Anthony Rizzo is making his debut with the New York Yankees tonight, and while I wish him nothing but instant and tremendous success, here’s the reality: it’s a little tough to see him in the Yankees gear. And it’s tough to see him hit his first homer, in a tie game, to give the Yankees the lead.
It’s a big moment with a team that is no longer the Cubs:

OK. Inhale. I just wish him well.

The Chicago Cubs of the more recent era rarely dip into the Rule 5 Draft. The system has been fairly deep for a long time now, and the Cubs have been just as good finding flyers in minor league free...
These feel a little throwaway-liney, which is why I'm not going to jump both feet in on a long post just yet, especially because they're so unconnected (other than financially, I suppose). But if we hear more about Jesus Luzardo...

The best part of any meal is the main course. And in this offseason, that's undoubtedly Kyle Tucker ... the best player the Chicago Cubs have had in almost a decade. HOWEVER, everyone loves a little dessert. And that may...
I just can't get enough joyful Kyle Tucker bits right now following the big trade. So I started collecting up some of the ones I saw and parked them here.

The Chicago Cubs have made it officially official: Kyle Tucker is here. The team just sent the announcement, with Tucker coming to the Cubs in exchange for Isaac Paredes, Hayden Wesneski, and Cam Smith. https://twitter.com/Cubs/status/1867694757612597363 Now we just wait to...
The behind-the-scenes conversation around Cody Bellinger has reached such a fever pitch that I am modestly surprised it hasn't already happened, especially now that Kyle Tucker is a Cub. The overlapping positions and financial crunch and the general direction of...
I hope that for all of you, as it is for me, today is 99% about the excitement of the Cubs adding a true superstar bat in Kyle Tucker. This was one of those rare opportunities to add one of...
The Chicago Cubs don't have a superstar? Remember that constant criticism? Well, can't use that line anymore. They just traded for one. After days of intense rumors, it finally happened: the Chicago Cubs acquired outfielder Kyle Tucker from the Houston...
