4/24/25	Cubs blasted for 'very bad' offseason trade amid 27-year-old's Marlins breakout. Snap judgments in Major League Baseball are often unwise. The Chicago Cubs made a seemingly small trade this offseason that now looks as though it may have been ill-fated. On Dec. 29, the Cubs sent first baseman Matt Mervis, a former top prospect who was blocked at his position by fellow youngster Michael Busch, to the Miami Marlins in exchange for another ex-top farmhand, utility infielder Vidal Brujan.

4/24/24	Chicago Cubs slugger Matt Mervis may be on his last chance with the major league team. Matt Mervis is finally returning to the Windy City. After mashing through the minors to start the season, the Chicago Cubs are rightfully giving the lefty first baseman another chance to prove himself beyond his cup of coffee with the big league team last year. Alas, this may also be Mash's last real shot with the big league team, albeit not through much fault of his own. During the offseason, the Cubs acquired heralded first base prospect Michael Busch from the Dodgers who has thus far blossomed in his new home and is seen as a leading candidate for Rookie of the Year.

4/23/24	Report: Cubs call up Mervis, Wesneski. CHICAGO — The Cubs are calling up Matt Mervis and Hayden Wesneski, according to a report. Tommy Birch, a beat reporter who covers the Iowa Cubs, gave the news Tuesday morning and said no corresponding moves have been made yet.

4/17/24	Chicago Cubs Prospects: Mash Mervis is begging to break our hearts again. Chicago Cubs first base prospect Matt Mervis is doing it again. Mervis is off to an incredibly hot start in Triple-A Iowa and he's making fans start to wonder if it's time to dust off their “Mash” Mervis t-shirts. The short answer is that we've been burned by that hot start before. In 2023, the Cubs made the decision to keep Matt Mervis in Triple-A for more than a month to start the season.

3/18/24	Latest Chicago Cubs roster cut may be final chance for popular prospect. With the Chicago Cubs planning on using a rotation of players as the designated hitter this season, there was a thought that Matt Mervis could make the roster as a left-handed power hitter. On a roster that includes Cody Bellinger, Michael Busch, and Patrick Wisdom, Mervis does not have a path to regular playing time at the Major League level as a first baseman. It was an opportunity that Mervis was afforded last season but struggled in his initial stint. Mervis posted a 46 wRC+ in 99 plate appearances at the Major League level last season before being demoted back to Triple-A Iowa. Source: https://cubbiescrib.com/posts/latest-chicago-cubs-...
10/10/23	Writing is on the wall that the Chicago Cubs do not value Matt Mervis. There was an expectation that first base prospect Matt Mervis would play an important role for the Chicago Cubs' offense in 2023 and that likely was the reason why the team did not fully address the first position last winter. The expectation was that Mancini and Hosmer would serve as stopgaps at the first base position until Mervis was ready. Source: https://cubbiescrib.com/posts/writing-is-on-the-wa...
7/19/23	Report reveals why Matt Mervis hasn't returned to Cubs' roster. With the Chicago Cubs continuing to get little-to-no production from their first basemen this season, there have been plenty of questions about why Matt Mervis hasn’t returned to the big leagues, and it turns out there is a very specific reason.
