Latest blog entries from Chicago teams across every league
The Cubs should be up 3-0 in this series, but a patchwork bullpen and failure to score any runs prior to Pete Crow-Armstrong’s 10th-inning homer did them in. Even though Trent Thornton is tied with Daniel Palencia for second on the team with three saves, no one is looking at him as a closer. That’s … The post Chicago Cubs Lineup (7/30/26): Assad Closing Series in Return to Rotation appeared first on .

A viral graphic comparing LeBron James' teammates to Michael Jordan's has reignited the long-running GOAT and ring-chasing debate.
Michael Jordan sat on nearly two decades of footage from his final season with the Chicago Bulls before he ever agreed to let anyone touch it. When he finally did, in June 2016, it happened to be the same day LeBron James was parading down the streets of downtown Cleveland, hoisting the Cavaliers’ championship trophy…

Reportedly, Bennedict Mathurin is suddenly on the roster-building radar of the Chicago Bulls. The premise of acquiring Mathurin is an odd choice for a rebuild.
To the extent that any player has an idea of what to expect in the draft, Mississippi high schooler Cole Prosek wasn't expecting to join the White Sox. The 19-year-old infielder had a meeting with Sox brass at the MLB Combine in Arizona that he thought went well, but before he became the 41st overall pick , Prosek felt the Padres, Rockies and Brewers were showing the most interest.

However, he was waived coming out of the […] The post Falcons Signing LB Josh Woods appeared first on NFLTradeRumors.co .
The Yankees have gotten off to a decent start on their ten-game road trip, winning four of the first six contests. They have put themselves in position to win three out of four from the White Sox, which would send them to the North side of Chicago winners of their last three series. Mostly lights-out […]
Let me just go ahead and say right off the top that no one finds it funnier than me that I’m writing about the Cubs possibly pursuing Tarik Skubal just two days after writing that they’re not likely to do so. After both ESPN’s Jeff Passan and The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal left the Cubs off … The post Cubs Reportedly ‘Considering Tarik Skubal as Their Blockbuster Option’ appeared first on .
The New York Yankees looked set for another road win after a four-run first inning. They held the lead until the seventh inning, after which the Chicago White Sox tied the game and clinched the win in extra innings.

The Edmonton Oilers solidified their depth at centre when they re-signed Jason Dickinson to a five-year deal in June worth $4 million per season. Dickinson was acquired in a trade with the Chicago Blackhawks just before the trade deadline last March, and he immediately brought his defensive savvy down the middle, while giving Oilers fans…
I choose to look at the Cubs’ 3-2, 10-inning loss to the Cardinals this way. As you know, the Cubs have had an inordinately large number of injuries to the pitching staff, to the point where there have now been five pitchers who have appeared in exactly one game for the team and several others […]

The Cubs and Cardinals played a full nine innings that were largely uneventful on Wednesday night, with no runs crossing the plate. That changed dramatically in the 10th inning, when the road team jumped ahead and then the home side responded to walk it off in the bottom of the frame. Matthew Boyd was excellent … The post Chicago Cubs Score and Recap (7/29/26): Cardinals 3, Cubs 2 F/10 – PCA Homer Not Enough in Extras Loss appeared first on .
While the Los Angeles Dodgers remain in pursuit of Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, they reportedly aren't alone as Monday's trade deadline approaches.
Given that it’s the week before the trade deadline, any sudden departure from a Triple-A game packs potential meaning, as well as the potential for a false alarm.

Today’s Reflections The first two games of the four-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals have been a dream of near-perfection for the Cubs.

1915 After falling out of first place 10 days earlier, the White Sox fought back into a tie atop the American League courtesy of a 6-4 win at the Yankees; Buck Weaver (4-for-5, homer, double, five RBIs) was the hitting hero while Eddie Cicotte (win) and Jim Scott (save) piloted the win. However, it would […]
Cam Schlittler’s dominant one-run, 6.1-inning outing went in vain as the New York Yankees’ bullpen blew its lead on Wednesday. Aside from the bullpen meltdown, the 12-inning loss to the Chicago White Sox was marked by catcher Ali Sanchez’s throwing error. Manager Aaron Boone found it unacceptable for a big leaguer.
