Is it time for a new Ricketts to run the Cubs?
Tom Ricketts needs to do something. Even in hiding from everyone except one reporter he believed he could use, Ricketts needs to order something done.
A trade. Yeah, that’s it. Ricketts needs to trade someone. Maybe he’ll trade Matt Garza...Tags: Sports, Wrigleyville, Thomas Ricketts, Jeremiah Wright, Kerry Wood

Rogers: Cubs' Wood smart enough to call it a day
Good call by Kid K. Kerry Wood is getting it right with his decision to retire, whether that happens later today or at some point this weekend. He’s ridden his troublesome right arm to the very end of the trail and is smart enough to call it a day....

Sveum serene in face of stress
Perhaps the biggest difference between manager Dale Sveum and his three immediate predecessors — Dusty Baker, Lou Piniella and Mike Quade — is Sveum's postgame demeanor. Whether Sveum is upset at what just transpired, he doesn't wear his...

Reader Q&A: Paul Sullivan's Cubs mailbag
Why can't Carlos Marmol find his arm slot or confidence at Des Moines instead of ruining outstanding jobs by Cubs starting pitchers, as if they don't have enough problems with no offensive support. If I was Ryan Dempster I'd punch Dale Sveum in the nose....

Splitting closer role gives Sveum daily decision
MILWAUKEE — Now that Rafael Dolis and James Russell are sharing the Cubs closer role, manager Dale Sveum has to make a daily decision on which one will be the guy. "Going in, you're like, 'OK, tonight you probably don't have to think too hard about...

Cubs' Marmol loses job again
If it seems to Cubs fans they that have been here before with Carlos Marmol, it's because they have. Remember the middle of July, when then-manager Mike Quade gave his closer a "timeout" to work on mechanics in bullpen sessions after he blew three...

Readers Q&A: Paul Sullivan's Cubs mailbag
Now that the Cubs have been mathematically eliminated from 2012 and 2013 postseason contention, how bare do you see Theo Epstein stripping the Cubs?

Some positive signs for Cubs
There's no bad time to dominate a game. But the Cubs badly needed their best pitcher to slam the door Thursday, and that's exactly what mini-volcano Matt Garza did for them. I asked Garza if he had felt this would be a big start for him because his...

Short of finding Patrick Sharp, here's how Hawks fans can help
The Blackhawks had all kinds of airplane trouble trying to get back to Chicago on Sunday after Game 5 in Arizona.

Cubs brass: This isn't rebuilding year
MESA, Ariz. — Despite appearances, two words not in the Cubs' vocabulary this spring are "patience" and "rebuilding."

Castro, Sveum form quick bond
MESA, Ariz. — Cubs shortstop Starlin Castro has been in camp only three days, but he's already bonding with new manager Dale Sveum.
Perhaps it's because Sveum is a former shortstop, or maybe it's because Castro was sometimes the recipient of former...Tags: Robin Yount, Sports, National League Central, Dale Sveum, Thomas Ricketts

Soriano: Project renewal
MESA, Ariz. — His days with the Cubs haven't been the best of Alfonso Soriano's career, except maybe when he deposits paychecks. Since signing that $136 million contract before the 2006 season, Soriano has seen respect for him spiral downward as...
