While the season ended sooner than we would have liked, it did indeed end. So now there’s nothing left but to hand out report cards for the players of each team. We’re continuing this series today with the Cubs infield. Javier Baez (203/238/360 0.0 fWAR) Trying to grade the performance of 2020 Cubs infielders is […]
While the season ended sooner than we would have liked, it did indeed end. So now there’s nothing left but to hand out report cards for the players of each team. We’re continuing this series today with the Cubs outfield. Albert Almora (167/265/200 -0.1 fWAR) Oy. 34 plate appearances, one extra base hit (a double). […]
While the season ended sooner than we would have liked, it did indeed end. So now there’s nothing left but to hand out report cards for the players of each team. We’re continuing this series today with Cubs bullpen. Jason Adam (13G, 13.2 IP, 3.29 ERA, 0 SV) In both the Garden of Eden and […]
The NL Cy Young race this year comes down to 4 starters: Jacob Degrom, Dinelson Lamet, Weirdo Trevor Bauer, and Yu Darvish. There may be a few others who’ll get votes: Clatyon Kershaw, Max Fried, Luis Catsillo, German Marquez, and Corbin Burnes will all get some attention and some votes.

Friday saw both the Cubs and White Sox’ truncated 2020 seasons come to an inglorious end, with the Cubs being dumped in a two game sweep by the Miami Marlins and the Sox losing in three games to the Oakland A’s. While both endings can certainly be seen as disappointing, they can each be viewed […]
Yu Darvish pitched well. Sixto Sanchez was really good — that kid has a future. However, the lack of a Cubs offense, as has been the case all year, means this is the last recap of the year. My frustration is going to make me put as much effort into this as the Cubs offense […]

So with no further ado, here’s what they came up with: Last time the Marlins were in the postseason: 2003 […]

The Cubs entered the day locked into the 3rd seed in the National League, having clinched the division crown the night before. The Sox could feasibly finish in first, second or be the wild card depending on their outcome combined […]
