The 2022 Chicago Cubs season was the 151st season of the Chicago Cubs franchise, the 147th in the National League, and the Cubs' 107th season at Wrigley Field. The Cubs were managed by David Ross, in his third year as Cubs manager as members of Major League Baseball's National League Central. The Cubs began the season at home against the Milwaukee Brewers on April 1 and finished the season on the road against the Cincinnati Reds on October 5. With their loss on September 17, the Cubs were officially eliminated from playoff contention for the second consecutive season.[1] The Cubs finished the season 74–88, 19 games out of first place.

Previous season

The Cubs finished the 2021 season 71–91 to finish in fourth place in the Central Division failing to make the playoffs for only the second time since 2014. The season also marked the first time since 2014 that the Cubs finished with a losing record and the first time since 2013 that the Cubs lost at least 91 games.[2]

Offseason

Front office changes

On October 15, 2021, the Cubs announced they had hired the assistant general manager for the Cleveland Guardians, Carter Hawkins, as the team's new general manager.[3] On October 25, the club announced they had hired Ehsan Bokhari as assistant GM.[4]

Coaching changes

On March 11, 2022, the Cubs announced that manager David Ross had signed a three-year contract extension through the 2024 season with an option for 2025.[5]

Hitting coach Anthony Iapoce was fired following the season.[6] Shortly thereafter, the team hired Tampa Bay minor league hitting coordinator Greg Brown as the new hitting coach.[7] On November 15, 2021, the Cubs announced they had parted ways with associate pitching, catching, and strategy coach Mike Borzello.[8] Additionally, assistant director Brad Mills departed the team. The team further named Daniel Moskos as the new assistant pitching coach. Johnny Washington was later named assistant hitting coach.[9]

Lockout

See main article: 2021–22 Major League Baseball lockout. The expiration of the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the Major League Baseball Players Association occurred on December 1, 2021 with no new agreement in place.[10] As a result, the team owners voted unanimously to lockout the players stopping all free agency and trades.[11] [12]

The Cubs officially signed three players, including free agent pitcher Marcus Stroman, prior to the lockout being put in place.[13]

On March 10, 2022, the MLB and MLBPA agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement, thus ending the lockout.[14] [15] Although MLB previously announced that several series would be canceled due to the lockout, the agreement provides for a 162-game season, with originally canceled games to be made up via doubleheaders.[16]

Rule changes

Pursuant to the new CBA, several new rules were instituted for the 2022 season:[17] [18]

Due to the shortened season as a result of the lockout, MLB instituted temporary rules for the 2022 season including increasing roster size to 28 through May 1 and starting extra innings with a runner on second base.[19]
