Is Michael Busch Finding His Groove at the Right Time for the Cubs? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the Chicago Cubs' dominant offensive season spearheaded by the likes of Pete Crow-Armstrong and Alex Bregman, Michael Busch's 2026 has flown under the radar. The truth is that Busch is having a down year compared to his 2025 breakout. Last season, the 28-year-old crushed a team-high 34 home runs to go along with his .866 OPS and .523 slugging percentage. This season, he hasn't quite been able to get into that same rhythm. He's slugging just .395, and his hard-hit rate is down nearly 7.5% comp

Read excerpt
The battle for National League MVP is a two-horse race, and it has been for a while now. Both the Chicago Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong and reigning NL MVP Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers have built convincing cases for themselves with a little over a month to go in the regular season. And for the first time this season, Crow-Armstrong is the NL leader in MLB.com's MVP poll, perhaps signifying a shift in mindset from some of those who will have an MVP vote come November.

3 Takeaways After Pete Crow-Armstrong's Walk-Off Blast Lifts Cubs over White Sox (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Evidently, so are the Chicago Cubs, who took a 7-5 series-opening win in walk-off fashion over the Chicago White Sox at Wrigley Field on Monday night. Pete Crow-Armstrong was the man of the hour, crushing his second long ball of the game — and his first big-league walk-off home run — from the leadoff spot in the bottom of the tenth. Nico Hoerner had tied the game at 5 with an RBI single in the ninth, and Jacob Webb escaped a bases-loaded jam in the top of the 10th to set up the win. It was the C
