Hunter Greene strikes out 12 Cubs as Reds shutout NL Central rivals

Hunter Greene spent over three months on the shelf following his March surgery to cleanup loose bodies in his prized right elbow. Safe to say, when he returned for his season debut last weekend, things went about as poorly as they could have possibly gone. On Friday, though, the Reds officially got their ace back. […]

Pregame notes: Munetaka Murakami returns

The White Sox have lost a season-high three games in a row and are the only MLB team yet to lose four consecutive games at any point this season. They're tied for first place in an AL Central where four teams, including the resurgent Detroit Tigers, are within five games of the division lead. But Munetaka Murakami has been activated off the injured list , so pretty much every question in Will Venable's pregame media availability was at least Murakami-adjacent. The post Pregame notes: Munet...

Are the Blackhawks and Canucks Ideal Trade Partners For Elias Pettersson?

With the Chicago Blackhawks missing Connor Bedard to start the season in recovery from shoulder surgery, general manager Kyle Davidson shouldn't give up on improving the lineup.  The team will be without their 1C, and would give Frank Nazar or Anton Frondell a shot at a top spot in the lineup. But neither has earned the spot.  The team could afford to augment their depth down the middle by turning their gaze West and attempting to leverage their assets for the Vancouver Canucks Elias...

The 41-52 Athletics take on the 47-45 Chicago White Sox at Rate Field in Chicago today. The Southsiders are in the midst of the most dramatic turn-around from last season, currently sitting in first place in the American League (AL) Central, while the visiting A’s are mired in a six-game losing streak and open the […]

Spencer Steer to start in CF as Reds open series against Cubs

Spencer Steer has played just about everywhere across his college and professional careers. One place he has never played, though, is in CF. On the same day that news broke that Matt McLain would be heading to the 10-day IL with a calf strain he picked up shagging balls in CF as a player who […]

Chicago Cubs Lineup (7/10/26): Imanaga Starting, Bat Try to Make Reds Turn Greene

I’m currently in Nashville for a baseball tournament, and the only good thing about the extended weekend has been learning that former Cubs pitching prospect Max Bain just became a father for the first time. Max is a truly exceptional human being who’s found his calling as a pitching development guru, and I’m very happy … The post Chicago Cubs Lineup (7/10/26): Imanaga Starting, Bat Try to Make Reds Turn Greene appeared first on .

Pyschoanalyzing the White Sox draft room

Chicago’s future will be decided this weekend in a conference room in Philadelphia, at approximately 12 p.m. CT. Although I only partially mean it facetiously, that’s how the front office has seen the first pick of the 2026 MLB draft since the Winter Meetings that revealed its lottery win.  For the last seven months, Chicago’s […]

The full breakdown of the trade is as follows: Timberwolves acquire LaMelo Ball, Josh Green, and the draft rights to Isaiah Evans (No. 33 […]

White Sox weathered Munetaka Murakami’s absence, and now have entire front-line offense in place

If you determine the White Sox's record during Munetaka Murakami's absence by the games where he was unable to participate at all, they went 17-18 during his 35-game absence for a strained hamstring. If you approach it like the Major League Baseball rulebook determines a pitcher's record, then you could say the White Sox went .500. The Sox trailed 2-1 when Murakami left the May 29 game against the Tigers , and didn't lead until Miguel Vargas walked it off with the final swing of the game. Fo...
