However, it appears team president Kevin Warren, chairman George McCaskey, and Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson […]

The most polarizing player on the 2023-24 Blackhawks is about to find himself at the center of even more uncertainty.

The 2024 MLB Draft is not until the middle of July, but the top of the draft class is already starting to take shape.

If you bet on Mike Tauchman to hit a home run in the Chicago Cubs game against the Houston Astros on Tuesday night, you probably won on fantastic odds.

Chicago Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger welcomed the Houston Astros back to Wrigley Field for the first time in eleven years by depositing a baseball in the top row of the right-field bleachers.

Caleb Williams opened a small Pandora’s box on Tuesday when he revealed that Washington wide receiver Rome Odunze, another projected top 10 pick, was on the same flight to Detroit for the NFL draft as him. The USC quarterback isn’t dumb. He’s aware Odunze is mocked regularly to the Chicago Bears with their #9 pick, […]

One thing about GM Ryan Poles is he’s not somebody who does things by the book. He’s never afraid to think outside the box if he feels it will help his team get better. One of the more innovative things he’s done this off-season was the handling of quarterback Caleb Williams on his pre-draft visit. […]

It had to be done. The Chicago Cubs could no longer afford to have Kyle Hendricks start for them every fifth day and on Tuesday the team placed the 2016 World Series hero on the 15-day injured list.
