The Closer

Who is the Cubs closer for next year? This guy. Kevin Gregg. What does that mean for the Cubs closer of 2008, Kerry Wood? Well, according to JH, it means "Thanks for Nothing. Enjoy your New Team." I am not sure if JH was concerned that I didn't really have a Cub to hate...

Cubs 2-1 Brewers: Macha Yosts Away the Game

Picimg_mlb_apr_07_8931
Overall, not a great game. The offense failed to solve the riddle of Jeff Suppan, and there was some shambolic defense by Fox and Bradley. Zambrano pitched well enough, registering a quality start in going 7 innings, and allowing just 1 run on 5 hits while walking 3 and K’...

New Guy f/x - Kevin Gregg

The Kerry Wood era has come to a close. Carlos Marmol is the Cubs' closer. Kevin Gregg is their veteran set-up guy (and insurance policy for Marmol). In the process, the Cubs save themselves several million dollars, and the risk that comes with a multi-year deal for Wood. This...

Cubs 2, Astros 3: Kepper Wins One

Well, that didn’t take long. In his first appearance of the season for the Houston Astros, Jeff Keppinger drove in the winning run off of Cubs reliever Kevin Gregg. I bet that made the Astros think the trade was worthwhile, regardless of who that player-to-be-named-later is....

Projecting the 2009 Cubs:  Ryan Dempster

Before we continue with this series, I need to point out that I made an accounting error with the previous 3 projections. Each individual projection was accurate, but for some dumb reason I was thinking replacement level was .350 rather than .300. I knew this, but had it stuck...

TMS Endorses Angel Guzman

Chicago_cubs_vs_f32c
Well it only took 6 blown saves and 12 home runs to finally get the point across that Kevin Gregg should not be our god damn closer.Unfortunately there's not much else available for alternatives. The fact that Carlos Marmol or John Grabow are even being considered for closing duties...

Should the Cubs Get in on Smoltz or Wagner?

Billy_wagner_120d
I haven't heard a word tying the Cubs to either player, but it seems like the Cubs could still use some help in the bullpen. As I mentioned Friday, Carlos Marmol's walk rate north of 8 per nine innings is historic....but not in a good way. Kevin Gregg is a perfectly capable...

This is turning out to be WAR-pie weekend. I got a request from a commenter for a Cubs WAR pie, so here it is. Sure enough, Kevin Gregg, with his -0.4 WAR, does not make the pie… What immediately jumps out at you about this pie is how small it is. The Cubs total team WAR, [...]

Cubs Rumors: Kevin Gregg

According to FoxSports.com and Ken Rosenthal, the Cubs have landed Kevin Gregg from the Florida Marlins. Ideally, Gregg would replace the departed Bob Howry due to free agency. If the Cubs could re-sign fan favorite Kerry Wood, a Cubs bullpen could go Gregg-Marmol-Wood. That back-end of the ...
