In addition to covering the Cubs on Prose and Ivy, I will now also be writing about baseball in general for BaseballDigest.com. While some of the articles will be Cubs-centric, others will not. It will really all depend on what assignments…

Spring Training: Good Place to Get Your Mind Right, Too
Posted: March 4, 2011 in DailiesTags: 2011, Cubs, MLB, Quade, Ramirez, Silva, Spring Training, Zambrano
I like that they throw the Cubs Convention every year and I can’t wait to attend one myself one day. Living in New York City makes it rather challenging to do so but when this last one came around, I…
Does Quade Really Want to Hurt Them?
Posted: March 1, 2011 in DailiesTags: 2011, MLB, Quade, Spring Training
You have to love Spring Training. The games
don’t count towards anything real except evaluating players,
figuring out potential line-ups and planning ahead for
potential call-ups. However, many take it very seriously.
Today was a great example of Quade
taking…
So Far, Quade’s a Hit…But Too Much of a Good Thing?
Posted: February 28, 2011 in DailiesTags: 2011, baseball, Cubs, Garza, MLB, Piniella, Quade, Spring Training, Zambrano
Sometimes when people try too hard or try to be too cool, they fail miserably. That’s why Quade has to be careful not to be too much like Kraegen in the above video. I like that Mike Quade is making this…
Want To Make Starlin Castro Nervous?
Posted: November 30, 2010 in DailiesTags: 2011, Castro, Cubs, Jeter, MLB, Spring Training, Yankees
From the folks over at The Beckett Blog, a photo of Derek Jeter, the Yankees’ pride and joy and captain…proudly featured posing in a Cubs uniform. Hysterical. Although it certainly would trump the Cardinals announcement that they signed Ryan Theriot to play shortstop…
Rami Looks Good In a Tie & Sometimes Championships Are Simply Child’s Play
Posted: March 23, 2010 in DailiesTags: 2010, Chicago Cubs, Cubs, MLB, Ramirez, Spring Training
Cubs tied the Royals today in Spring competition and it was great to see Rami step up to the plate, look healthy and chalk up an RBI to contribute to a 5-5 final score after nine innings. I think the…
One City, Two Teams, Three Home Runs
Posted: March 3, 2009 in DailiesTags: 2009, Chicago Cubs, Cubs, Fans, Gregg, Marmol, Marshall, New York, Soriano, Spring Training
One City. New York City. The
city that never sleeps. I can attest that while the
city never sleeps, I for one am again looking forward to
doing so this evening. The new job is seriously a TON
of stuff…
Dempster v. Peavy and…Curt Schilling?
Posted: March 1, 2009 in DailiesTags: 2009, Chicago Cubs, Cubs, Dempster, Peavy, Schilling, Spring Training
Arguably the Cubs MVP of last season, Ryan
Dempster takes the mound today against San Diego and coveted
starting Padres pitcher, Jake Peavy. Talk about a game
that has something for everyone. Padres fans get to see
how their team…

Observations and Salutations
Posted: February 28, 2009 in DailiesTags: 2009, bradley, Chicago Cubs, Cubs, Lilly, Piniella, Ramirez, Spring Training, White Sox
Three games into Spring Training and the
Cubs are 3-0. Sweet. Hoffpauir has looked great
at the plate in both power stats and patience. I kind
of feel bad for guys like Hoffpauir and Fox though because it
seems like…
