The Cubs have decided to try to mend a broken bullpen that’s allowed a league high 11 blown saves by trading for a couple of relievers that were placed on their respective team’s trading block. First, the Cubs traded for the Orioles Dillon Tate while giving up Brennen Davis, a B prospect in AAA. Next, the Cubs and Rays struck a deal with Shawn Armstrong going to Chicago for AA SS Cristian Hernandez.

The Pete Crow-Armstrong era may be beginning in Chicago. The Cubs, looking to add a spark to a team currently struggling in last place in the Central, have called up their top prospect and added him to today’s lineup vs. the Brew Crew at Wrigley.

Welcome to the 2026 Reapers season! Not much changed from the team last year, hoping to have guys develop and finally start seeing some results. The Reapers traded away Benintendi in the offseason and lost Wes Kath on waivers. This year is a make or break for a lot of guys on the team.


Lineup:

Dominic Fletcher – super consistent

Bobby Kirby – was the Reapers first round pick last year he gets the shot at third. Is a 78 overall high B potential 21 year old.

Colson Montgomery – solid year last year hoping he continues to develop

Luis Robert Jr – he’s back cross your fingers he doesn’t get injured

Andrew Vaughn – definitely a make or break year. He keeps developing so that’s encouraging

Joey Bart – giving him a shot at DH

Oscar Colas – was terrible last year when he got called up was good in spring though

Korey Lee – solid behind the dish more of a place holder for Quero

David Fletcher – gave him a one year deal to play second


Bench:

Nick Senzel – brought back on a 1yr deal was solid last year

Nasim Nunez – was solid last year

Christian Pache – brought him back might be more for an defensive replacement

Brooks Baldwin – Rookie utility guy switch hitter was very good in the minor last year and had a good spring

Kyle Farmer – was solid last year brought him back again


Rotation:

Garrett Crochet – hoping he can step up and become a number one

Mike Soroka – was okay definitely hoping for a bounce back

Jake Woodford – Hoping for a bounce back as well

Jairo Iriarte – not great when I called him last year hopefully he can make an impact

Drew Thorpe – definitely a make or break for him hasn’t been good


Bullpen:

LRP – Devi Garcia – was solid last year

MRP – Steven Wilson – mister consistent

MRP- Ryan Yarbrough – rule 5 pick

MRP – Jorge Acala – hoping for a solid year

MRP- Ron Marinaccio – Waiver pickup from the Yankees wasn’t good last year hoping for a bounce back

SU – Justin Lawrence – gave him a 1yr deal

CL – Nate Pearson – hoping he can improve on a solid year last year



Top prospects:

Grant Taylor

Jacob Gonzalez

Noah Shultz

Edgar Quero

Samuel Zavala



The Reapers have the first pick in the draft this year. Going forward I'll be doing a season recap and a beginning season overview. Will also do updates if anything major happens such as trades or injuries.

Athletics get series victory in last full series of May

The Oakland Athletics will go under .500 once again for the month of May but they did win their last full series of the month. Oakland won their series against the first place Rays, two games to one.

The A's scored the first run of the series in the very first inning when Shea Langeliers knocked in Esteury Ruiz who singled and worked his way around the bases. The Rays quickly matched that and then took the lead in the third inning when Rene Pinto and Josh Lowe combined for a pair of doubles to give Tampa the 2-1 lead. They added on in the fourth when Isaac Paredes hit his 13th homerun of the season. Oakland then went on to score in the 5th, 6th and 8th innings to take a 6-3 lead. Tampa would score two more in the bottom half of that inning before Lucas Erceg got his 14th save of the season in the ninth inning.

Game two was a low scoring matchup as the Rays took it, 2-1.

Esteury Ruiz was big in game three as he had three hits, a homerun and twp RBIS as Oakland won the game in extras, 4-3.

Oakland now looks toward June as they finish May with the first of three in Atlanta (30-26/2nd NL East/0.5 behind Phillies).
