7/14/24 Chicago Cubs' Righty Joins Unfortunate Team History in Loss on Saturday. Unfortunately, defensive miscues were a huge part of this story for the Cubs, as they helped lead to the drubbing. Starting pitcher Hayden Wesneski made his own error in the bottom of the first inning which helped to open the floodgates. Wesneski ended up going only four innings in the game, getting saddled with 11 total runs. Hayden Wesneski is the first Cubs pitcher to allow 7 or more *unearned* runs in a game since Chuck Rainey in 1984.

7/08/24 Steady demeanor a key to Cubs pitcher Shota Imanaga's All-Star berth. Hayden Wesneski had just pitched one of the best games of his career, throwing 6 1/3 scoreless innings in the Cubs' 5-0 win Sunday over the Angels. When he was asked about his own outing, Wesneski was matter of fact and more concerned with helping the Cubs get a needed victory than what he did personally. When he was asked about Shota Imanaga, Wesneski gushed. It just seems like every day is a good day for him.

AP By Jimmy Hascup | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com To be a New York Yankees prospect around the trade deadline is akin to being the credits one accumulates and uses for an upgrade — only this time the grand prize is a World Series. One of their former prospect pitchers, Hayden Wesneski, a reliever for the Chicago Cubs, told The Athletic in a story published Monday that the Yankees' minor-league players , especially pitchers, are nothing more than an avenue to help their pursuit of a title.

5/04/24 Cubs hope to get bullpen in order vs. Brewers. Chicago's bullpen has been scuffling, and it will attempt to get things sorted out on Saturday afternoon when the Cubs continue a three-game set with the visiting Milwaukee Brewers. It looked like Chicago was going to take the series opener on Friday, as it took a 1-0 lead into the eighth after getting 6 1/3 shutout innings from starter Hayden Wesneski. Richard Lovelady recorded the last two outs of the seventh and the first of the eighth, but Adbert Alzolay then got shelled, giving up three runs on four hits in just one-third of an inning. The Cubs' offense failed to make up any ground, and Milwaukee escaped with a 3-1 victory to extend its winning streak to three games.

9/14/23 Chicago Cubs: It may be time to move on from Hayden Wesneski. Hayden Wesneski has been given a lot of chances to succeed with the Chicago Cubs this year, but it may be time to move on from the young right-hander. Going into the 2023 season, everyone was excited about the high upside of 25-year old and he even won a spot in the starting rotation after a great Spring Training. Unfortunately, this preseason performance, where he tossed five starts with a 2.12 ERA, has been the highlight of Wesneski's year. Wesneski has been stung by hard contact all year and he's averaging more than two home runs given up for every nine innings pitched (19 total on the year).

7/26/23 Hayden Wesneski is heating up in Iowa. On July 4th, The Chicago Cubs sent right-handed pitcher Hayden Wesneski down to Iowa where he has been stringing together some solid starts. In his three starts for Iowa in July, Wesneski owns a 1.64 ERA with 19 strikeouts and just 2 walks. Since he was transferred to the bullpen when Kyle Hendricks came back from the IL in June, Wesneski was sent down to get his arm stretched out for starting duties again. This suggests that the Cubs will move one of their starters at the trade deadline with the most likely candidate being Marcus Stroman.
