The patriarch of the family that owns the Chicago Cubs is getting back in the newsgathering business. The Omaha World-Herald reported on Sunday that billionaire businessman and philanthropist Joe Ricketts is hiring staff to launch an online national news source called Straight Arrow News.

With the third pick in the 2014 MLB Draft, the White Sox selected Carlos Rodon. That was one pick before the Cubs picked Kyle Schwarber — and it was said by some at the time that had Rodon been on the board when the Cubs’ turn came up, they likely would have taken him instead of Schwarber. Well.
Armed robberies reported in Rogers Park, Edgewater: police The first robbery happened about 7 p.m. Wednesday in the 1200 block of West Thorndale Avenue, police said.
