MILWAUKEE — A high-scoring affair at American Family Field on Saturday saw the Cubs pull out a 10-6 win over the National League Central champion Brewers. A win that ended up not meaning much of anything. If the Cubs had any real control left over their postseason fate with one game left in the regular season, this win would’ve felt…
Here it is, the biggest two-game stretch of the season for the Cubs. All that matters is that, if they can’t take these last two games in Milwaukee after dropping the series opener in extra innings, it’s impossible for the Cubs to make the postseason. That’s a steep fall from where they were three weeks ago, but that’s the situation…
MILWAUKEE — The 2023 season isn’t over for the Cubs (82-78), but that’s mostly just because math says it isn’t. Because of the way the last few weeks have gone, and because of the distance between the Cubs and the teams they’re fighting against to reach the postseason, only a minuscule amount of hope really remains that they can complete…
In Atlanta, the Cubs suffered just a back-breaking sweep at the hands of the Braves. There’s no other way to spin it. They really couldn’t afford to drop all three games, even against the current top seed in Major League Baseball, but that’s what happened. And now, they hit the road to end the season against the team at the…
That’s now two potential wins the Cubs have squandered in the late innings in Atlanta. Two wins that would currently have them in playoff position. Instead, they’d be on the outside looking in if the season ended Wednesday. Four games remain, but the Cubs’ chances of making the postseason have fallen with every loss. Things won’t get any easier, either,…
That was absolutely not how Seiya Suzuki and the Cubs thought the eighth inning Tuesday night was going to end. For a second, it looked like Drew Smyly would escape a jam when the Braves’ Sean Murphy hit a routine fly ball to the outfield. Suzuki was ready for the catch, but he later told reporters in Atlanta he momentarily…
Here it is, the final week of the regular season for the Cubs. If they can finish the year strong, they may very well find themselves playing beyond Sunday. No need to think about what’s going on with the other playoff contenders; just take care of your own business over these last six games. Not that that’ll be easy. They’ve…
What a way for the Cubs to end the last homestand of the regular season. Behind another comeback victory, the Cubs got the ‘W’ in their final scheduled game at Wrigley Field this season and completed a sweep of the Rockies. They clinched a winning record for the seventh time in the last nine years, and with control of their…
At this point in the season for the Cubs, the cliche is as true as ever — a win is a win. It wasn’t always pretty, but with the help of a couple of lesser-known heroes, the Cubs rallied to beat the Rockies and take the series with a win over Colorado on Saturday. They enter Sunday with a chance…
The Cubs got back in the win column after blanking the Rockies in the series opener Friday afternoon. And with the help of some other teams around the league, they enter Saturday with sole possession of the last National League Wild Card spot. It’s a positive step after a tough start to the homestand. The end of the season isn’t…
