We know the Cubs are in the market for pitching help, both in the rotation and the bullpen, as the trade deadline approaches. We also know that they’ve got a pool of young, versatile position players from which to deal. Some pursuits may be stifled by the dearth of impact arms in the organization, hence … The post Matt Shaw Could Resume Swinging Soon, James Triantos Staying Present as Deadline Looms appeared first on .
It’s Saturday and the Bears report to camp in just a few days. That means next week we are going to be pivoting to a lot of training camp coverage, which means we should wrap up our Dynasty Fantasy Football series this weekend. We have four teams left, so let’s dive in. Adam Hess is […]
This is the second in an occasional series about starting pitchers the Cubs might want to target in a trade. I didn’t expect to write this one, but from the same Ken Rosenthal/Will Sammon article in The Athletic that mentioned Reid Detmers, who I profiled yesterday, they also mention Mariners right-hander Emerson Hancock: In their […]

Good news: the Yankees acquired a future Cy Young Award winner as the Player To Be Named Later in a deal in 1984 that sent their 31-year-old veteran first baseman to the Chicago White Sox.

The big story in Chicago Blackhawks land right now is of course the return of franchise legend Patrick Kane with the team. Kane had his first press conference b
NHL star Jonathan Toews may have retired, but the Chicago Blackhawks are already planning his return in another way. General manager Kyle Davidson confirmed the organization wants its former captain back for a ceremonial stint. Davidson spoke on Friday during…
Good morning! With the unfortunate news of Kyle Teel's injury, the White Sox also lost perhaps their best shot at a catcher providing ten home runs for them on the season. No doubt this was front of mind for many of you when the news broke. As we sit entering Friday's slate of games, though, Drew Romo has five dingers and Edgar Quero has just two. Teel in 78 games last season socked eight home runs, so he really did seem up to the task of getting to double digits. Alas. The post Sporcle Sa...
The White Sox suffered a crushing loss after surrendering eight runs in the sixth inning, but their response will reveal whether this becomes something much worse.
Patrick Kane raised eyebrows during his Chicago Blackhawks introduction after making a comment that many viewed as a subtle shot at his former team, the Detroit Red Wings. Patrick Kane is back with the Chicago Blackhawks , but one comment during his introductory press conference quickly drew attention beyond his return to the franchise where he won three Stanley Cups . While explaining why he chose to come back, the veteran forward appeared to take a subtle shot at his former team, the Detro...
The Chicago Bulls should capitalize on a LeBron James to-the-76ers roster ripple effect by seeking a trade for rookie Labaron Philon Jr.
The Cubs didn’t generate much offense Friday night in Pittsburgh, just six hits and three walks. They struck out 11 times and left seven runners on base. Thanks to some great defensive work, solid pitching, a Pete Crow-Armstrong homer and a two-run 10th inning, the Cubs opened their road trip with a 3-2 win over […]
The Detroit Red Wings are searching for scoring help, and one of the best wingers still available has become a target. Per David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period on the DFO Rundown, the Red Wings have expressed interest in free agent forward Eeli Tolvanen, viewing him as an option to fill a role in their top-six. The interest stems from a clear hole in the lineup. Filling The Kane Void Detroit's need for a top-six winger grew after Patrick Kane departed for the Chicago Blackhawks. Pagnott...
The Chicago Blackhawks icon had a lot of good things to say on Friday.
MLB Pipeline released new top-30 lists for each organization, but the rollout is a little strange, at least on the White Sox’s side. The big hangup is that it doesn’t yet include draft picks because the signing deadline is Monday, so it seems like they could’ve just waited until Monday. Instead, Caleb Bonemer gets a… The post White Sox Minor Keys: July 24, 2026 appeared first on Sox Machine .
Today’s Reflections This group of starting pitchers are earning a middle name of “But One Pitch”. Shota Imanaga avoided getting that tag in his last outing, but Colin Rea didn’t Wednesday. Rea’s pitching line would have been six baserunners over five innings with five strikeouts. He did earlier give up a solo home run, and […]
Caleb Wilson said after his draft selection, “I want to be the greatest of all time.” While some are critical of this statement, franchise legend Derrick Rose is throwing his weight behind the Chicago rookie. D-Rose even answered about relating to the newest Bulls star. “I feel like you have to be delusional in a […] The post Derrick Rose Praises Bulls Rookie Caleb Wilson for Being “Delusional” as NBA Icon Responds to Comparisons appeared first on EssentiallySports .
Patrick Kane is returning to Chicago, signing a two-year deal to go back to the Blackhawks. It’s a nice way for him and the team to presumably put the final chapter on his career and go full circle for a Hall of Fame run. It also made me think of how that was denied for […]
Understanding that the true White Sox prospect list is the yearly offseason South Side Sox Top 100 Prospects, the closest second you’ll find the MLB Pipeline Top 30, which is issued in the offseason and midseason after the draft. MLB’s updated list was issued yesterday (sans 2026 draft picks, who have yet to play a […]
Left-hander Drew Pomeranz has elected free agency. If you want to know why I don’t do Dominican Summer League recaps, among the many reasons is that Cubs Blue lost to Pirates Gold today 21-17. Cubs Blue drew 18 walks and issued 11 of them. Iowa Cubs Rained out. Doubleheader on Saturday in Gwinnett. Knoxville Smokies […]
The Cubs and Pirates began their series at PNC Park on Friday night with an old-fashioned pitcher’s duel. Each team could only produce a single run in the first nine frames, but the road side scratched out a couple in the top of the 10th inning and held on to win. Starting pitchers Matthew Boyd … The post Chicago Cubs Score and Recap (7/24/26): Cubs 3, Pirates 2 F/10 – Swanson Single Leads to Extras W appeared first on .
While a regulation MLB game is nine innings, it can take just one inning to change the entire landscape of a game. Unfortunately for the White Sox, they were on the bad end of an inning that was more horrifying than the recent Backrooms movie. It was an odd game that had the good vibes […]
