The Chicago Cubs responded in a major way, scoring 6 runs in the 1st and chasing Framber Valdez. The party started with Pete Crow-Armstrong and Carson Kelly getting things rolling, David Peterson was very good and the Detroit Tigers are a disgrace to baseball.

It looked ugly again and then the Chicago Cubs rallied in the bottom of the 9th inning to walk off the Athletics!! Pete Crow-Armstrong makes up for a big blunder in a huge way and Dansby Swanson FINALLY came through for the team

The Chicago Cubs lose to the Athletics in extras by a score of 5-4. Pete Crow-Armstrong and Seiya Suzuki both went deep but some soft contact for Colin Rea and a bad inning for Caleb Theilbar leads to the Cubs loss.

Pete Crow-Armstrong & Nico Hoerner started the game hot with back to back singles and Alex Bregman drove in the Chicago Cubs only run of the game before the lineup went totally silent. Jameson Taillon gave up another HR but was plenty good enough to give his team a chance to win.

The first ending was very on brand for the Chicago Cubs with a great opportunity after Nico Hoerner and Pete Crow-Armstrong got on and doing nothing, and then Jordan Wicks giving up 2 runs right away in the bottom of the 1st. The mess of the month ends with a 5-1 loss for Craig Counsell's squad.

Ian Happ tied the game 1-1 with a blast and then Carson Kelly hit a 3 run HR off the bench, as Craig Counsell is pushing the right buttons to give the Chicago Cubs a 4-2 win. Jameson Taillon was excellent and Ben Brown battled through some bad defense to help the Cubs out in a big way.

Nico Hoerner had another massive day of 3 hits, 5 RBIs and a 400-foot HR for the Chicago Cubs in their win over the Phillies. Matt Shaw and Dansby Swanson each joined the party with 6 total hits of their own. Shota Imanaga was fantastic going 6 with 11 K's and PCA is showing more signs of life!

Alex Bregman, Nico Hoerner and Carson Kelly all have 3 RBI days for the Chicago Cubs in their 10-4 win over the Phillies. Craig Counsell's strategy of using Riley Martin as an opener into Colin Rea works out great. Pete Crow-Armstrong got on base 3 times, but Seiya Suzuki is off to bumpy start since his return.

The Chicago Cubs and Javier Assad get lit up by the Philadelphia Phillies and lose 13-7. Craig Counsell's team continues to play below average baseball. Concerned about Pete Crow-Armstrong at this point in the season? Dansby Swanson is swinging it well but that's really the only positive from this loss.

Jameson Taillon put the Chicago Cubs down big early, but elite base running from Dansby Swanson, great managing from Craig Counsell and a walk-off single from Carson Kelly gives the Chicago Cubs the 7-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Edward Cabrera did not have his best stuff, Caleb Theilbar had a brutal throwing error and the team is 1-23 with RISP in the 2 games of this series. Michael Busch also struggling mightily for this struggling lineup.

Javier Assad was excellent in the Chicago Cubs first official start without Cade Horton. Pete Crow-Armstrong hit his first homer of the season, Alex Bregman had 3 hits, and Nico Hoerner comes through as always with RISP and the Cubs win 9-2. Phil Maton really the only negative of this victory. What's the plan without Cade?

NL Central fans brace for a fierce division shakeup as the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers emerge as top contenders, but can the Brewers' magic withstand off-season losses yet again? JD Hafron leads a lively debate with Chuck Freimund, Sam Olbur, Jeff Carr, and Gary Morgan, unpacking whether additions like Alex Bregman and Eugenio Suárez will reshape the Cubs and Reds' championship odds, and if the Pirates’ youth movement vaults them into playoff relevance.
Key storylines include over/under win total predictions, star power candidates like Paul Skenes and Elly De La Cruz, bold rookie picks, and expert analysis on the division’s deepest rotations and riskiest moves. Will Craig Counsell's Cubs live up to the hype, or will Milwaukee’s relentless approach prevail? Hear the hosts’ bold playoff calls and divisional X-factors as the race for the NL Central crown heats up.

The Cubs lose their sixth game in a row following a 7-1 defeat to the Orioles. Justin Steele pitched to the tune of a quality start, but the line is pretty much drawn from there as the North Siders were mediocre in all other areas. The Cubs next enter a four-game series against the Mets to close out the first half of the season. Plus, Willson Contreras is sure to be on the move by the trade deadline. What type of value could he draw and where are the potential landing spots? LEAVE US A VOICEMAIL OR SEND US A TEXT: 312-834-4634

Thanks to PJ Higgins go-ahead RBI double in the 9th, the Cubs defeated the Brewers on Wednesday to win 2 out of 3. That is 8 wins out of the last 12 games for the Cubs including 4 straight series victories. Up next for the Cubs is the Dodgers, and Marcus Stroman among others may be returning as soon as this weekend in Los Angeles. Plus, Ian Happ is playing well this season and is signed through 2023, but could he be traded as his value continues to increase? LEAVE US A VOICEMAIL OR SEND US A TEXT: 312-834-4634

The Cubs throttle the Brewers 8-3 as Seiya Suzuki again is the star in only his second game since returning from the IL. Plus, Carlos Correa says he doesn't want to be a part of a rebuild. What does that mean for the Cubs in anticipation of them being active in the shortstop market this off-season? Perhaps Xander Bogaerts is more likely, especially since there was a report recently about the Cubs being the likely landing spot for the current Red Sox player.

Former Chicago Cubs hurler Jake Arrieta has officially announced his retirement. He arguably had the greatest single season ever by a Cubs pitcher in 2015, however can he be considered an all-time Cubs great?
Wade Miley, Alec Mills and Andrelton Simmons are all on the cusp of returning to Big League action. When can we expect to see them suit up?
The Cubs offense has been VERY good early in this 2022 season; however, they have done something VERY bad that could turn into a Major League record. What is it?! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Major League Baseball is now permitting its teams to use a digital pitch calling device, PitchCom, on the field. This will eliminate the traditional finger signals between catcher and pitcher. Some clubs are all for this technology, such as the Tampa Rays and Colorado Rockies, yet can we say the same for the Chicago Cubs? It shows an effort to speed up pace of play and eliminate sign stealing, however will it work? The device itself will signal pitch and location from the catcher's "digital" wristband right into a receiver in the pitcher's ear on the mound. Does this compromise the integrity of the game? We currently have no official word as to whether or not the Chicago Cubs will engage in this technology. What is your favorite Wrigleyville bar? We start Part 1 of a multi episode segment that highlights 46 different haunts in the Wrigleyville neighborhood to frequent before or after your next Cubs game at Wrigley Field.

The Cubs need their offense to carry them to wins this season and so far it is failed to answer that call, but if the current pitching performances are an indication for anything - it's clear the Cubs need their offense to be much better to win this division. We name Willson Contreras the Locked On Cubs Player of the Week after a four-homer week and discuss how crucial his bat will be going forward for the Cubs. And finally, we learned that Javier Baez reportedly turned down an extension worth $180 mil, which already looks like a mistake on Baez' part after a rough start to his 2021 season.

The Cubs came into the their three-game set with the Brewers playing well, but they didn't play so well on Monday night. Cole Hamels had another solid game, but the offense couldn't hit Zach Davies in his return from the DL and several small errors doomed this game. The Cubs lost, 4-3. Sean Sears and I talked about that, today's game, and a crucial decision by Kris Bryant on the last play of the game. In the second segment, we talked more about Hamels vs. Davies and some comments from Hamels that were ... interesting.

The Cubs had a short layover in Atlanta on their way to Philadelphia, and they picked up a win against the Braves. Mike Montgomery was excellent for the first few innings but ran out of gas in the fifth, giving up four earned runs in 4 1/3 innings with six strikeouts. The Cubs' bullpen -- even Brandon Kintzler! -- combined to shut the Braves down the rest of the way, and Chicago pulled off a 5-4 victory. Sean Sears and I talked about that in the first segment, then looked ahead at tonight's game against the Phillies. In the second segment, we talked about a variety of little topics: The Bobby Wilson trade, Kris Bryant, Terrence Gore, and Jason Heyward's hamstring injury. To finish things out, we talked about the NL Central and updated the standings. I even did some math to explain just how hot the Cardinals would have to finish the 2018 season to win the division.

The Cubs finished out a win in their suspended game from Tuesday, but lost the highly anticipated Jason Vargas and Alec Mills matchup. The Mets jumped on Mills early with a first inning grand slam and won the game, 10-3. Sean Sears and I talked about that, plus whether or not Mills might get another start. We also gave a quick Kris Bryant update in the first segment and reminisced about a special Cubs anniversary. In the second segment, we talked about Brandon Kintzler. Wow. He is pretty, pretty, pretty bad. But in addition, could there be one open bullpen spot for a potential postseason run? In the final segment, we updated the NL Central standings and talked about Josh Donaldson going on waivers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs played the Mets last night, and the pitching matchup of Cole Hamels and Jacob deGrom did not disappoint. Unfortunately, rained washed out the 1-1 tie in the top of the 10th and caused the game to be suspended. The two teams will finish out the game today at 12:00 pm CST, with today's game to follow at 1:20 pm (or 45 minutes later). Sean Sears and I previewed the pitching matchup. In the second segment, we talked about Kris Bryant's rehab at Triple-A and pulled a few interesting quotes from Bryant via the Des Moines Register's Tommy Birch. In the final segment, we updated the standings (for now) and looked at the Brewers' woeful pitching situation. I finished things out by unfairly quizzing Sean about games from before he hit puberty.

The Cubs swept the Reds in a four-game series at home for the first time since 1945. That seems noteworthy. Sean Sears and I discussed what went well in their last few games, including a lot about the pitching. Alec Mills was outstanding in his first big league start, and the Cubs are going to give him another shot in the rotation. In the second segment, we gave some injury updates on Kris Bryant, Brandon Morrow, and others. The Cubs could be in really good shape once September starts, if all goes as planned. Later in the second segment, we talked about a handful of pitching prospects that have really stepped up and played well this year in the minors. So much so, that dare I say the Cubs have more pitching prospect depth than positional depth? In the final segment, we updated the standings and issued a minor correction from a previous podcast.

The Cubs got a complete game performance from Cole Hamels in their 7-1 win over the Reds on Thursday night. I went solo on this episode of Locked On Cubs to talk about that, Javy Báez's big homer, and much more. I recapped the game in the first segment before looking ahead to today's matchup and reminiscing about great Cubs mid-season deals of the past. In the second segment, I looked at that great Báez homer and had some fun with audio of great and memorable home runs of Wrigley Field history. In the final segment, I briefly looked at the NL Central standings and the important games Friday night. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
It's mostly good news for today's episode of Locked On Cubs! The Cubs won 8-2 over the Tigers on Wednesday night, getting a solid start from Jon Lester and three home runs from the offense -- two of which happened with runners on base. Sean Sears and I talked about that before previewing tonight's game against the Cincinnati Reds. After the Reds the Cubs will play the Mets next week, but could this stretch be tougher than it appears? In the second segment, we discussed a few items of note from Jed Hoyer's recent appearance on 670 The Score in Chicago, a little about Duane Underwood, and answered a question from a listener. In the final segment we discussed the NL Central, Brandon Morrow falling into the Springfield Myster Spot, and just about anything else that popped into our heads. Learn more about your ad choices.

First things first, the Cubs lost again on Tuesday night -- their third in a row. The offense hit a solo homer, as per usual, and Kyle Hendricks tossed a solid seven innings in the 2-1 Tigers win. Sean Sears and I talked about that in the first segment before breaking down the big news: Daniel Murphy is now a Cub. For baseball reasons, there is a lot to be happy about with this trade. For other reasons, there is a lot to be unhappy about. We went in depth on both. In the second segment, we talked about the expected but still disappointing news on Yu Darvish being shut down for the rest of the year. In addition, we pontificated on who may be starting in Mike Montgomery's spot on Friday against the Reds -- maybe Montgomery, himself? In the final segment, we looked at the NL Central standings and expressed our inherent fear of the Cardinals. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Monday was the Cubs' last off-day for a while, so today's podcast is another question and answer type of thing. Sean Sears took this one on his own, first looking at tonight's pitching matchup with the Tigers. Kyle Hendricks is on the mound for the Cubs against veteran right-hander Jordan Zimmermann. From there, Sean fielded questions about Yu Darvish and what a miracle return might look like, the trade value of Addison Russell, and what the team's Achilles heel might be in the postseason (should they qualify). Thanks for the great questions, everyone! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs split with the Pittsburgh Pirates over the weekend, and really that's the good news. The offense mustered just one run in each game, and the Cubs won the first two games of the series 1-0. Sean Sears and I talked about the series and we previewed tomorrow's game against the Detroit Tigers in the first segment. In the second segment, we went over the bad news on Yu Darvish and talked about what options the Cubs may have remaining. Later, we discussed Addison Russell's injury and why the Cubs are so reluctant to use the 10-day DL. In the final segment, we did a rundown of the NL Central and talked briefly about how the Cubs will fill Mike Montgomery's shoes in his next rotation turn now that he's on the disabled list.

The Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 1-0 on Thursday night, thanks to an Ian Happ home run and an excellent performance from Jon Lester. To be honest, he really needed that. Maybe we really needed to see it too. I went solo for this podcast, since Sean Sears disappeared on me. I previewed tonight's game in segment one, followed by a question from a listener on Cole Hamels. Should the Cubs pick up his option for 2019? In the second segment, I discussed Lester's start and decided which teams I think would be bad for the Cubs to face in either the NLDS or the wild card game. In the final segment, I recapped the action of the NL Central yesterday and updated the standings. If you're interested in my story on Bryce Harper and the Cubs for Bet Chicago, you can click here.

The Cubs beat the Brewers 8-4 on Wednesday, splitting their two-game set and keeping Milwaukee at three games back. But they're not the only team in the NL Central that the Cubs have to worry about these days. Sean Sears and I recapped the game, looked ahead to tonight's game in Pittsburgh, and chatted a little about Kyle Hendricks and Jon Lester going in opposite directions. In the second segment, we talked about Steve Cishek and how he is the MVP of the bullpen. Might he be the guy Joe Maddon uses to go multiple innings in the postseason this year? In the final segment, we recapped the NL Central and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Can we get a do-over? Jose Quintana gave up a homer to Lorenzo Cain on pitch No. 2 of the ballgame yesterday, and that was it. He allowed a couple more home runs to Ryan Braun for good measure, and the Cubs lost 7-0. But first, Sean Sears and I talked about Anthony Rizzo and moving back down in the lineup. Then we looked at Quintana and some of his pitch usage changes and gave another update on Yu Darvish. In the final segment, we looked around the NL Central and chatted more about those pesky St. Louis Cardinals. We have a contest winner! Be sure to listen to the end to find out details.

Since the Cubs were off again yesterday, Sean Sears and I fielded a few more questions from the listeners on today's podcast. But first, we looked ahead to today's pitching matchup between the Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers. Who has the advantage? After that, we looked at how the Cubs might be able to rest in September. In the second segment, we took questions regarding bat flips and Kris Bryant's return from the DL. Last, we looked at yesterday's games in the NL Central, discussed the suddenly dangerous Cardinals, and learned a little about architecture. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs beat the Washington Nationals on Sunday night, winning 4-3 with a dramatic, walk-off grand slam from superstar third baseman David Bote (audio courtesy of WSCR and Randall Sanders on Twitter). Max Scherzer and Cole Hamels were the big story of this game, going pitch-for-pitch against each other and treating fans to an outstanding duel. Sean Sears and I discussed Hamels in the first segment. In our second segment, we looked at Bote and his historic slam. With Kris Bryant still without a timetable for his return, could Bote be pushing his way into the everyday lineup? What could that mean for the struggling Addison Russell right now, and then again when Bryant does return? In the final segment, we looked at the NL Central and talked about the suddenly red-hot Cardinals. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
With the Cubs off on Thursday, Kelly Wallace of Expanded Roster sat in for Sean Sears on this Friday podcast to help me with the mailbag. First, we looked ahead at today's game with the Washington Nationals and discussed a roster move. Does Jorge De La Rosa have anything left to offer? In the second segment, we went head-first into questions about Jim Hickey, pitching development, and more. In the final segment, we looked around the NL Central -- including a satisfying Brewers loss -- before answering a question about Addison Russell's power. We finished with a question about hot dog condiments, and Kelly shared an awful pizza opinion. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs finished out their series with the Royals on Wednesday night, and the good news is that they took 2-of-3. The bad news, however, is that they lost 9-0 last night and got outscored 10-8 in the three-game series after being outscored 24-17 by the Padres in that four-game set. This team is not trending in the right direction heading into their next five games against the Washington Nationals and Milwaukee Brewers. Sean Sears and I broke it all down in the first segment. In our second segment, however, Sean and I discussed some positive news on Yu Darvish and Brandon Morrow. They still have no timeline on either pitcher, but it's easy to set up in your mind how Darvish is back on the mound for the Cubs at the beginning of September. On the downside, there's no news on Kris Bryant. Also, we struggled to find nice things to say about Addison Russell other than his range at shortstop.

The Cubs won another game in Kansas City, beating the Royals 5-0 in the second game of the series behind a strong effort from Mike Montgomery and another great day at the plate by David Bote. In the first segment, however, we talked about tonight's starter, Jose Quintana, and his importance to the team going forward. In the second segment, we got back to Bote and his unexpected rise to prominence. It even reminds me of another successful NL Central team that is known for pulling quality players from the late rounds of the draft. In the final segment, Sean Sears and I quickly took a look at the NL Central standings before discussing a pair of videos I found after looking back on our Angel Hernandez conversation. The first is related to that famous 2001 game featuring Steve McMichael's ejection, while the second, well ... just check it out on your own. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs beat the Royals on Monday night, gaining a half-game in the standings over the idle Brewers. That's the good news, but the bad news is that they weren't able to get much going offensively against Jakob Junis. A home run in the sixth inning by Javy Báez broke a tie, and a strong effort from Cole Hamels allowed the Cubs to cruise to a 3-1 win. Sean Sears and I discussed the inconsistent offense in our first segment. In the second segment, we looked at how the guys who have been carrying the team recently are the ones on the wrong side of 30. In our final segment, we chatted about the NL Central, updated the standings, and discussed some of our dream World Series matchups. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs split with the San Diego Padres this weekend, and oh boy was that not fun. They were outscored 24-17 in the series and now head to Kansas City to take on the Royals -- who may in fact be the worst team in baseball right now. After talking about the Padres series and the fans in our mentions on Twitter in segment one, we moved on to Royals chat in our second segment. We also talked a bit about Kris Bryant's injury and why it has us on edge before moving on to the final segment, where we looked around the NL Central. Good news! The Brewers will have to fend off the powerhouse Padres for the next three days. This certainly will go well for the Cubs! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
After my proclamation that the Cubs needed to go at least 5-2 over their seven game stretch against the San Diego Padres and Kansas City Royals, they kicked things off by dropping the first game, 6-1. Sean Sears and I discussed that, today's game, and more in our first segment. Brandon Morrow picked up a baseball and threw some "pitches" yesterday, but not much else has changed on that front. In segment two, we took Joe Maddon to task for a decision both of us find to be indefensible. How do you pull Mike Montgomery after 5 1/3 innings and 79 pitches if you let him bat in a crucial spot the inning prior? In the final segment, we looked around the NL Central and spent a few extra minutes bemoaning Thursday night's loss to the Padres. Can't the Cubs just start a run of consistent, good baseball? Please? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs won in Pittsburgh last night, and Cole Hamels was impressive in his debut. Sean Sears and I talked about that game, why it was important, and why it's even more important that the Cubs perform well over the next week. In the second segment, we took a look at the MVP candidacy of Javier Báez. Where does he fall in the rankings? Who are the favorites, as of right now? In the final segment, we talked a little about the NL Central standings and discussed an MLB poll regarding the National League MVP race. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs lost a frustrating game last night, with Addison Russell being called out at third base via replay. That took the potential tying run off the bases in the ninth inning, and the Cubs lost 5-4 to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Cole Hamels makes his Cubs debut tonight, but the even worse news is that the Cubs and Brewers are now tied in first place. Sean Sears and I play the wet blanket in our outlook on how the rest of the season could play out. In the second segment, we talked about the good news of the day: The Brandon Kintzler trade and a positive injury update on Yu Darvish. In the final segment, we updated the standings and chatted about the upgrades the Brewers made to their roster. This could be a tough battle to the very end, and that's not good for the Cubs' World Series hopes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
I'm back with Sean Sears for this Tuesday edition of Locked On Cubs, after both of us slept through our Monday recording time. We talked about the events of the weekend, including Kyle Hendricks' excellent start on Sunday, some Yu Darvish chatter, and the Cole Hamels deal. Was Alex Rodriguez off base with what he said about Darvish on ESPN Sunday night? In the second segment, we looked at the rumors surrounding the Cubs at the trade deadline. They've been said to be looking for a controllable starting pitcher, but how realistic is that? About as realistic as trading for Bryce Harper -- who also happens to be available. In the final segment, we quickly updated the standings in the NL Central. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Sean brings on fellow Locked On podcaster Matt Peck from Locked on Bulls who was at the Cubs epic walkoff win at Wrigley Field Thursday afternoon.

The good news, which we start with in our first segment, is that the Cubs beat the D-Backs behind a strong effort from Jon Lester on Wednesday. Sean Sears and I break down why the start from Lester was so encouraging, and we look ahead at the series finale with Tyler Chatwood on the mound. But in the second segment, we react in real-time to the news of the day: Kris Bryant is headed back to the disabled list. In addition to Bryant talk, we chat about David Bote and possible trade targets that remain for the Cubs. Could they trade for a starter and a reliever from the same team? (We mention Seung-Hwan Oh as a possible target in the second segment, but later confirm that he was traded on Wednesday). In the final segment, we looked around the NL Central and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks yet again last night, this time being shut down by Clay Buchholz -- yes, him. Sean Sears and I break that down in the first segment and talk a little bit about what has truly ailed the Cubs, which is their starting pitching and the Kris Bryant shoulder injury mismanagement. In the second segment, we played around with trade proposals from the listeners via Twitter: "Who Say's No?" Without spoiling anything, most of these trades were a bit light on the Cubs' end of things. But still a lot of fun conversation! Sean and I finished out the third segment by talking about yesterday's action in the NL Central and updating the standings (apologies for the occasional audio problem, it gets better).

The bad news is that Monday night's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks was over before the Cubs even came to the plate. But the good news, if you can call it that, is that Joe Maddon had a little fun with Anthony Rizzo -- who made his pitching debut in the ninth inning. Sean Sears and I looked back on what went wrong for the Cubs in the first segment. In the second segment, we took a deeper dive into the phenomenon of position players pitching. Is it a good idea and could it expand even further? In the final segment, Sean and I looked at the NL Central and recapped a rough loss for the St. Louis Cardinals. Learn more about your ad choices.

I was unable to be on this episode of Locked On Cubs, so Sean Sears graciously took care of this one on his own. First off, he looked back on the five-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals and shared some of his experiences from the ballpark. Later, he went into detail on the kind of trade he thinks would be good for the Cubs to strengthen their roster. Finally, Sean previewed the series with the Arizona Diamondbacks that begins tonight and took a look around the NL Central. Spoiler alert: The Cubs have a 3.5 game lead and the Cardinals dropped into fourth-place. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of their five-game series on Thursday night, rallying from an early deficit to win 9-6. In the first segment, I looked back on that game for a brief moment and previewed the pitching matchup in Friday's game. In the second segment, Evan Altman of Cubs Insider joined me to talk more in depth about Thurdsay's victory, the Cardinals, Jason Heyward, and several other pertinent topics. In the final segment, we fielded a question from a listener -- that we pretty loosely answered -- and talked about a new addition to the bullpen.

The Cubs are back in action today, taking on the St. Louis Cardinals and their new manager, Mike Shildt. Sean Sears and I previewed the game, which Sean will be attending as credentialed media for the first time. The game will feature Kyle Hendricks against Carlos Martinez. In the second segment, we looked at a piece Jesse Rogers wrote for ESPN that tried to pinpoint what a Cubs trade for Jacob deGrom might look like. Is it more favorable than we originally thought? Given this new information, we came to the conclusion that the Cubs are definitely, 100% trading for deGrom. No question, done deal. In the final segment, we briefly discussed the results of a poll from the @LockedOnCubs Twitter account and I made puns relating to Brad Hand's name. Learn more about your ad choices.

The All-Star Game is over, with the American League beating the National League 8-6. Javy Baez got a hit off Chris Sale, and Willson Contreras hit a solo homer. Sean and I briefly discuss the game, as well as Josh Hader's rough night, before going into some trade deadline discussion in the second segment (based on this story I wrote for Bet Chicago). In the final segment, Sean and I fielded a question from a listener regarding Victor Caratini and his future with the team. Will the Cubs go out and get a veteran backup catcher?

The Home Run Derby did not disappoint. Javy Baez hit 16 home runs in the first round, but was out-dueled by Max Muncy of the Dodgers. Kyle Schwarber, however, put on a show that Cubs fans won't soon forget. Sean Sears and I broke it down in the first segment, and then looked ahead to Tuesday night's All-Star game. In the second segment, we talked more about the final round between Schwarber and Bryce Harper and entertained conspiracy theories. And in our final segment, Sean and I shared our top-3 moments from the first half of the season. No doubt, lots of mentions of Baez and the resurgent Jason Heyward. Learn more about your ad choices.

Sean Sears took on Episode 104 all by himself, looking back on the excellent weekend that was for the Cubs. Thanks to the hapless Padres and suddenly hot Pirates, the Cubbies have a 2.5 game lead in the NL Central on the Milwaukee Brewers at the All-Star break. Sean breaks down the Cubs' sweep over the Padres in the first segment. In the second segment, he looked ahead and Javy Baez and Kyle Schwarber in the Home Run Derby, as well as Baez and Willson Contreras taking part in the All-Star Game on Tuesday night.

The Cubs were off yesterday, but they still managed to gain a half game on the Brewers thanks to some help from the Pirates. Tonight, the Cubs begin the last series of the first half with a 9:10 pm CST start against the San Diego Padres. Sean Sears and I looked at the pitching matchup, as well as the dreadful Padres offense. We also added more to yesterday's conversation around Brandon Morrow, and in the second segment we discussed possible trade deadline ideas and a strong game at Triple-A by an old friend. In the final segment, we looked at the one NL Central game from yesterday and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs lost to the Giants on Wednesday, and once again it was in walk-off fashion in extra innings. Mike Montgomery gave up four runs in the first inning, and the Cubs never fully recovered despite rallying behind homers from Jason Heyward, Javy Baez, and the freshly-returned Kris Bryant. But despite all of that, the Cubs tossed a whole lot of scoreless innings in the game -- which leads us into some bullpen chatter. Not only have the bullpen innings been really spaced out in recent weeks for the Cubs, the Milwaukee Brewers have really abused their best relievers this year.

The Cubs beat the Giants last night, 2-0. That comes in large part due to a great start from Jose Quintana, who obviously heard us griping about his nibbling on yesterday's podcast. In the first segment, we talked a little about Q before looking ahead to today's rubber-match with the Giants and chatting about Mike Montgomery. In the second segment, Sean and I reminisced about Home Run Derby's of the past and looked ahead to this year's competition. Hint: Two Cubs will be taking part, and we're really excited about it. In the final segment, we looked at Tueday's action in the NL Central -- including a comeback for the ages and a big grand slam for a beloved former Cub. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs lost to the San Francisco Giants late on Monday night, 2-1 in 11 innings. But the good news is that Kyle Hendricks pitched really well, harkening us back to the days of 2016 with his 89-mph fastball and slick changeup combination. In tonight's game, Jose Quintana will try to right the ship a little bit. I welcomed Sean Sears to the podcast to chat a little about Quintana's biggest problem so far this season. In the second segment, we discussed Hendricks and his game before looking ahead to the return of Kris Bryant and the weird way that the Cubs have been dishonest about his injury. In the final segment, we looked around the NL Central and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The 2018 All-Stars have been announced, and three Cubs have made the team. It shouldn't be much of a shock that Javy Baez, Willson Contreras, and Jon Lester will be representing the team. But were there other players with a case to be made? Maybe even a snub? Kelly Wallace joins me in the second segment to discuss, plus more Cubs chat. But I kick things off by recapping the action over the weekend against the Cincinnati Reds, and then previewing tonight's game against the San Francisco Giants. In the final segment, I went around the NL Central and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In the latest episode of Locked On Cubs, I welcomed my good friend Evan Altman of Cubs Insider to discuss the Dexter Fowler drama. Fowler spoke about his happiness with the Cardinals, while Mark Saxon of The Athletic wrote an interesting story that includes some notable new information. We broke down all of that in the second segment, and later we also discussed the best MLB rivalries. Other than that, I looked ahead at today's matchup with the Cincinnati Reds and how the schedule shakes out leading up to and beyond the All-Star break. In the final segment, I looked around the NL Central and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Happy Fourth of July, everyone! The Cubs won their game with the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday, and I briefly recapped that in the first segment. After looking ahead at their matchup today, which begins at 1:20 pm CST, I welcomed Locked On Cubs contributor Tom Usiak to the podcast. We chatted a little about a recent story he wrote on catcher Miguel Amaya (which you can read here), as well as other matters of the minors. In the final segment, I did the usual Around the NL Central and updated the standings. The Cardinals seem to be falling out of the division race, so is this going to be a two-team fight to the end between the Cubs and Brewers? It certainly seems that way.

I welcomed Sean Sears to the podcast for Episode 96, and in the interest of keeping Locked On Cubs more regular he's going to be a more frequent contributor. We started out by talking about the Cubs' matchup with the Detroit Tigers, featuring Kyle Hendricks against Michael Fulmer at 1:20 pm CST. In the second segment, we turned to St. Louis and discussed John Mozeliak's unfortunate comments about Dexter Fowler. Finally, we briefly recapped what happened yesterday in the NL Central, what the standings are heading into action on Tuesday, and a look at how each of us expect the top three teams in the division will finish the year.

The Cubs have scored 10 or more runs in four straight games, and amazingly, they're on a four-game winning streak. How about that? Included in the streak is a weekend sweep of the Minnesota Twins, which I recapped briefly in the first segment. In the second segment, I looked at a big international free agent signing (courtesy of Todd Johnson at Cubs Insider) and answered a few questions from the listeners. Is Albert Almora Jr. having the most underrated season thus far? Finally, I did the usual Around the NL Central segment and updated the standings. Things are finally starting to shake out how many of us thought they would. But will the Brewers stick with the Cubs all the way to the end? Could we see these two teams battling in the NLDS?

The Cubs beat the Dodgers in the finale of their road trip, finishing 2-2 in Los Angeles and 4-3 against the Dodgers overall this season. They broke out the lumber in the late innings after Clayton Kershaw left the game, dropping 10 runs on the Dodgers' bullpen. The Cubs return home today to take on the Minnesota Twins in a three-game set, and Mike Montgomery will start against Jose Berrios. Speaking of starting pitchers, the Cubs got some less-than-exciting news on Yu Darvish, which I discussed in the second segment. Could the team be looking at trading for a starting pitcher for a second-half push? If you think Jacob deGrom is headed to Chicago, I have some sad news for you: You're dreaming. I finished with the usual Around the NL Central segment to close things out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs finally won a game! It must've been related to the return of Locked On Cubs. Right? Anyway, they beat the Los Angeles Dodgers behind the left arm of Jon Lester and the hot bat of Javier Baez. After looking ahead to tonight's pitching matchup, I looked at the season Baez is having offensively and made a few comparisons to show just what kind of rare air we're talking about. Later in the segment, I looked at Brian Duensing and his performance this year. Spoiler alert: He has been really bad. In the final segment, I did the usual around the NL Central and updated the standings. Those Reds just keep sneaking up on the Pirates! Learn more about your ad choices.

After a brief hiatus (which I explain), I'm back with Episode 92 of Locked On Cubs. The Cubs have had a rough go of it lately, losing five straight games -- most of which were extremely winnable. Duane Underwood Jr. made his big league debut on Monday night, and overall he pitched pretty well against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be enough for win. The big news of the day was that Yu Darvish had a successful rehab start with the South Bend Cubs. By all accounts, he was commanding his pitches well and throwing strikes. But is everything good with Darvish? There may still be some gray clouds lingering over the Cubs' big-ticket free agent signing. In the final segment, I updated the standings and took a look at how the Cincinnati Reds have been doing lately. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Cubs split their double-header on Tuesday with the Los Angeles Dodgers, setting up a rubber-match on Wednesday. Jon Lester will take on Ross Stripling at 1:20 pm CST, and that's the marquee matchup of the series. Both pitchers have been very good for their respective teams in 2018. I talked in depth about each guy in the second segment. Also in that segment, I took a deeper look at which Cubs players have a reasonable chance of making the All-Star team. Several Cubs have a strong case, but who might get left out in the cold when selections are made? The final segment featured the usual "Around the NL Central," with the updated standings as of the start of play on Wednesday. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
After taking 2-of-3 with the St. Louis Cardinals over the weekend, rain and a power outage (how appropriate for this team) prevented the Cubs from even playing on Monday night. The game against the Los Angeles Dodgers was rescheduled for a double-header today, with the first game beginning at 12:05 pm CST. Tyler Chatwood will start in the day game, with Mike Montgomery starting in the evening game at 7:05 pm CST. I recently wrote about Montgomery for Bet Chicago, and you can read that story here. In the second segment, I talked a bit about some of the weird ways in which Joe Maddon is handling Pedro Strop this year. Also, could my biggest Cubs trade deadline target be off the table? What will they do now? In the final segment, I did a quick rundown of the NL Central and the (once again) first place Cubs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Today is a mailbag episode, and oh boy was it necessary. Podcasting through a cold, I powered through the fact that the Cubs -- and the rest of the NL Central -- were off on Thursday. In the first segment, I previewed the weekend set with the St. Louis Cardinals that begins tonight. Jon Lester will face Michael Wacha. Later, I answered questions that included talk about MLB expansion, the backup catcher, and whether the Aroldis Chapman trade was worth it. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and email any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

The Cubs lost the finale of their series in Milwaukee, dropping 2-of-3 to the Brewers. It was a 1-0 shutout, their second day in a row not scoring any runs. Mike Montgomery was excellent, but the offense just didn't pick him up against Jhoulys Chacin and the Milwaukee bullpen. The Cubs will go to St. Louis to begin a series with the Cardinals on Friday. In the second segment, I tried to be fair to Joe Maddon while examining some of his decisions in that 1-0 loss. There were two key moments: Pulling Monty at 78 pitches, and not pinch-hitting Kris Bryant in the ninth inning. In the final segment, I looked around the NL Central and updated the standings.

The Cubs lost the middle game of their three-game set in Milwaukee, 4-0. Chase Anderson was brilliant for the Brewers, throwing seven innings and allowing just one hit to the Cubs in the shutout. Tyler Chatwood only walked two batters, but he made a few other mistakes and was generally erratic. He allowed four runs in five innings, throwing 97 pitches in the loss. The Cubs will try to take the finale of the series today with Mike Montgomery on the mound. For the second segment, I took suggestions from the fans on what I should discuss. I touched on those topics, plus a look at how some former Cubs are doing. In the final segment, I did my usual "Around the NL Central" and updated the standings. Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm back after missing out on Monday due to some power problems at home. But the good news is that the Cubs keep winning, taking 2-of-3 with the Pirates and winning Game 1 of a three-game set in Milwaukee. The latter victory vaults the Cubs into first place for the first time by themselves since 4/30. Jose Quintana was solid, while the offense did just enough to get it into extra innings. They pushed across five runs to win 7-2 in 11 innings, including an Anthony Rizzo home run. What has happened to Kris Bryant lately? I'll talk about that briefly, as well as why the Cubs' latest surge in the standings is coming at just the right time. They can't afford to let the Brewers get away from them like they did last season. Also, how fun would a Cubs-Brewers or Cubs-Cardinals postseason series be in 2018? I finished out by updating the standings and noting which team currently has the best record in the National League. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Jake Arrieta returned to Wrigley Field this week, but that didn't stop the Cubs from taking two out of three games with the Philadelphia Phillies. Thanks to Jason Heyward's walk-off grand slam on Wednesday, the Cubs were in position to win the series with Tyler Chatwood on the mound on Thursday. Chatwood was wild once again, walking seven batters in 4 2/3 innings. But the Cubs pulled out a narrow 4-3 win. In the second segment, I did some fun with numbers. Anthony Rizzo has been hot, Kris Bryant's power has been turned off, and Ben Zobrist has been really good all year. Some of what the bullpen has done has been smoke and mirrors, however, and there are questions about whether the Cubs can continue to squeeze such great work out of their 'pen.

Things were looking dire for the Cubs on Wednesday, heading into the bottom of the ninth inning trailing 5-3. But notable late-inning hero Jason Heyward unloaded on left-handed reliever Adam Morgan, sending the fans home happy with a walk-off grand slam and a 7-3 win. Heyward has been really good since coming off the DL, and in the second segment I brought some key stats to note why he's a changed man in 2018. Can you imagine how good this offense could be if Heyward could even just be league-average at the plate? In the final segment, I brought up a very interesting stat in which the Cubs are now the very best in the National League. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Nothing was going on with the Cubs on the diamond on Monday, but things were going on behind the scenes. It was the beginning of the MLB draft, and with the 26th pick the Cubs selected Stanford shortstop Nico Hoerner. I talked to a talent evaluator about what fans can expect from Hoerner as a prospect, and I passed on that knowledge in the first segment. In the second segment, I welcomed Kelly Wallace back to the podcast to help me answer a few questions from the fans. That ranged from the whereabouts of Eddie Butler to a little early trade deadline discussion. In the final segment, Kelly teased her new venture with Expanded Roster (click here for more info!) and I went into a little greater detail about my own thing with The Cloud City Chronicle.

The Cubs really have it rolling right now, winning four straight games in a road sweep over the New York Mets. They're now 17-8 since those two embarrassing back-to-back walk-off losses in St. Louis. I took a look back over the last three games and how the Cubs got it done. They won't play on Monday, but Jake Arrieta and the Philadelphia Phillies come to town on Tuesday. In the second segment, I looked at how important the pitching depth has been at Triple-A this year. Can the Cubs avoid taxing their bullpen in the second half? They couldn't in 2017, and we all saw what that meant in the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers. In the final segment, I looked around the NL Central and updated the standings.

I have returned for a Friday episode of Locked On Cubs. The Cubs lost to the Pittsburgh Pirates in the finale of their three-game set on Wednesday (link to Kelly Wallace's article on illegal slides here), but bounced back on Thursday to take the first of a four-game series with the New York Mets. The final score of the game was 5-1, with Jose Quintana pitching well and taking the victory. Ben Zobrist and Jason Heyward combined to go 5-for-10 with a homer and three RBI. In the second segment, I tackled Chris Gimenez's recent comments about Yu Darvish and took David Haugh to task for his disgusting, pandering, borderline irresponsible hot takes. In the final segment, I recapped the last two days for the NL Central and updated the standings heading into Friday's games.

Good news, everyone! The Cubs won in Pittsburgh last night, making it two straight over the Pirates and four of their last five. But that's not even the best news for the Cubs on Wednesday. The MRI results came back on Yu Darvish, and there is no structural damage. What does this mean for the rotation in the coming weeks? I broke it down in segment two, including a brief look at what Adbert Alzolay has going on at Triple-A these days. In the final segment, I looked around the NL Central and updated the standings.

The Cubs took three out of four games over the long weekend, beating the San Francisco Giants twice at home and taking a Memorial Day matchup with the Pittsburgh Pirates. There are a few things to go over here, including Tyler Chatwood's latest rough outing and Mike Montgomery's case for more starts. The Cubs play the Pirates again on Tuesday night, with Jon Lester taking the ball at 6:05 pm CST. In the second segment, I talked about those two things, the Anthony Rizzo slide at home plate, and the unsustainable bullpen usage. In the final segment, I did my typical around the NL Central and updated the standings. Through 50 games this season, the Cubs are on pace for about 91 wins.

I have returned to the podcast for Episode 78! Since the Cubs did not play on Thursday, I took a chance to do another look at the events of the seventh inning on Wednesday in my opening segment. There is one big thing that I had a problem with, and it's not new: Joe Maddon's refusal to bring in Albert Almora Jr. as a pinch-hitter for Jason Heyward. I brought out some numbers, plus a key example from 2017. In the second segment, I answered a question on the topic of potential trade targets. Spoiler Alert: They are scarce. Finally, I did my usual rundown of the NL Central. The Cubs are now 3.5 games back of the Milwaukee Brewers. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and send any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com. Also, keep a lookout for @BetChicago1, which will be launching on June 1.

Corey Freedman of Cubs Insider and the Cubs Related podcast sat down in the hosting chair for Episode 77 of Locked On Cubs. He first recapped a frustrating 1-0 loss against the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday night, and in the second segment Corey looked at Jon Lester's performance in that loss. Lester went seven innings, allowing one earned run while striking out four batters. In the final segment, Corey spent some time diving into the seventh inning of the game ... mistakes were made. How much of a pass should Joe Maddon get? After all, flags fly forever. To finish things out, Corey updated the standings and discussed a little of what's going on with the other teams in the NL Central.

The Cubs lost the opener of the short two-game set with the Cleveland Indians by a score of 10-1. Trevor Bauer was excellent for the Indians, while Tyler Chatwood couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a baseball. No, really. Chatwood wasn't just missing with his pitches, but often missing by several feet. He walked six batters in the game, and it finally got the best of him. I went into further detail about my Chatwood concerns in my second segment. In my final segment, I looked around the NL Central and updated the standings. The Cubs are now three games back of the first place Milwaukee Brewers, tied in third place with the Pittsburgh Pirates. They're playing their final game of the season against the Indians tonight, with Jon Lester facing Adam Plutko. I'll be back with a podcast on Friday, and it follows yet another off day for the Cubs.

The Cubs will welcome the Cleveland Indians to Wrigley Field for two games, and it's the first time the Indians will pay a visit since Game 5 of the 2016 World Series. That game was started by Trevor Bauer, and Bauer will start again for the Indians on Tuesday night against Tyler Chatwood. That game will start at 6:05 pm CST, and I'll be at Wrigley on Wednesday doing a story for the Sporting News. In the second segment, I took more questions from the listeners since the Cubs didn't play on Monday. That includes a question about games that we know by a certain player's name and the two cities I would pick to place expansion teams for Major League Baseball. In the final segment, I updated the NL Central standings. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and send us your questions and comments at lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

The Cubs took three out of four games in Cincinnati over the weekend, which is excellent news. But probably the best news is that both Jose Quintana and Yu Darvish pitched well, combining over the final two victories to pitch 13 innings with three hits allowed and one earned run. Just imagine how good the Cubs could be if Quintana and Darvish are pitching up to their potential! In segment two, I brought on Jeremy Deimer and Pat Nagle from the Wrigleyville Nation podcast to chat a bit more about what's going on with the Cubs. That includes a little chat about Albert Almora Jr. and his outstanding projections for the rest of the season. Finishing out, I did my quick rundown of the NL Central and updated the standings.

The final game of the Cubs and Braves' series in Atlanta was rained out, so the Cubs got the day off on Thursday. It's good that they're rested going into the series against the Cincinnati Reds, but the long-term effects are not so good. I looked at the upcoming schedule, and how this is going to change things in the second half for the Cubs. In the second segment, I took a handful of questions from the listeners. That includes some mascot chat, the most annoying habit of Cubs fans, and which starting pitcher I am most concerned with going forward.

The Cubs suffered yet another frustrating loss on Wednesday night, which is their third such loss in their last four games. The Braves won the game by a score of 4-1, putting up three runs in the bottom of the eighth on Carl Edwards Jr. What has happened to C.J.? Has he really turned a corner this season, or is he still going to go through stretches where he dominates and stretches where teams light him up? I brought out some stats in the second segment to compare the 2018 offense with the 2016 offense, and there are some surprises in there. What's not surprising? The Cubs have been extremely inconsistent on offense this season. As usual, I looked at the entire NL Central in the final segment, and I'm sorry to say that the Cubs were the only team that lost yesterday.

The Cubs broke their two-game losing streak last night against the Atlanta Braves, thanks to a two-run rally in the ninth inning. Brandon Morrow closed out a 3-2 Cubs victory. Yu Darvish had to leave after four innings in his return from the disabled list, but is it a big deal? I'll attempt to speak calmly about the early issues with Darvish. Tonight's game in Atlanta will be started by Tyler Chatwood, and in the second segment I have plenty to say about his performance thus far. I did a quick rundown of some Statcast numbers that I found pretty interesting, and then in the final segment I did the usual rundown of the NL Central and updated the standings.

Sean Sears (@seanrsears) of FanSided -- and now a writing contributor for Locked On Cubs -- once again stepped up to the plate to help out with Episode 70 of Locked On Cubs. He looks back at a frustrating loss to the Atlanta Braves on a hot day in which the wind was blowing out. It's easy to look back on the Jose Quintana trade in retrospect, but what is the Cubs left-hander doing wrong in 2018? Why has he been so much worse than his stellar career numbers? Looking ahead, the Cubs now travel to Cobb County for three more games with the Braves. In the final segment, Sean looked at the National League standings and where the Cubs sit in the NL Central.

For Episode 69, I wanted to give the fans a nice treat. Evan Altman of Cubs Insider joined me for my second segment to chat a bit about the Cubs, Triple-A depth, and the overall perception of Addison Russell. To close out the discussion, we teased an article I wrote for Cubs Insider that compared Cubs players with Marvel superheroes from Avengers: Infinity War. It's just for fun, but if you're a Marvel fan it's a must-read. Otherwise, the Cubs took two-of-three from the White Sox this weekend, and I spent the first segment looking back on that.

With the Cubs having an off-day on Thursday, I took the opportunity to field more of your questions for Episode 68. There were some good ones! In the first segment, I talked a little about some hypothetical lead-off options and a recent hot-take about whether or not Kris Bryant is a superstar. Yeah, you can't make this up. A national baseball guy really did start this conversation. In the second segment, I took more questions. First, I blathered on and on about writing and why not to try to get into the sports writing industry. Later, I recalled my favorite player to interview and ranked the best Cubs playoff victories. Needless to say, they're all from this century. Be sure to follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and don't be afraid to email any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

The Cubs finished out their sweep of the Miami Marlins on Wednesday, pounding starter Wei-Yin Chen and posting a 13-4 victory. Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant, and Addison Russell all hit homers for Chicago, and the main arms in the bullpen got some major, must-needed rest. So the Cubs are now 8-5 in their last 13 games despite an awful offensive stretch, which puts them on pace for 100 wins. Next up on the schedule is the Chicago White Sox. I spent the second segment looking back on the Crosstown Classic. Despite how many might feel, the Cubs and Sox are not rivals in any sense of the word. Maybe the fans have a rivalry, but that doesn't even really exist outside Chicago. At any rate, I looked back on some stats from the historical, head-to-head matchup, a few key moments in the series, and Cubs franchise leaders versus the White Sox.

The Cubs beat the Marlins for the second straight day, running their record to 7-5 in their last 12 games. But wins and losses aren't the only thing we're here to talk about. Tom Loxas of Cubs Insider joins me in the second segment to go over those Manny Machado trade rumors. Would it make sense for either the Cubs or the Baltimore Orioles to work out a deal? If so, who would have to be involved? In the final segment, I did my brief rundown of the NL Central and updated the standings. Jose Quintana will take on the Marlins in the finale of the three-game series on Wednesday, with the Cubs looking for a three-game sweep.

The Cubs are back in the win column, baby! Ian Happ hit two home runs, Kris Bryant crushed one, and Javy Baez hit a deep homer to center field in a 14-2 rout of the Miami Marlins. It really was exactly what the Cubs needed, with Kyle Hendricks tossing eight innings and giving the bullpen a much-needed day of rest. Jen-Ho Tseng will make his 2018 debut with the Cubs on Tuesday night against Miami. In the second segment, I looked at a piece that Patrick Mooney wrote for The Athletic on Adbert Alzolay, and I looked at what could be on the horizon for him (and the rest of the Cubs' bullpen) as the season moves along. There are some very good reasons to look to avoid burning out guys like Steve Cishek, and it has everything to do with October.

That didn't go as planned. The Cubs lost all three in St. Louis over the weekend by a combined four runs, including two walk-off losses that they lead with less than three outs to go. That brings the losing streak to five games, and well, things aren't going very well for the Cubs right now. They can't hit, they can't score, and it's no fun to watch. But otherwise, things are great. In segment two, I vented the frustration on behalf of Cubs fans everywhere. This is off script, people. Not only did I point out the biggest problem, I pointed out the biggest things that Cubs fans love to blame that really aren't the problem at all. Finally, I looked around the NL Central, updated the unfortunate division standings, and looked ahead at the Marlins a bit.

It's an off-day podcast, so I gathered questions from a Twitter AMA to entertain you. In the first segment, I jumped on some meatballs right down the middle. It's a little light-hearted, and a good way to kick things off. But in the second segment, I went at the really hard-hitting stuff. That includes a question about whether the Baltimore Orioles would actually be interested in a Manny Machado-for-Addison Russell type of deal. In the final segment, I looked at the one game from the NL Central on Thursday. The Cubs begin a series in St. Louis on Friday, with Jose Quintana facing Miles Mikolas.

The Cubs lost against to the Rockies on Wednesday, dropping their three-game set and finishing the season series tied at 3-3. The offense failed them again, but this time the pitching was no better. On a day when the wind was blowing out, Rockies pitcher Tyler Anderson dominated while Yu Darvish couldn't keep fly balls to stay in the ballpark. The final score was 11-2, with solo homers from Anthony Rizzo and Kris Bryant accounting for all the Cubs' runs. I welcomed Kelly Wallace of Locked On Cubs back to the show to talk a little about Ian Happ in our second segment. Have the Cubs learned from their handling of Kyle Schwarber last year, and will they send Happ and his 46.1 K% down to Triple-A Iowa?

The Cubs are back in first place all on their own, which is where they belong. After winning four straight over the Brewers, the Cubs took Game 1 of a three-game home series with the Colorado Rockies. In the opening segment, I do a quick rundown of everything that has happened since last Friday. In the second segment, I opened talking about Adbert Alzolay and his excellent start at Triple-A Iowa on Monday evening. What could his role be in Chicago this season? After a few historical notes on Anthony Rizzo and Kris Bryant, I took a look around the NL Central. The Cubs' 7-1 record has meant a lot in relation to the Brewers, who are now one game back of the Cubs. A special thanks to Sean Sears of FanSided for taking the reigns for me on Friday. I was in Chicago doing a story on the Brewers for The Athletic, so I appreciate him picking up my slack.

Apologies for the late and rushed podcast today. I'm hopping a train and heading for Chicago, where I'll be (hopefully) getting a story on Christian Yelich of the Milwaukee Brewers. In the meantime, let's talk about a Cubs loss to the Cleveland Indians. Kris Bryant sat out once again, but is that cause for concern? Not yet, but maybe soon. Jon Lester pitched well again, becoming the first Cub to get through seven innings as a starter this year. I went into the Ian Happ problem, how things might shake out when Ben Zobrist comes off the DL, and a few notes on Yu Darvish throwing to Willson Contreras. I finished out with a quick look at what happened in the NL Central on Wednesday, but had to cut the podcast short when my train arrived a few minutes early. Sean Sears of FanSided will be bringing you Friday's podcast. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and email any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

The Cubs got another victory on Tuesday, improving to 11-9 and breaking the latest curse -- being .500 at every interval. Take that, 10-10! Kyle Schwarber was one of the big heroes of the win, clubbing two monster home runs to right field. Tyler Chatwood also chipped in, giving the Cubs six solid innings despite walking five batters. In the second segment, I went a bit deeper into Schwarber's very good numbers so far in 2018. Unfortunately, Addison Russell hasn't been quite so good. But you might be surprised to learn about some of his peripheral stats. Finally, I updated the NL Central standings and teased a piece that I'll be writing for a new publication this week. For those of you that have followed along, my Jordan Hicks piece for Sporting News is now live and can be read here.

With the Cubs coming off (yet another) off day and Evan Altman coming off a long vacation, I thought it would be fun to have a chat with the Cubs Insider managing editor. Evan and I talked about the success of the bullpen to this point in the season, followed by a fun little game I invented specifically to make him look bad. In the final segment, Evan and I discussed some of the good and the bad of the St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers, and which team we believe is the main challenger for the Cubs in the NL Central.

The Cubs went into Colorado and took two out of three from the Rockies over the weekend, which is good! But Yu Darvish was stinky once again and Kris Bryant got hit in the face with a fastball, which is bad. At any rate, there is plenty of good stuff that happened since I last spoke to you. I did a quick recap of the last three games before taking a question from a listener on that weird situation on Sunday between Javier Baez and DJ LeMahieu. For my final segment, as always, I took a look around the NL Central and updated the current standings. The Brewers are on a tear, while the Cardinals just can't stop beating up on the poor Reds. The Pirates aren't doing so hot lately, having fallen out of first place. Be sure to send us any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com and follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs.

The Cubs not only played a game on Thursday, but they won a game! They beat the St. Louis Cardinals by a score of 8-5, with Jon Lester getting the victory and pitching well. Only a bit of a rough seventh inning from Eddie Butler was a black mark on this one. Javier Baez and Jason Heyward both had a couple of hits. The Cubs will travel to Colorado to take on the Rockies for a weekend series, with Kyle Hendricks opposing Jon Gray on Friday night. In my second segment, I welcomed Kelly Wallace of Locked On Cubs to chat about Ian Happ vs. Albert Almora in the outfield, as well as the breakout season of Baez. To finish things up, I took a look around the NL Central and updated the current standings.

With another slightly later release, I bring you Episode 53 of Locked On Cubs. This is not a drill, people; it appears as though the Cubs and Cardinals will actually play a game at 1:20 pm CST on Thursday. To start out the podcast, I chatted briefly about a story I was chasing at Wrigley Field on Tuesday and some of my interactions within the Cardinals clubhouse. Mike Maddux is an interesting dude. Next, I looked at Javier Baez batting in the second spot in the lineup for just the second time since 2014, and why he's having an outstanding season despite his deceptive .235 batting average. This is a major reach, but what if Baez were to actually reach the ceiling on his potential in 2018? I finished out the podcast, as always, by running down the action from Wednesday in the NL Central and I even added a brief look at the standings.

Sean Sears stepped in to take Wednesday's episode of Locked On Cubs, due to travel on Ryan's part. The episode kicks off with a quick rundown of the Cubs' 5-3 loss on Tuesday to the St. Louis Cardinals, following two off days that came thanks to some inclement weather. Next, Sean looked at Tyler Chatwood's start and his biggest problem -- Chatwood can't stop walking people. Finally, Sean took a look around the NL Central. A special thanks to him for helping out and keeping the podcast train rolling along while Ryan gets caught up after a trip to frigid Wrigley Field.

The good news is that the Cubs had a massive comeback on Saturday, beating the Atlanta Braves 14-10 after being down 10-2. The bad news? That's the last time the Cubs played, getting postponed for weather on Sunday and Monday. I briefly recapped the win on Saturday, then took a look at how the weather has effected the Cubs so far this year and what it may mean down the road. In the final segment, I took a look at the rest of the NL Central and previewed the upcoming games. This was a short one, because frankly there wasn't a lot of action minus Saturday's weird, rain-induced comeback victory.

Hey, we made it to 50 episodes! For this one, I recapped a not-fun loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday. Kyle Hendricks pitched relatively well, giving up only a couple of solo homers. Justin Wilson, on the other hand, was not quite so good. The Cubs lost the game 6-1, and with it the series (2-1). But the big story from this series were some comments that Pirates manager Clint Hurdle made about Javier Baez and Willson Contreras not "respecting the game." I took a dive into what Baez did, how he responded immediately after, and why (even though most of what he said was right) Hurdle was wrong to say what he did. The TL;DR of it is there appears to be some resentment on the Pirates side of this rivalry. I finished out the podcast, as always, by quickly running down the action of the NL Central on Thursday. That was just one game, but in that game a position player struck out a St. Louis Cardinals star! If that's not worth sticking around for, what is?

Evan Altman of Cubs Insider joined me on this podcast to chat about the last two games for the Cubs -- one excellent win, and one somewhat frustrating loss against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Cubs broke out the bats against Pittsburgh on Wednesday night, beating the Pirates 13-5. Javier Baez had his second consecutive two-homer game. Evan and I kicked things off in a negative way, chatting about things we haven't liked from the first 11 games. And is Tyler Chatwood the second coming of Jason Marquis? But this wouldn't be Locked On Cubs without a positive spin! In the second segment, Evan and I discussed the things that we have liked so far in the first 11 games of the year. Willson Contreras, Ben Zobrist, and Kris Bryant all make a cameo in our discussion. After we wrapped that up, I did a brief rundown of the action in the NL Central.

Unfortunately, the Cubs and Pirates were snowed out on Monday. That kept the fans from getting to Wrigley Field for the official home opener, pushing that to Tuesday afternoon at 1:20 pm CST. In the meantime, I grabbed some questions from the listeners in an attempt to entertain you -- and really, myself too. First, I chatted a bit about Ian Happ and how much time he may have left in the leadoff spot. Next, I moved on to discuss Willson Contreras' Venezuelan League incident, the status of the Cubs' rotation depth at the moment, and whether or not peanut butter on a burger is acceptable. And at the very end, I announced the winner of our very first giveaway! Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and email any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

Apologies for the late start today, a nasty cold got in my way on Monday. Even still, I forged ahead to bring you episode 47. I started out by recapping the action of the weekend, in which the Cubs finished off taking 3 out of 4 from the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park. But the situational hitting so far this season? It has been less than good. I took a deeper dive into some of the early numbers. I finished out the podcast by briefly recapping the rest of the action around the NL Central, including an incident with Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo and every Cubs fan's favorite catcher, Yadier Molina. Was the umpire correct in leaving Molina in the game? I make the case that he was. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and email us any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

After a few days out in Las Vegas, I returned for Friday's episode of Locked On Cubs -- and just in time to recap the Cubs' first victory since the previous Saturday. In fact, the Cubs didn't score a single run while I was in Vegas. At any rate, they beat the Milwaukee Brewers 8-0 behind Jon Lester on Thursday. In the second segment, I went over a handful of positives and just a few questions the Cubs have remaining after their first few games. Is Brandon Morrow really the right choice for closer? And is Ian Happ in a slump, or is it something worse than that? Finally, episode 46 closes out with a brief look around the NL Central.

Welcome to Locked on Cubs, the daily podcast covering the Chicago Cubs as part of the Locked on Podcast Network. With regular host Ryan Davis out, Sean Sears takes over as the Cubs are coming off a rain out and day off. Sean opens the show discussing the offense, which has struggled early this season. Are the mounting strikeouts really a concern? Sean digs into the numbers to find out how concerned Cubs fans should be. Segment 2 discusses the bullpen, specifically Brandon Morrow. With a series against the Milwaukee Brewers coming up, we should get a look at the new closer in his new role. Morrow doesn't have closing experience; will he be able to handle that pressure situation? Overall, it's a bullpen that looks good on paper, but will it live up to that this season? We'll need to see some high-leverage situations to fully determine that, which we could see against the Brewers. The episode ends with a look at the NL Central and how each team stacks up a week into the season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Welcome to Locked on Cubs, the daily podcast covering the Chicago Cubs as part of the Locked on Podcast Network. With Ryan Davis out this week, Brendan Miller of Cubs Insider fills in to discuss the latest happenings with the Cubs. The episode begins with an evaluation of the Cubs starting rotation through the first round of the season. Brenden discusses his big takeaways with newcomers Yu Darvish and Tyler Chatwood, as well as Jose Quintana, Jon Lester and Kyle Hendricks. What about the lineup? Much has been made about the strikeouts early in the year, but we discuss why that stat is a little blown out of proportion. But the lead-off spot and Jason Heyward's spot are worth a discussion, especially when it involves Ben Zobrist's playing time. Addison Russell is coming off a down-year, but is the start of his season a sign of things to come? How has Kyle Schwaber's transformation looked so far? How will Ian Happ progress? Take a listen to the latest Locked on Cubs and get a reminder of how special this team can be. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Welcome to Locked on Cubs, your daily podcast covering the Chicago Cubs as part of the Locked on Podcast Network. With regular host Ryan Davis out this week, Matt LaCasse fills in to host Locked on Cubs. He reminds Cubs fans to take a deep breath. The beginning of the season hasn't been great with three losses to the Miami Marlins and Cincinnati Reds, but there's a lot of time left and plenty of talent around Chicago that we don't have to cancel the season just yet. Also, we take a brief look at the upcoming series against the Milwaukee Brewers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Welcome to Locked on Cubs, your daily podcast covering the Chicago Cubs. With regular host Ryan Davis out this week, Sean Sears of FanSided is here to guest host and bring you into a new week, which is just what the Cubs need after their disappointing series in Miami. The episode opens by discussing exactly what happened against those Marlins, as the Cubs split the series 2-2. Unfortunately for Chicago, the starting pitching didn't perform as expected, extra innings tapped the bullpen and the offense struggled to find ways to score when the ball wasn't going over the wall. It wasn't all bad. Sean talks about the positives he's taking away from the series, as well as the negatives (hint: please be better, Yu Darvish and Jose Quintana). The show concludes with Sean taking a look ahead at the brief stint against the Cincinnati Reds. With the Cubs struggling to open the season, a two-game series against the Reds might be just what the doctor ordered to get the North Siders back on track. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs came away with an Opening Day victory, beating the Miami Marlins 8-4. But that's just one small piece of the puzzle! There are plenty of things to talk about from game No. 1 of 162, and after I briefly recapped the Cubs' victory and looked at the rest of the NL Central I welcomed Michael Cerami of Bleacher Nation to talk with me about those things. You may have noticed that Michael gained some exposure on Thursday for tweeting that he would jump into the freezing cold lake if Ian Happ led off with a home run. I got his point of view on how that all went down, and then we took a deep dive into the bullpen's excellent day, Kyle Schwarber's shaky defense, and things to get excited about with Jason Heyward.

It's finally here! The Cubs play the Miami Marlins at 11:40am CST on Thursday, opening up what is sure to be an exciting 2018 season. In my first segment, I looked at the lineup for Opening Day and briefly previewed the rest of the series by looking at the starting pitchers the Marlins will send to the mound. In my second and third segments, I looked at a few questions from the listeners. The first regards my feelings on Tyler Chatwood, and the second is about Jason Heyward's playing time. Thanks so much for the questions, it really helped on the last two podcasts as we got closer to the season starting. Please continue to send questions my way throughout the year!

With opening day just around the corner, I wanted to do something a little lighter. I appreciate everyone who reached out with some questions for me, and I answered two of them here. First, I recapped the final spring game for the Cubs and a couple of interesting notes, and then in my final two segments I briefly tackled questions from the listeners. I'll be back tomorrow with more of the same, so if you didn't hear your question get answered don't fret. I'll do some of them tomorrow ahead of the game against the Marlins, and then some others I might save for other times throughout the regular season.

It's finally here! Locked On Cubs 38 welcomed Joel Reese, formerly of the BP Wrigleycast podcast, to preview the 2018 Chicago Cubs. Joel and I opened by looking at a laundry list of reasons to be excited about the Cubs this season, including their improved starting rotation. Next, we looked at a handful of things that have us slightly concerned. Joel and I finished out the podcast by doing a few over/under predictions, followed by win totals for each team in the NL Central. Will Kyle Schwarber hit 34 or more home runs? Will Kyle Hendricks set a new career-high in innings pitched? We're ready for the season to get started!

We're back after the weekend with episode 37 of Locked On Cubs! After recapping the action, I looked briefly at how the race for the final bullpen spot is shaping up. In my second segment, I went over the biggest surprise of the weekend, which was that Victor Caratini is making the big league roster over Chris Gimenez. Although it's a bit of a surprise, I walked through what I believe the Cubs' logic is and why the move is pretty low-risk. Finally, I looked at the recent news with the Cubs' rivals, the Cardinals and the Brewers. The Cards are dealing with some injuries, while the Brewers have some serious rotation questions of their own. The Cubs preview show is still upcoming, but I went out on a limb and gave my feelings about how the NL Central is stacking up as we wind down to the end of spring training.

There was no game for me to recap, because the Cubs played late on Thursday night and the game began after I had recorded. So I pretty much just dove right into talking about the Cincinnati Reds, and for that I welcomed James Rapien of Locked On Reds and ESPN Radio. First, we talked the biggest issue for the Reds: Their pitching staff. Later, we chatted more in depth about Homer Bailey, Billy Hamilton, and a Reds prospect you'll likely see this season. James and I finished out doing our predictions, looking at a few over/under candidates, what might need to happen for the Reds to make the playoffs, and win totals for the NL Central teams.

The Cubs beat the Texas Rangers on Wednesday afternoon behind an impressive effort from former Rangers pitcher Yu Darvish. Kris Bryant hit his first home run of the spring, a three-run towering shot off Matt Moore, and the Cubs won 5-1. Just another spring day. The biggest takeaway here is that Darvish appears ready for the regular season. In my second segment, I welcomed Travis Sarandos of Brew Crew Ball (and various others) to look at the 2018 Milwaukee Brewers. We started off by talking about the starting rotation and narrowing down who might appear as the No. 4 and No. 5 starters. Next, we looked at the logjam of outfielders that all need playing time. Finally, Travis and I did the big finish: Over/under and predicting the wins in the NL Central.

For our second NL Central preview, I welcomed Jason Rollison of Locked On Pirates. But first, I recapped the action from Monday night and Jon Lester's solid performance. He appears to be ready for Opening Day. Jason and I started off by discussing the Andrew McCutchen and Gerrit Cole trades, and the players the Pirates received in return. Then, we chatted a bit about former top pitching prospect Tyler Glasnow. Can he ever make it as a starter or is his future in the bullpen? We finished out by doing a little over/under, discussing how the Pirates could manage to make the playoffs, and I put Jason on the spot to pin down win totals for each team in the division.

Yes, those dreaded St. Louis Cardinals. In the first segment, I briefly recapped the action of the weekend for the Cubs before introducing my guest for the final two segments, Craig Edwards of FanGraphs. Craig and I chatted a bit about the Cardinals, their pitching staff, and some of the questions that remain. Like, why didn't they go sign a starting pitcher? Will their bullpen be good enough? In the final segment, I tossed some tough over/under numbers at Craig and put him on the spot to predict the win totals for all five NL Central teams. Sorry about any audio quality differences on this one, I recorded the segments differently. For next time, I'll try to keep it uniform! Thanks for listening, as always.

It seems like we're saying goodbye to Cubs players more and more, here on Locked On Cubs. Today, it's reliever Justin Grimm. After a rough 2017 and a few bad appearances this spring, the Cubs decided to let him go now and open up some competition for the final roster spot. Or could it be two final roster spots? I examined some relievers that could be contending for the final spots in the bullpen, including one that I think most of us hadn't even considered. Eddie Butler, Dillon Maples, Shae Simmons, Randy Rosario, and even Alec Mills have a chance of coming out of spring training in the bullpen for the Cubs. Finally, I took a deeper look at Cubs non-roster invitee Ryan Court. He grew up a big Cubs fan, and just in general is a guy you want to root for.

In episode 31 of Locked On Cubs, I started by recapping the two games from Tuesday (or as much as I could of the second game). Willson Contreras hit a homer, Kris Bryant keeps getting on base, and Ian Happ did the thing against Madison Bumgarner again. And what if Tyler Chatwood actually is really good this year? In the second segment I briefly looked at a poll I ran on Twitter, which came with some interesting results. Finally, I discussed a piece I wrote for FanRag Sports in which I looked at the most underrated players on each NL Central team (you can read it yourself here!). I don't need to bog you down by discussing all five, but the player I chose for the Cubs is Tommy La Stella. If you like what you hear, please smash that subscribe button and leave us a review!

Welcome to episode 30 of Locked On Cubs! There was no game on Monday, but the Cubs are making up for it with two games on Tuesday. You can even catch one on television if you're lucky. I looked at the matchups for both games. Looking ahead, I talked about Addison Russell's solid but quiet spring and how much a healthy Russell can really be a difference-maker for the Cubs this season. Finally, I played around with stats. Hooray, spring training stats! But I also got sucked into looking at other stats while researching the spring stats, and I came up with a few good ones regarding active players.

Well, they've finally done it. Jake Arrieta is now a member of the Philadelphia Phillies after signing a three-year, $75 million contract on Sunday. I talked about that in episode of 29 of Locked On Cubs after I recapped the action of the weekend. Was there ever a real offer from the Cubs for Arrieta to turn down? Time for some myth-busting! After Arrieta, I recapped a piece on Jason Heyward that I wrote for FanRag Sports (which you can find here!). Finally, I laid out some interesting thoughts on Justin Grimm and who could be competing to steal that final roster spot out from under him.

Welcome to episode 28 of Locked On Cubs. For the final episode of the week, I welcomed my good friend Jared Wyllys of the Sporting News. Jared and I looked back on the action of the day, which saw the Cubs beating the San Diego Padres, 10-4. Tyler Chatwood had another fine start, and one of the more underrated story's of the spring is what an excellent No. 5 starter he could be in this rotation. After that, we chatted about things we've learned so far in spring training -- or probably more accurately, things we think are interesting. Is Ian Happ going to be stealing some playing time from Jason Heyward this year? Last, Jared and I looked at some recent comments from Houston Astros starting pitcher Dallas Keuchel. Should fans be riled up that he thinks the Astros are better than the Cubs? Be sure to follow @LockedOnCubs on Twitter, and be sure to email us any questions or comments to lockedoncubs@gmail.com.

Welcome to episode 27 of Locked On Cubs. I took a look back at Wednesday night's game, in which the Cubs beat the Cleveland Indians by a score of 11-6 on WGN. Albert Almora Jr. hit a home run, as did Kyle Schwarber. Jose Quintana started the game and had an uneventful stint. Everything is starting to come together for the Cubs, who just need to stay healthy and continue the momentum rolling toward the start of the season. In the second segment, I looked at relief prospect Dillon Maples. He pitched against Cleveland on Wednesday, going one inning, no hits, no walks, no runs, with three strikeouts. Man, his slider/cutter/slutter is absolutely filthy, both from the eye test and from what is measurable. Last, I finished out talking about Jake Arrieta once again. Even with a full roster, at what point does it make sense for Arrieta and the Cubs to agree on a one-year deal? Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs and me @RyanQDavis. We're looking to do a giveaway, possibly of my mint condition Sammy Sosa 1990 Upper Deck rookie card. It doesn't hold a lot of monetary value, but it's still kind of neat.

I'm back again today with another short podcast, episode 26 of Locked On Cubs. I took a brief look at the debut of Yu Darvish with the Cubs on Tuesday, which also happened to be the game in which Ben Zobrist and Brandon Morrow would make their 2018 Cactus League debuts. The Cubs won the game, but most important is that Darvish looked good and has now taken his first step toward the regular season. In the second segment, I looked at an unfortunate injury to a former Cub. Travis Wood, who signed a minor league deal with the Detroit Tigers this winter, tore his ACL earlier this week and got released on Tuesday. I chatted a bit about Wood and his tenure with the team (without even mentioning his catch in left field!), as well as what's going on with several other former Cubs. Finally, I briefly discussed the results of a Twitter poll. You can follow us @LockedOnCubs on Twitter or me @RyanQDavis.

I'm back this Tuesday morning with episode 25 of Locked On Cubs, talking about the Cubs' 3-1 record from Friday through Monday. What's most important, however, is looking at the red-hot Ian Happ, the ice-cold Jason Heyward, and the brand-new curveball of Kyle Hendricks. Don't forget that Yu Darvish is actually making his Cubs debut against the Los Angeles Dodgers, in a 2:05 pm CST start on Tuesday afternoon. Pitching prospect Oscar de la Cruz made an appearance for the Cubs in the ninth inning of Monday's game, and his stat line looked nice. However, there is one minor reason for concern. Will the 23-year-old have the breakout season that so many are hoping to see from him? Lastly, I looked back on Heyward. Sahadev Sharma wrote for The Athletic (subscription required) about his major decline in his first two seasons with the Cubs, and it's a glimpse at a bleak, dystopian future for Heyward. What would be good enough from the Cubs' $184 million man? If you like what you hear, please smash that subscribe button on iTunes.

Welcome to episode 24 of Locked On Cubs! The Cubs played the San Diego Padres on Thursday, and Ian Happ hit his third home run of the spring! Unfortunately, Chicago suffered yet another tie. Insert joke about kissing your sister. Alec Mills pitched well in a spot start, with Yu Darvish on the mend from an illness. It appears that Yu is going to be okay, though. After recapping the game, I look forward to Friday's tilt between Jose Quintana's Cubs and Shohei Ohtani's Los Angeles Angels. I spent the next two segments looking at a few Cubs notes in Jon Heyman's Inside Baseball on FanRag Sports. He mentioned a few names that the Cubs liked as possible replacements for Joe Maddon -- someday. I gave my top-three, as well, but feel free to tweet @LockedOnCubs to tell me how wrong I am. Finally, I discussed Heyman's note about the Cubs and their level of interest in signing free agent reliever Greg Holland. Would it makes sense?

Welcome back to yet another episode of Locked On Cubs! I took a look back at the 4-1-1 spring Cubs' 7-5 victory over the Oakland A's, which included several noteworthy outings from key bullpen guys. Thursday will mark the spring debut of Yu Darvish, which is kind of exciting even if it's not really that big of a deal. Speaking of Darvish, Joe Maddon recently announced where the pitcher would fall in the opening rotation, so I discussed that briefly as well. Finally, I finished off with a segment on Jake Arrieta. Remember him? What's going on with Jake? I looked at the most recent rumors and harped on the team that I think is still the most likely to end up with him.

More spring training baseball to talk about! Okay, it's really not actually that interesting, but I run down the details of the Cubs' 9-9 tie with the Seattle Mariners. They came back in the ninth to force a tie! Mike Freeman hit a home run! But probably the most interesting thing involved in this one is reliever Brian Duensing's rare stat line. Moving on, I talked briefly about several of the writers at LockedOnCubs.com and how I can already see really positive signs for the upcoming season. Kelly, Sean, Joel, Tom, Danielle, and Austin are the well-balanced team I was hoping they would be, seeing the game from several different angles. Finally, I finished up this effort with a question from a listener regarding Albert Almora Jr. and by reading a handful of recent reviews on iTunes.

We finally have real, actual games to talk about! Well, spring training games, anyway. I welcomed my good friend Evan Altman of Cubs Insider to chat with me, and we pontificated on the start of spring training, the opening day starter, playing time splits, and more. For the final segment, Evan and I fielded a handful of questions from the fans. That includes some details on our budding bromance, and how we became inseparable besties. From there, things went south pretty fast. But those who stick around until the end will be rewarded with at least one good story. You can follow Evan @DEvanAltman and Ryan @RyanQDavis.

Hello to my listeners from sunny Cape Coral, Florida! I wanted to record a short podcast for you on some recent topics, even though I have a bit of a frog in my throat (my apologies). First, I looked at Jake Arrieta having still not signed with a team, and some recent news from Jon Heyman on that front. Could Arrieta return to the Cubs like Dexter Fowler did in the spring of 2016? Next, I looked at a conversation going on around the J.D. Martinez contract with the Boston Red Sox, and why some Cubs fans think the team should've been more involved. I gave my opinion on whether that would've made sense, whether they sign Bryce Harper or not. I finished up by looking a piece on Cubs Insider from Evan Altman which pertains to a tweak in Justin Wilson's delivery.

Pitchers and catchers have reported! But still, not a whole lot of new stuff to chat about. I took a look at six regression candidates, three negative regression and three positive. There are reasons to believe that Ben Zobrist and Jon Lester will be much better in 2018. After that, I took a look back on Jake Arrieta's career with the Cubs and counted down my top-5 Arrieta moments. I even pontificated on whether Arrieta receives proper appreciation for what he has done. Would fans have noticed his greatness more if he were a lone star on a bad team, like Sammy Sosa was?

It's happening! The Cubs finally signed Yu Darvish, landing the top pitcher on the free agent market for just six years, $126 million. There are also incentives that could take the deal to $150 million, as well as a no-trade clause and an opt-out clause after the second year. I brought back my good friend and former BP Wrigleycast co-host Isaac Bennett to chat about the newest Cub, as well as the state of their rotation and how it matches up against the other playoff rotations in the National League. Isaac and I finished out by discussing the bullpen and the potential 25-man roster heading into the start of the season. If you like what you hear, please subscribe on iTunes and leave a review!

I welcomed reporter and rising star Robert Murray of FanRag Sports on the podcast to chat about Yu Darvish, Jake Arrieta, and everything surrounding the Cubs and free agency. In our first segment, Robert and I chatted about the offers that are out there on Darvish and what might be the most likely scenario for the top free agent pitcher. Next, we looked at what the No. 1 backup option might be for the Cubs if Darvish gets away, as I seek validation on what I've heard about the Cubs and their preference for either Arrieta or Alex Cobb. Finally, I tried to pin Robert down with some free agent predictions. He gives me his locked up, definite, 100% sure-thing on where a handful of free agents are going to sign.

Guess what? Yu Darvish still hasn't chosen a team. So instead, I looked at the PECOTA and ZiPS projections and pointed to a few items of interest. Next, I looked at Justin Grimm's arbitration case and another comparable reliever that may set the precedent that decides the outcome. Finally, I looked at the one surprising prospect that got ranked in the top-20 on ZiPS' top-100 prospect list.

Michael Cerami of Bleacher Nation joined me to talk about the latest Yu Darvish rumors, including that he apparently wants seven years and $175 million. Is that rumor intended to get more money or years out of the Cubs? We agreed on the Cubs being front-runners for Darvish, but what if they don't add him? Is Jake Arrieta or Alex Cobb the Cubs' official Plan B? We finished out with an easy final segment, doing a few over/under predictions. That ended up lasting around 30 minutes, and somehow delved into some discussion about just how great Kerry Wood was in his peak.

There's still not a whole lot going on in Cubs news, so I took some inspiration from David Kaplan of NBC Sports Chicago and ranked the best and worst players since I became a baseball fan. After listing out all of those, I took a question from a fan regarding Alex Cobb and whether the Cubs should skip on Yu Darvish to ensure that they don't end up walking away from free agency empty-handed. Rounding out the podcast, I looked back on the Alex Avila era with the Cubs. The catcher they acquired from the Detroit Tigers in the Justin Wilson deal signed a contract to be the regular starter for the Arizona Diamondbacks, and I wish him well.

I'm back from my trip to Florida, but I'm somewhat disappointed in the lack of Cubs news to discuss. The Brewers did make some moves to improve their roster, but they still have a few more moves to make to catch the Cubs in the NL Central. I took a look what what the Cubs, Brewers, and the Cardinals need to do still this offseason, and also how many wins I see for each team as things stand right now. Finally, I talked about the writers you'll be seeing on the site and did a short introduction for each one. Some will be familiar names, some less familiar. I'm excited to have each one, and really wish I had the capacity to have brought on even more.

I jumped on a quick podcast to discuss the news of the Cubs signing catcher Chris Gimenez (which I pronounced incorrectly as hih-MEHN-ehz instead of JIH-muh-nehz, for some reason). Gimenez was a catcher on the Texas Rangers back in 2014 with Yu Darvish, so could this be a David Ross/Jon Lester kind of scenario for the Cubs? I also looked at Jason Heyward's comments about being the Cubs' 2018 MVP, and why that might not be as crazy as some think. Last, I answer a question from the fans and read more five-star reviews from iTunes. Thanks for sticking with me on this one, it was thrown together last minute and my voice was a little gravelly.

Jared Wyllys of the Sporting News joined me to talk baseball in episode 11 of Locked On Cubs. We started by dissecting a new Yu Darvish rumor and how it might impact Theo Epstein's pitching plans for the rest of the offseason. In the second segment, I tackled a question from the fans regarding prospects that could make an impact in 2018. I finished up by chatting with Jared about things that excite us about the upcoming season and the exciting growth I hope to see with the site this season.

The Cubs signed left-handed reliever Brian Duensing to a two-year, $7 million contract, and that constitutes major news. Which is kind of sad. But at any rate, it gives me something to talk to you about. Later, I answered a couple questions from the listeners, read a few of my early reviews on Locked On Cubs, and talked about the bright future that is ahead of us.

I went to the Cubs Convention this weekend, and finally we've been given some good stuff to talk about! There was no surprise Jake Arrieta or Yu Darvish announcement, but it was still a good time. First, I discuss Kyle Hendricks and a cool interview I did with him on Friday night at the media social event. I even tossed in a clip from that interview where Hendricks admitted that he's aware of the "Stoic Hendricks Meme" that has become popular among fans. In the second segment, I went into the interview I did with Jim Hickey (for a story you can read here). Hickey talked about his philosophy on pitching, his thoughts on the Cubs bullpen last season and their second half command problems, and what Cubs fans should expect to see with their most underrated signing: Steve Cishek. Finally, I gave my take on Tom Ricketts' Sammy Sosa comments and gave a rundown of the rest of the cool stuff I saw at the convention.

Once again, there is very little news to report on the Cubs front. With that in mind, I didn't bother to bring on a guest just to talk about The Simpsons, Star Wars, or whatever else interests me at the moment. I did, however, touch on Rene Rivera's deal with the Angels and the idea of re-signing Alex Avila. Later, I moved on to talk about reliever X-factors and the upcoming Cubs Convention in Chicago. There's a meet-and-greet that I and others will be attending Friday night, so join us if you're free!

Evan Altman of Cubs Insider joins me once again to talk about the painfully slow offseason. The good news is that there are some recent Jake Arrieta rumors, as well as a conversation going on around Javier Baez. It has been said that the Cubs will need to trade from their positional depth to acquire pitching, but so far they've avoided doing that. Will the Cubs end up in a situation where they have no other choice but to make a deal? Last, Evan and I discuss the surprising results of a poll and a few of the trade options for starting pitchers.

In a major throwback, I welcomed my former BP Wrigleycast co-host Isaac Bennett to chat with me on Episode 6 of Locked On Cubs. We looked at the Wade Davis deal with the Colorado Rockies and whether the Cubs were right to stay away, then took a broader view at the Cubs bullpen going into next season. After discussing some pitchers the Cubs might want to sign, we gave our theories on owner collusion and why the offseason has been slow so far.

There hasn't been a ton of credible Cubs rumors going around in recent days, with the whole world seemingly waiting on Yu Darvish. I picked a few questions sent along by the listeners to answer, including possible starting pitching trade options, the 2018 outlook on the Cincinnati Reds, and the next Cubs prospect that I expect to make it to the big leagues.

Luis Medina of Bleacher Nation joins me for Episode 4 of Locked On Cubs. We kick things off by debating the Yu Darvish rumors and the dollar amount where he makes sense for the Cubs. Then, Luis and I get crazy! He proposed an "Addison Russell for Manny Machado" trade on Twitter, with mixed reactions. We talk about that, plus another seemingly fair fake trade for Machado. We finish out by tag-teaming an answer to a question from a fan. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs, where you can tweet us questions you'd like answered on the podcast.

In Episode 3 of Locked On Cubs, Tom Loxas of Cubs Den joins me to talk about Alex Cobb, the Cubs' other rotation options, the bullpen, and more. We briefly talk about the improvements that the St. Louis Cardinals have made and where the division stands today, as of the end of the winter meetings. Tom and I finish out by answering a question from a fan and doing some over/under. Be sure to follow us on Twitter @LockedOnCubs, and me on my account at @RyanQDavis.

I welcomed my very first guest to Locked On Cubs, Evan Altman of Cubs Insider. After some witty (OK, not that witty) banter, we discuss the Cubs latest free agent signing: Drew Smyly. Next, we move on to other winter meetings rumors and a brief discussion on rumor etiquette among baseball writers and reporters that aren't named Heyman, Morosi, Passan, or Rosenthal. We finished out with a question from a listener regarding punny baseball names. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
It's the inaugural episode of Locked On Cubs! I start with a short introduction, then dive right into the good stuff. Part one features my thoughts on the risk involved with the Chatwood and Morrow signings. Then part two looks at what else might be happening for the Cubs at the winter meetings this week, and finally I discuss what the Cardinals and Brewers might be looking to do. This is my first ever solo podcast, so stick with me! I'll have frequent guests and will be working to make this better and better. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
