Against Pirates
There aren’t so many things going well for the Cubs of late, but one of them is that they have a set of games against the Pittsburgh Pirates, a team that has had losing seasons for 17 straight years. The Cubs are still trying to show that they wont be below .500 this season. It’s […]

Hendry
Jim Hendry has been given a lot of grief, especially over the last two or three weeks, because of how much trouble his team has been having. He’s a talented GM, the kind of GM that anyone might want to have. He’s brought two division titles to the North Side and some great players. He’s […]

Ouch
This is the end of a long road for the Cubs’ outfielder Milton Bradley. While the jokes with board games have been fun, but Bradley is out. He was suspended over the weekend for the remainder of the season. It was expected to be a good year for the Cubs, but it didn’t work out […]

Big Z
Carlos Zambrano will probably be back on the Cubs next year. While there have been a lot of people talking about trading him and getting him out of town.

The Brewers are even further behind the St. Louis Cardinals than are the Cubs, but it doesn’t much matter at […]

Winning Again
Derrick Lee came back from a bit of a fun weekend and hit a couple of home runs yesterday, trying to get his team back into the playoff race. They beat the Pirates, which usually isn’t a tough feat and they did just fine yesterday. But they will need a lot more wins like that […]

Cubs To Be Phoenixes? Or Rockies?
The Cubs are having a rough time. Soriano has been put out of the game indefinitely with the knee problem that has hurt him over the last several years. He has also been one of the disappointments of the team this year. It’s been an unfortunate year. But don’t lose hope yet, Chicagoans! Piniella seems […]
