2026 Cubs Playoff Heroes and Goats: Nico Hoerner is the Superhero vs. the Padres (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Cubs season comes to an end in a 4-1 loss to the Padres. And just like that, the season comes to an end with barely a whimper. Over two days, the Cubs looked completely and totally over matched. If you’re a decades long Cubs fan, you’ve seen this before. There were exceptions along the way in the playoff era, but generally the Cubs have a really good season, then get trashed in the playoffs. Here’s the thing though. The Red Sox? Got trashed. The Astros? Showed some fight against the White So

The Cubs run into a buzzsaw in an 8-0 loss in the playoff opener. This is the kind of thing I was talking about down the stretch. I felt the Cubs wouldn’t be backed down or awed by the situation. This is an experienced club. At the end of the day, this didn’t come down to injured pitchers or one eyed third basemen. It didn’t come down to one team scuffling a bit or another one that is on a major role. It came down to exactly one scenario. The Cubs needed to have a pitcher good enough to shove fo

The Cubs win 6-2 over the Red Sox in Tampa and there’s a dramatic finish for the 2026 Rizzo Award. Sunday was a Game 162 that will have an enhanced footnote in Cub history. Games in Japan. Games in England. A game against the Astros in Milwaukee and now a game against the Red Sox in Tampa. It hits a little different when the game has a footprint that steps outside of the normal unending march of baseball games that make up a season. Somewhere on Twitter I occasionally see the posts of someone wh
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Miguel Amaya and David Peterson are the Superheroes vs. the Red Sox (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two games, one result. The Cubs get swept by the Red Sox, 4-3 and 2-0. The same story we’ve been seeing played out. With the wind howling in, the Cubs couldn’t hit the ball out of the park. The Cubs lost two games. The Cubs last won a game in which they didn’t homer on July 30 against the Cardinals. Fortunately, the team hits a lot of homers, because they have become a team that must have them. It’s been frustrating to watch the pitching be pretty good but the Cubs losing most of their games any
2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Matthew Boyd was the Superhero vs. the Marlins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cubs beat Marlins 2-1 to clinch playoff berth as PCA goes 45/40. Did anything of note happen at Wrigley Field on Thursday afternoon? On a day that looked absolutely beautiful and at a generally pleasant time of the year to be at the Friendly Confines, I hope a few of you were there for this one. For anyone who was, I’m genuinely jealous. I’ve spent many days and many nights in that park and have almost universally loved my time there. I’ll forever miss it. It started with Pete Crow-Armstrong wal
