It’s the last day in May and the first time this season the Cubs will be featured as the Sunday Night Game of the Week in 2026. It’s also the beginning of a whole new era of Sunday Night Baseball here at Bleed Cubbie Blue, with the game moving from ESPN to NBC this season. […]
The belief around Major League Baseball is that Tarik Skubal will be traded at the MLB trade deadline, which is August 3 this season. The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal recently reported that things are ‘trending’ toward a blockbuster Skubal trade, which will certainly send shockwaves across MLB. Tarik Skubal is still recovering from an elbow injury, […]

The St. Louis Cardinals are on a postseason track and could swing for the fences with the ultimate blockbuster trade for Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal.
From overrated chants to a failing to throw Pete Crow-Armstrong's home run ball back onto the field, it was a bad night for the 'tarps off' St. Louis Cardinals fan section.
The Chicago Cubs got a huge performance from Pete Crow-Armstrong on Saturday. Crow-Armstrong finished the team’s game against the St. Louis Cardinals with a home run and four total hits. Chicago defeated the Redbirds, 6-1. Crow-Armstrong spoke after the game about how he needs to keep it up, especially after he engages in trash talk. […]

We all know this sort of talent is within Ben Brown and Pete Crow-Armstrong, and Saturday night in St. Louis, both of these players showed it off. Brown threw seven outstanding innings, his longest outing of the year, and PCA went 4-for-5, including a memorable home run, as the Cubs evened up the series with […]
Over the past week, the St. Louis Cardinals have been a shell of the team we had seen for the first 50 games. After surpassing all expectations and changing fan tune from necessary rebuild to playoff hopefuls, the stretch of NL Central games has exploited some holes on the St. Louis roster. While we knew […]
Nolan Arenado‘s no-trade clause was the most obvious obstacle for the Cardinals in their attempts to trade the third baseman during the last two offseasons, as Arenado (especially during the winter of 2024-25) had a very short list of acceptable landing spots. It didn’t help that Arenado was also owed a substantial amount of money, […]
The Saturday night matchup between the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs was supposed to be electric. What it turned out to be was…odd. The St. Louis Cardinals got a solid start out of Kyle Leahy, yet he wouldn’t make it out of the 5th inning and the Cardinals offense was nearly mute squandering what […]
Go get ‘em, Ben.
After a thrilling Friday night victory full of St. Louis Cardinals home runs, game 2 of the rivalry will happen Saturday night at Busch Stadium as Kyle Leahy will make the start for the St. Louis Cardinals while the Chicago Cubs will ask Ben Brown to take one for the team. Saturday night’s game will […]

Chicago Cubs vs. St. Louis Cardinals preview, Saturday 5/30, 6:15 CT
Yesterday was an annoying baseball day. The Cubs lost to the Cardinals after hitting a three-run homer in the first inning. They were one run short of tying the game in the ninth, because the BABIP gods were apparently a little annoyed at Nico Hoerner and Phil Maton keeps throwing in relatively close games for […]
Cubs left-hander Shōta Imanaga was off to such a good start this season. Over his first nine starts he posted a 2.32 ERA and allowed just five home runs in 54.1 innings. Maybe, just maybe, he had put the home-run issue from last year in the past? Well, nope, or so it now seems. Over […]
As the Cardinals complete their first third of the season, I want to check in on some of the underlying metrics for the Cardinals’ position player core. As a group, it is hard to be anything but happy with the performance thus far. Despite losing Brendan Donovan and Willson Contreras, the team wRC+ has increased […]
There’s nothing quite as heartwarming as letting your former team know what they gave up on. Nelson Velázquez greeted the Chicago Cubs by slamming the first pitch he saw into the visitor’s bullpen helping the St. Louis Cardinals win Friday night. He was joined in the home run parade by Ivan Herrera and Thomas Saggese, […]
Go get ‘em, Shōta.
One of those weekends you circle on your calendar before the season begins will start Friday night at Busch Stadium as the St. Louis Cardinals play host to those nemesis Chicago Cubs. The tiny bears will force Shota Imanaga onto the mound while Andre Pallante will take the ball for the St. Louis Cardinals. First […]
There are celebrations, and then there are celebrations that cross the line . Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe performed the latter, and has now been hit by Major League Baseball with a one-game suspension.

The Brewers finished off a satisfying sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday, then got a deserved day off on Thursday. Tonight, they’re in Houston, where they face the Astros in the first game of a three-game jaunt on the road before getting back to Milwaukee on Monday. The Astros started the season poorly, […]
Friday notes… Cubs lineup: Cardinals lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. Andre Pallante, RHP Shōta Imanaga was having a pretty good year until his last two starts, which were both awful. I’ll just note that half of all the runs he’s allowed this year (15 of 30) were in those two starts. But here’s a team […]
Cardinals 6, Cubs 5: Shōta Imanaga and the home runs. Again.

Tonight is the 58th Cubs game of the 2026 season and finally, finally the team will be facing its biggest rival, the St. Louis Cardinals. On the one hand, you shouldn’t have to go through 35 percent of the season before facing that biggest rival. On the other hand, this means that 13 of the […]
