Bradley

We’ve been looking for Milton Bradley to end up getting sent out of town for awhile now. It’s going to be a big year for him in some other city, it seems. He just never quite connected with Chicago, but he might just be a better fit somewhere else in the league. For example, possible […]

Fox and Miles Gone

Just like that, two of this year’s players are out the door, sent to the Oakland A’s. Aaron Miles was most likely to be send off somewhere this year. He struggled with the Cubs and hopefully will find the shakeup helpful for him to get back into his rhythm. The surprising loss was Jake Fox, […]

Spring Training News

When spring training begins next year, we know where the Cubs will be. But the year after that and moving forward into the next decade, there might be some changes. That’s the big news this week, because the Cubs might be considering moving from Arizona to Florida for spring training. But the mayor and local […]

John Grabow

With the need that the Cubs have shown for new pitching, we came across the great news this week that they had signed John Grabow to a new contract. While he isn’t new to the team, since he began working with them last season, he has been a valuable asset for much of that time. […]

Signage

A little rift has arisen between the Cubs and a rooftop owner this offseason, when the Cubs installed several large billboard pieces in Wrigley Field in front of the rooftop to cover up the casino billboard that was installed on the man’s roof. The team suggested that it might be a temporary move, depending on […]

Aaron Heilman

 
When Aaron Heilman went to the end of the season, it wasn’t clear that he’d be back. He’s talented, but he hasn’t been able to do such a great job that the team would bring him back. Heilman is headed to Arizona, in exchange for the usual unnamed prospects. It’s not clear that these prospects […]

Back from Whence He Came?

Milton Bradley has been one of the Cubs least-appetizing players for several months now and it’s partly because he wasn’t able to get into any kind of hitting groove despite the fact that the team kept assuring us he was almost there. So they are trying to unload him and his expensive contract somewhere. The […]

Sosa

With Sammy Sosa, you never know if something weird is happening or just normal Sosa antics. We haven’t heard much from him in a long time, but suddenly this picture came out showing him with extra white skin. There was a strong sense that he might be suffering from the same condition as the recently […]

A Fateful Decision 3 Years Ago

About 3 years ago, a big decision stood in front of the Chicago Cubs. They were about to hire a new manager and they had a choice between Joe Girardi and Lou Piniella. Girardi had wanted that job for a long time and was hopeful that he would get it. In the end, the Cubs […]

New Owners

With the sale complete, the first interviews are being conducted with the new owners of the Cubs. We have been waiting for this moment for awhile and now we know a little bit about them. And the big thing that we know is that they aren’t going to be about changing things radically for no […]
