Enhanced Box Score: Brewers 4, Cubs 2 – June 28, 2024

The Cubs May Have Caught a Bit of a Break in the Upcoming Phillies Series
Oh for a world where the goings on of the top teams in the league would actually matter to the Cubs. If the Cubs were competitive to enough of a degree, then the performances of the Dodgers or Braves or...

REPORT: The Vultures Have Begun Scouting the Cubs Ahead of the Trade Deadline

That Bullpen Performance Really Stood Out to Me
It would not be accurate to say the Cubs have NEVER had a solely good set of relief performances in a game this year, because they have. Yesterday's win was not necessarily a unicorn in that respect. Rare for this...
