The Chicago Bears had a fine free agency period, and while they can certainly add another player or two, it sure feels like they’re done adding veterans for a while. Nothing too exciting or crazy happened in free agency for the Bears, just some roster spots getting replaced as they ready themselves for the upcoming […]

The Cubs wrapped up their first series against the Nationals at home over the weekend. It didn’t go as planned with the North iders dropping two of three games after both Matthew Boyd and Shōta Imanaga had some trouble with the long ball. But the big news last week wasn’t the opening series, it came […]
Opening Day is a time for hope. Anything can happen, even a team everyone predicted would finish in the cellar going on a run and sitting in first place most of the year! That’s what happened in 2003, when Runelevys Hernandez tossed a gem on Opening Day, beating the White Sox 3-0. That was the […]
We’re still in March. And the Cubs are once again facing a team that only comes in once… and this time, a team from the West Coast. And after today, the weather forecast looks dicey. So expect either a) postponements or b) games played in poor conditions or c) both. For more on the Angels, […]
After getting knocked around Saturday to the tune of a 10-2 loss, the 2026 Nats showed a level of resilience hardly ever shown by the 2025 club, taking command early thanks to a 3-run shot by Joey Wiemer to defeat the Cubs 6-3 and win their first opening series since 2018. The story of the […]
Welcome back to “Three up, three down,” a review of the previous week’s worth of Cubs action during the regular season. Of course, we don’t have an entire week to review, just three games.

The Nats? GREAT! It was a good Opening Day and a good weekend as the Nats took the series from the Cubs and started the year with one of these for the first time since... 2018? Wow. I mean it's close to a 50/50 thing. ok. The hero of the series is Joey "Enjoy it while you can" Weimer 6-6 with two walks and 2 homers. MVP! On the other side Wood looked really lost in the series striking out 7 times. The starting pitchers were mediocre but good enou...
Mike and Dan recap a week in which the Islanders made us mad, then happy, then both in the same day before celebrating the Rangers elimination with a new Ranger Piece Theatre.

A few times each year, a series happens and I wonder why I do all of this. On some level, I mean recapping these games. But on other levels, it is even just being a fan. Baseball lends itself to so many disappointments. In 42 years of watching this team, I’ve followed so many stupid […]
Happy Monday, everyone! We’ve gotten through the first series of the season (it could have gone better for hte Cubs, let’s just not talk about it), and the season is underway.

After a terrible loss to the Carolina Hurricanes yesterday evening, which really decimated the New Jersey Devils’ longshot playoff hopes, I was looking for one thing above all in the team tonight: whether or not the Devils would play the game for a full 60 minutes and give their best effort. And to be honest, […]
As disheartening as the opening weekend has been for the White Sox, Charlotte has chiseled out three straight wins, sweeping the customarily-daunting Tampa Bay Rays Triple-A affiliate, the Durham Bulls. And unlike the debauched Opening Night that saw 19 Knights cross the plate, the wins on Saturday and Sunday were nail-biters. Charlotte Knights 2, Durham […]

Before you start complaining about Shōta Imanaga serving up another home run at an inopportune time (with two runners on base), consider that you’re not going to win many games when you get only four hits and three of them are solo homers. That was the tale of the Cubs’ 6-3 loss to the Nationals […]
