With how well Pedro Ramirez has played for the Chicago Cubs. Is Matt Shaw now worth being looked at as a trade piece for a Cubs team that needs to acquire more pitching this offseason due to the departures of Shota Imanaga, Jameson Taillon, and potentially Matthew Boyd. With limited space on the field for Matt Shaw to get reps for his development. This might be a chance for the Cubs to move him at his highest value. View full video -

Video: The Cubs' Offensive Paradox
Steven Ryan posted a topic in North Side Baseball Front Page News
The Chicago Cubs offense may appear to be statistically one of the best in baseball, led by the likes of Alex Bregman, Seiya Suzuki, and Pete Crow-Armstrong. But their offense day-to-day can be very frustrating to watch. Struggles with runners in scoring position and generally having days where it's difficult to produce runs. But their rankings in key offensive categories say otherwise. View full video -

The rollercoaster ride of the Cubs' bullpen comes into play every time they need someone to step up and close out baseball games. Ben Brown and Justin Steele, both currently on rehab assignments, could come into play a pivotal role for the bullpen in September and October. View full video

Javier Assad has maybe been the most flexible pitcher for the Chicago Cubs all season. Whether he starts, comes out of the bullpen, or is fresh from Triple-A, Assad has posted a 3.59 ERA with a 6-1 record this season. He could be a key contributor for this team down the stretch and into October! View full video

The X factor for the Cubs this postseason is Michael Busch. After a tremendous 2025 — including a big October — he's taken a step back in 2026. But if he can find his 2025 form when it matters most and help carry the Cubs to a championship, every regular-season struggle gets forgotten in a hurry. View full video

With September around the corner. Who the Cubs call up could have an impact on the division race? Cubs have a bunch of pitchers expected to return from the injured list and a potential top prospect could maybe get his first taste of the big leagues. Players discussed include Ben Brown, Edward Cabrera, Hunter Harvey, Shelby Miller, Hoby Milner, Justin Steele, Matt Shaw, Kevin Alcantara, and Owen Ayers. View full video

Don't write off a division title quite yet; there's a path for the Chicago Cubs to catch the Milwaukee Brewers. Sitting only 4 games back this race is not even close to being over. Cubs still have to face the Brewers 7 more times and with the Brewers traveling to Los Angeles to face the Dodgers. The Cubs could close the gap as soon as this weekend View full video

The Cubs were very active at the deadline, and maybe got their future starter for years to come as well. Clay Holmes is a prime candidate for the Cubs to sign to an extension before uncertainty sets in with the expected lockout this winter. With Holmes's high groundball rate paired with the Cubs' elite defense, this is a match made in heaven. View full video

The Mariners are reportedly open to trading breakout right-hander Emerson Hancock at the deadline, and the Cubs could be a match — Chicago has been fielding interest in outfielder Seiya Suzuki as they look to retool. A Hancock-for-Suzuki swap would give Seattle the middle-of-the-order bat it has lacked all year while restocking Chicago's rotation. Nothing's close yet, but with both sides known to be active before August 3, it's a rumor worth keeping an eye on. View full video

Pete Crow-Armstrong has gone from rising star to legitimate NL MVP candidate. In this video, I break down why PCA deserves to be at the top of the MVP conversation, from his elite defense and game-changing speed to the impact he’s had at the plate and on the Cubs’ success this season. Is he doing enough to take home the National League MVP award, or is he still being overlooked? Watch the full breakdown and let me know where you think Pete Crow-Armstrong ranks in the MVP race.

Michael Wacha may not be the flashiest name on the trade market, but he could be one of the smartest additions for the Cubs. The veteran right-hander has been a model of consistency, attacking the strike zone, limiting walks, and providing quality innings every fifth day. With Chicago looking to reinforce its rotation for a postseason push, Wacha offers a reliable middle-of-the-rotation arm who wouldn't require the prospect haul of a true ace. His experience, durability, and ability to keep his team in games make him an ideal fit to stabilize the Cubs' pitching staff down the stretch. View full video
