According to Paul Sullivan, Lou Piniella has named Kevin Gregg as the team’s closer. I was wrong. I thought the competition between Gregg and Marmol was an imaginary one, but Gregg clearly out-pitched Marmol in spring training and Lou took that into consideration. I don&rsquo...

Zambrano pitched good enough to win, but Kevin Gregg had other ideas.
Hoffpauir looked completely clueless in his first three AB’s the hit a long, long HR to put the Cubs ahead in the top of the 8th. He, Soto, and Fukudome looked awful tonight (excepting the HR, of course...

Over the weekend, Kevin Gregg blew a pair of save opportunities against Florida, his former employer. Sunday's collapse felt like it may have been the signature loss for the '09 Cubs. This was Gregg's two-day line: 1.1 IP, 6 H, 5 ER, 3 HR, 2 K. That's not really an...

Lou Piniella has mellowed by all accounts in his later years, and he's been incredibly patient with closer Kevin Gregg this season. But the last straw may have fallen Monday night in San Diego; Gregg keeps handing games away and the reeling Cubs can't stand for it any longer...

The Cubs need a closer....a competent closer that is. Closer Kevin Gregg has been erratic at best this season. Gregg has a pedestrian 4.47 ERA, has blown six saves, and has given up a whopping 12 home runs in 56 innings. After last night's debacle in San Diego, it looks like Cubs...
