Spellman's Scorecard: Not best of times for Allstate Arena May 17, 2013 12:00 AM
It hasn't been the best of weeks for Allstate Arena general manager Pat Nagle. First, he discovers the new owner of the Chicago Rush has been accused of not paying the team's bills and thus, for the second time in recent years, the team is taken over by the league — once again leaving the future of the franchise in limbo. And then it's announced Thursday that another Allstate tenant, DePaul, will soon be playing its games in a new downtown arena.

Cubs gaining confidence with each series win May 16, 2013 12:00 AM
As long and as grinding as baseball seasons are, they go by pretty quickly. Believe it or not, the Cubs have reached the quarter pole of the 2013 season. They scored a small moral victory Wednesday night, moving percentage points out of last place and improving to 17-23. A year ago after 40 games, the Cubs were 15-25, having fallen 10 games under .500 for the first time in the season on the way to a 61-101 finish.

Rockies rock Cubs, 9-4 May 14, 2013 12:00 AM
Carlos Gonzalez homered twice and finished with a career-high five hits to lead the struggling Colorado Rockies to a 9-4 victory over the Cubs on Tuesday night. Gonzalez was 5 for 5 and fell a triple shy of a cycle, and Eric Young Jr. also homered for the Rockies, who had lost five of their last six.

Garza eager to return to Cubs’ rotation May 14, 2013 12:00 AM
Pitcher Matt Garza will make his next rehab start Thursday at Iowa. He says he will have a say in whether he comes off the disabled list then or needs another minor-league appearance.

Villanueva still in Cubs’ rotation ... for now May 14, 2013 12:00 AM
The storyline of the day often changes from pregame to postgame. Take Tuesday, for instance. Before the Cubs’ 9-4 loss to the Colorado Rockies, Cubs manager Dale Sveum mentioned the Cubs might go with a six-man pitching rotation when Matt Garza comes off the disabled list later this month. That all looked to be a moot point a few hours later, after Carlos Villanueva got rocked for 12 hits and 7 runs in 5 innings.

Cubs' Jackson gets first win, beats Strasburg, Nationals May 11, 2013 12:00 AM
A day before facing each other as opposing starting pitchers, Edwin Jackson and Stephen Strasburg spent some time chatting as former teammates. "Told him I'd be ready for the gas he's throwing," Jackson recounted. Easy to joke around after the way Jackson finally picked up his first win of 2013 — and first win under the $52 million, four-year contract that took him from the Washington Nationals to the Cubs.

With runners on, Cubs hitters hit bottom May 9, 2013 12:00 AM
The Cubs's .183 batting average with runners in scoring position is the lowest in the major leagues. Daily Herald Cubs writer Bruce Miles says it's not because the Cubs' hitters aren't "clutch." It's because their approaches at the plate aren't working.
