Jose Urquidy struggles as White Sox are routed by Rangers; rotation picture remains murky
After entering the game behind an opener and flummoxing Cubs hitters for six scoreless innings on only 68 pitches last week, White Sox right-hander Jose Urquidy needed 65 pitches just to get through the top of the second inning Monday night in his first start since 2023. Without command of his changeup, Urquidy walked four and was unable to put away Rangers hitters, allowing six hits and five runs

Does rookie Hagen Smith's dominance out of White Sox' bullpen point to future in rotation?
No one spins the ball quite like White Sox rookie left-hander Hagen Smith. After pitching two perfect innings to preserve a scoreless tie with the Mets before teammate Tristan Peters’ game-winning home run Sunday, the fifth overall pick of the 2024 draft now has struck out 13 of 31 batters in eight innings since being called up to the majors Aug. 8. That walk-off home run by the Cubs’ Pete Crow-Ar

PHOENIX – A season ago, Michael Busch was the Cubs’ home-run leader. But after smacking 34 bombs in 2025, the first baseman came into Monday sixth on the roster with just 16 this year. It’s not that he hasn’t been effective – his .352 on-base percentage was the highest of his young major league career – but he hasn’t been the same lineup-carrying presence he was at times last season. The Cubs’ off

PHOENIX — You might have heard that the Cubs are in a playoff race. While there’s still more than a month of baseball before the postseason begins and the Cubs play their most important games of the year, the games are pretty important already, with the Brewers threatening to pull away in the NL Central and teams like the Phillies and Padres hot on the Cubs’ heels in the wild-card standings.
