Cubs GM Jed Hoyer announced on Monday that the Jason Heyward era in Chicago is coming to an end (finally). The Cubs plan on releasing the veteran outfielder at the end of this season. How much of this decision has to do with the Cubs adding former Guardians slugger Franmil Reyes? Join Luke, Cody, and Ryan as they preview tonight’s…
The Cubs completed their first sweep of the season as they beat the Phillies 4-3 in Philly. Nelson Velazquez hit another homer, the Drew Smyly completed his best start of the season, and the Cubs bullpen held it all together win their fourth straight game overall. Luke, Jared, Ryan, and Cody break it down after their live watch along. YouTube…
It was "a dream come true" when Nelson Velazquez woke up to a call on Sunday that he was being promoted from Triple-A Iowa to the Chicago Cubs.
That's a moment he'll never forget, and a moment that he'll get to enjoy for a while with his "bestie," Christopher Morel.
Happy Monday, dear readers. Hope everyone has some eventful Memorial Day festivities planned.
I'll be out at the Friendly Confines, where the Cubs will host the Brewers for a split doubleheader to kick off a four-game series. Originally, it was supposed to be a regular three-game set, but remember that rainout on the first Friday of the year? This is the day they decided to reschedule the game on. At the time, I didn't consider what the upcoming stretch would look like with another game added into the mix, but now I can see how rough of a stretch it's going to be.
I can tell you why here, or I can tell you to keep on reading to find out. Personally, I think the second option is best, because there are some other news, notes and nuggets (including an appearance from my more serious side) that you'll want to take a peak at.
Let's get into it. Here are your Monday morning Cubs thoughts for May 30.
