started, then Elly De La Cruz's three-run homer giving the Reds the lead, and now Christopher Morel's two-run shot taking it back. That's a dozen on...
