It’s been reported that the Cubs will call up their top pitching prospect.
We’re having a wild day at the late-week, late-night, indie coffee shop where we are all stunned that the new Pope is from Chicago. It’s the talk of the bar where we’re mixing up any cocktail you can imagine or a fancy pour-over of your favorite coffee beans if you are...

One of the biggest power couples in sports today is about to add another member to their family. Chicago Cubs shortstop Dansby Swanson and U.S. women’s soccer star Mallory Swanson announced in a joint post to social media this week that they are expecting their first child together.
The Cubs are promoting pitching prospect Cade Horton, per reporting from Patrick Mooney and Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic. Tommy Birch of The Des Moines Register first reported this afternoon that Horton was traveling to New York in advance of this weekend’s series against the Mets.
The Chicago Cubs are coming off a series loss at home against the San Francisco Giants and are set to take on the New York Mets for three games on the road this weekend.
The Chicago Cubs made a pretty big blunder with their public message after a Chicago native was named the new pope. Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost, OSA, on Thursday became the first American in the history of the Roman Catholic Church to be named pope, taking the name Pope Leo XIV.
After white smoke emerged from the chimney at the Sistine Chapel Thursday afternoon, the Vatican announced Pope Leo XIV as the first-ever American pope.
Since the start of the season, Cubs fans have been wondering two things: When will the team acquire another pitcher and when will Cade Horton make his debut?
The Chicago Cubs may be in the midst of a two-game losing skid and just a couple days removed from an ugly, ugly 14-5 extra innings loss to the San Francisco Giants, but fans did get some positive news on Thursday.

White smoke flew over the Vatican today as a Chicagoan was named the first American Pope
It’s a historic day in the Vatican as Cardinal Robert Prevost was elected the Pope by the Conclave who have been sequestered in the Sistine Chapel since yesterday. Prevost took the name Pope Leo XIV, which is presumed to be an homage to his prioritization of social justice issues, fitting for a man who spent most...
On Thursday. Des Moines Register writer Tommy Birch reported that the Chicago Cubs are calling up their n0. 2 prospect Cade Horton. Horton will likely make his MLB debut on Saturday, which was slated to be Shota Imanaga's next start before he went on the injured list with a hamstring strain earlier this week.

It’s not impossible.
Truth be told, this article would have worked better if the Cubs hadn’t been shut out Sunday and limited to one run Wednesday.
But this idea’s been floating in my head for a while, since the Cubs have been leading MLB in runs per game for much of the 2025 season, already scoring in double figures eight times (they had 22 such games all of last...
The Chicago Cubs had to discuss making a difficult decision before their three-game series against the New York Mets this weekend. Following a two-game slide to the San Francisco Giants on Thursday, Cubs manager Craig Counsell said he still needed to pencil in a starting pitcher for Saturday.

The Cubs reliever had a really, really bad game Tuesday.
I don’t have to rehash how bad Ryan Pressly’s outing was Tuesday night at Wrigley Field in the 11th inning against the Giants. You probably saw it, or if you didn’t, you can read the boxscore line.
After a rough start this year, Pressly had put together 10 straight scoreless appearances and recorded two wins and three saves in that span. The Cubs won seven of the 10 games.
But...
More shakeups are likely for the Chicago Cubs‘ pitching staff in the near future. In the short term, the Cubs are making their toughest choice of the season as to whether or not they will call up Cade Horton to take injured starting pitcher Shota Imanaga’s role on Saturday against the New York Mets.

Cubs bats come up short in a 3-1 loss.
Well, the loss to Robbie Ray and the Giants wasn’t particularly surprising. The Cubs have had a little bit of trouble with left-handed starters. It could be small sample size, but the Cubs are only 5-4 against lefties as opposed to 17-12 against righties. The overall numbers are very good against lefties, so this will probably work out over time. But Ray has been throwing well and I’m not...
