Hey all,
I've been going on baseball message boards looking for information about the best sources to go for team news. For Cubs news, where do you all go? Is it just ESPN and MLB.com, or are there other online sources that are trustworthy?
Thanks in advance. This board is one of the best Cubs ones I've seen. You guys have a good thing going.

If it's stats and such, I use Baseball Reference(which you can find on the right) or ESPN.
Ace has been covering all of the latest happenings on his new blog Bleacher Nation, also on the right.
And The Newspapers:
Chicago Tribune Sports
Chicago Sun-Times Sports
Daily Herald Sports
Really though, if there's anything going on, you'll find it here.

For straight Cubs info, you can get it in a number of places. Stick around here and you'll see most info within minutes of it coming out. Otherwise there are the big names, like Espn, cubs.com, mlb.com. Other places like all the Chicago newspapers. And of course, Bleacher Nation.

Welcome, roh. I honestly think this place right here is the best place to find all the latest Cubs news (with apologies to Bleacher Nation, of course...).

Pro Sports Daily is a nice spot that collects articles on the Cubs:
http://www.prosportsdaily.com/mlb/cubs/
I'm 100% fine with this. I'm just glad there's an actual plan in place that isn't, "Let's load up on retreads and hope we get lucky." I'm a little tired of that plan.

You will find any Cubs news faster here than just about any of the news sites out there.

Not only Cubs stuff, but that guy Tim Dierkes doesn't miss one single thing. Plus he's a Cubs fan.

It's really a terrific site now and he doesn't publish the crazy crap like that anymore. I'm on there more than anywhere but here and my blog.
