Awful season aside, Cubs on the right track
Nineteen cents. That's what tickets in the third row of Section 533 were advertised at on StubHub Monday afternoon. As for the rest of Wrigley Field, it looks like most of those tickets couldn't be given away. No surprise there, not with the Bears...

Your Morning Phil: Miller, Feldman, A.J.
Talking baseball while wondering how Tom Thibodeau is going to survive until Derrick Rose returns: 1. To say that Marvin Miller was as tough as nails is to compliment the strength of nails. Miller has passed away at the age of 95, and somewhere there...Tags: Scott Baker, Bud Selig, Tyler Flowers, Scott Feldman, Arbitration

Cubs can only improve in 2013 (but don't bet on it)
The Cubs were built to lose 100 games, so what was with the obsession to avoid it? The actual issue is losing 100 games and still not getting the top pick in the draft. So Cub. I can understand players not wanting to be a part of 100 losses. I...

Waiting for a deal, Theo. Waiting. Wait--ing.
Maybe you blame Cubs team President Theo Epstein for failing to take every step required to execute the trade of Ryan Dempster to Atlanta. Maybe you blame Dempster for failing to live up to his word that he would waive his no-trade rights for certain...

Cubs now worse; but organization better, at least in theory
The Cubs are not a better team today without Ryan Dempster, Paul Maholm, Reed Johnson and Geovany Soto. They would be even worse without Matt Garza, and that still might happen by the Aug. 30 waiver deadline. Either way, though, the Cubs organization is...

Ranting about the mentally weak Cubs
The Cubs traded pitchers and one regular, so how did they almost get no-hit on Tuesday night? The Cubs still had their regular left-handed lineup available, the one they would’ve used at any other point in the season, so how did they almost get no-...

Epstein played nice with Dempster, and here's why
The more I read Theo Epstein’s alleged defense of Ryan Dempster’s killing the aborted Atlanta deal, the more I think the Cubs president comes back to blaming Dempster for the aborted Atlanta deal. Epstein, in fact, should've blamed Dempster....

Ruiz on pace for career year
When it comes to deciding who's going to play where defensively, Phillies manager Charlie Manuel has loads of flexibility. Ty Wigginton can play first, second or third base. Laynce Nix can man left field or first. John Mayberry Jr. can go to any of the...

Everything's Jake with the Sox
During spring training, Jake Peavy said he wouldn’t try to become a pitcher who relies on guile after surgery robbed him of the power he used to have. Peavy lied, and good for him. He has become as smart as he is good. When he lost the plate in...

Power rankings: No. 26 Cubs
En route to 91 losses last season and a radical regime change, the Cubs were outscored by 102 runs. As it happens, half of those can be put down to talent and half of them to playing the game well.
Bill James tracks manufactured runs, both created and...Tags: Washington Nationals, David DeJesus, Starlin Castro, Travis Wood, Randy Wells

Decision looming about Betancourt
The Phillies FilesLooks like Charlie Manuel wants to see what some of his left-handed hitters can do against a left-handed pitcher. Manuel has five left-handed hitters starting against Braves pitcher Paul Maholm. Jermaine Mitchell is playing center field and leading off;... -
