5/13/24 Patrick Wisdom is thriving in new role on Chicago Cubs bench. Patrick Wisdom belted an insurance home run for the Chicago Cubs during their 5-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday in extra innings. Part of the reason why Wisdom is finding success this season is because of how selective Craig Counsell has been in deploying the slugger. On the season, as a whole, Wisdom is slashing .321/.441/.679 with a 212 wRC+ in 34 plate appearances. Wisdom is thriving against left-handed pitching this season as he is slashing .462/.588/.923 with a 307 wRC+ in 17 plate appearances.

5/04/24 Patrick Wisdom blasts moonshot for 1st home run of season to extend lead over Brewers. Sliding into the designated hitter role for Saturday afternoon's game against the Milwaukee Brewers, Patrick Wisdom came up short on an opportunity with the bases loaded in the first inning and seemed to have kept that in mind the rest of the afternoon.

4/18/24 Cubs add more offensive firepower, bring back a fan favorite from Triple-A Iowa. In the early going, the Chicago Cubs have routinely massacred left-handed pitching and, with the addition of Patrick Wisdom back into the mix, that lineup only gets more dangerous for opposing southpaws. Wisdom, who has amassed 76 home runs over the last three seasons, was spotted at Wrigley Field on Thursday afternoon - all but ensuring he'll be back in the Cubs lineup this weekend against the Marlins. The 32-year-old got off to a hot start at Triple-A Iowa as he worked his way back from a back injury, posting a 1.417 OPS in nine games, hitting three home runs and driving in 10. Wisdom has seen time in the outfield during the last week in Iowa, which is where he'll likely figure into the team's plans in the short term, with Seiya Suzuki out for the next month with an oblique injury.

3/23/24 Garrett Cooper makes Cubs Opening Day roster over Dominic Smith. An IL stint for Patrick Wisdom and Dominic Smith opting out of his minor league deal with the team cleared the way for veteran infielder Garrett Cooper to reportedly make the Chicago Cubs Opening Day roster. Anyone who regularly reads my work here knows that I've been high on what Cooper has to offer all spring long and have regularly said that if it came down to carrying either Wisdom or Cooper, I'm taking the latter. While that decision won't need to be made (at least not right now), Chicago now has a guy capable of platooning with Michael Busch at first and getting regular ABs as the DH. As for Smith, the road to playing time got a lot murkier once Chicago re-signed Cody Bellinger (not to mention, Cooper, who came in after Smith signed, as well).

3/22/24 Chicago Cubs News: Patrick Wisdom to open the season on IL as roster decisions loom.

3/13/24 Cubs walk off Brewers. A Cactus League game under the lights Tuesday in Mesa had the Chicago Cubs walk off the Milwaukee Brewers 6-5. Patrick Wisdom ended the game with a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth off Milwaukee reliever James Meeker. Starter Colin Rea was solid for the Crew working four hitless innings while striking out 7 with only one walk. The Cubs tallied four runs in the 5th as Abner Uribe gave up all four runs on four hits in just a third of an inning. Williams Contreras had a big night at the plate going three for four with four runs driven in. The Brewers are now 7-11 in spring games and they'll host the Chicago White Sox in Maryvale Wednesday afternoon.

3/05/24 Injury update: Cubs' Patrick Wisdom has one more hurdle to clear before returning. Last Thursday, the Cubs scratched Wisdom from the lineup, and he hasn't appeared in a game since. Wisdom targeted the Cubs' game Tuesday against the Royals to return to playing. Wisdom told manager Craig Counsell he could give about 75%. There are still three more weeks left in spring training.

3/04/24 Cubs Potential Starter Exits Game With Injury. Chicago Cubs Potential Starter Exits Spring Training Game With Injury Another issue has popped up for the Chicago Cubs after one of their potential starters exited their Spring Training game early. Author: Brad Wakai Publish date: Mar 4, 2024 7:30 PM EST In this story: Chicago Cubs One of the biggest questions the Chicago Cubs are facing during Spring Training is who will emerge as their starting third baseman. There are currently three players in the running between Patrick Wisdom, Nick Madrigal and Christopher Morel. In an ideal world, it would be Morel who shows improved defense and is able to completely take over that role for the 2024 season and beyond. His bat must be kept in the Cubs'

2/24/24 Cubs' Patrick Wisdom tried out a new winter program for the 2024 season. The video of Cubs corner infielder Patrick Wisdom going through his Driveline Baseball assessment made its rounds through the group chat. In order to collect motion capture data, Driveline will have players either hit or pitch in their compression shorts, with nodes stuck all over their bodies. Left-handed pitcher Drew Smyly, who went to Driveline in Arizona this winter, was spared the same fate. “I told them, you can post videos of me throwing plyo balls [fully clothed,]” Smyly said.

BCB After Dark is the place for you to talk baseball, music, movies, or anything else you need to get off your chest, as long as it is within the rules of the site. Additionally, my dream of a World Series blizzard took a hit as the Astros romped over the Twins, 9-1. Still, that only gives Houston a two-games-to-one advantage in the best-of-five Division Series. Last night I asked you about possibly non-tendering a pair of Cubs third basemen who are eligible for arbitration. Fully 49 percent of you want the Cubs to non-tender Patrick Wisdom.
