The Cubs are trending towards being sellers as the trade deadline approaches in a little over a month. Chicago has the 8th highest payroll in MLB but have sunk to the cellar in the NL Central even after signing manager Craig Counsell to a $40 million contract in the offseason. San Francisco has taken the […]
The Cubs are mired in a dire situation – either they don’t produce enough offense to be in a game or they have a hot night at the plate only to turn the game over to their bullpen which inevitably will blow the lead. Scenario two is what happened in Monday’s series opener, as the […]
The Mariners (5-8) likely kissed the ground when their plane landed back in Seattle, because they just had a road trip to forget while going 2-5 in visits to Milwaukee and Toronto. The good news for the M’s is that they do return on a high note following a 6-1 win in Toronto on Wednesday […]
The Cubs (21-26) are just 7-13 in May heading into the last week of the month, but they got the series with the Mets off to the right start with a 7-2 win in the opener at Wrigley Field on Tuesday. New York (25-24) had a five game win streak snapped with the loss, and […]
The Cubs (19-21) limp into Houston after being outscored 27-4 by the Twins the last two games. The Astros (21-19) took two of three from the White Sox in the Windy City this weekend, and now look to at least repeat that – if not aim for the sweep – as they play the other […]
The 2022 Chicago Cubs lost all seven meetings with the Dodgers but the 2023 team has already beat that record with an impressive 8-2 win on Friday night kicking off a West Coast road trip. Chicago aims for two in a row on Saturday night against an L.A. team that has now lost five of […]
The Brewers let the NL Central get away from them last season as the Cardinals made a late surge and ended up winning the division by 7 games. Milwaukee now knows it’s not how you start, rather how you finish but they still want to get things going on the right foot against the Cubs, […]
Philadelphia in the Wild Card Battle It would seem like a great opportunity for Philadelphia to add to their 1.5 game lead over Milwaukee in the wild card matchup heading into the Phillies vs Cubs Tuesday series opener. Philadelphia is kind of stumbling down the stretch with a 3-7 mark over their last 10, but […]
Before Betting on Nationals vs Cubs Aug 9 The Chicago Cubs are on a good stretch at Wrigley Field, winners of three of four on their current home stand. That includes a 6-3 victory on Monday night fueled by Nelson Velazquez and Christopher Morel combining to 5-8 with 2 HRs. Chicago has a great chance […]
Before Betting on Cubs vs Cardinals Aug 2 With the trade deadline looming at 6PM ET on Tuesday, it will be interesting to see if the St. Louis Cardinals can put together a package to acquire Juan Soto from Washington as they’ve been rumored to the past couple weeks. Obviously Soto wouldn’t be able to […]
