Flu Bug is Back: Darvish and Kipnis Scratched Today

After blowing the lead in the 8th, the Cubs tried to put together their own comeback in the 9th, but that Christopher Morel bouncer just didn't find the right spot. Worst fake rally ever. The Cubs were in that spot,...

CUBS LINEUP — The first Cubs-Cardinals game of the season was banged on account of rain last night, which is a bummer, because it was Shota Imanaga night. The Cubs are using the unexpected night off to buy Imanaga some...

For as clutch as Yan Gomes was at the plate last season, his offense output this year has been nothing short of brutal: .174/.183/.275 (26 wRC+). He can still call a game as well as anyone, but that's a blackhole...

That's right. ANOTHER one. Thus, I have to start with the same intro: 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...

I won't bore you with the same spiel about how Shota Imanaga is pitching like the best starting pitcher in baseball right now. You already know it in your heart and soul. (Although, it's never actually boring.) Instead, I simply...

The Philadelphia Phillies are the hottest team in baseball, winning 29 of their last 35 games, their best 35-game stretch since Grover Cleveland won the 1982 presidential election—that and more in today's MLB Notes. The Red-Hot Phillies Continue to Their...
