McGehee Hurt: The Cubs scratched third baseman Casey McGehee from the starting lineup after he got hit in the face with a batted ball during batting practice.

 

He suffered a mild concussion, had six stitches and will miss two games.

 

First Roster Move: The Cubs sent reliever Jon Mueller from Tennessee to Daytona in the Class A Florida State League on Sunday. The Smokies received pitcher Geoffrey Jones from extended spring training.

 

Mueller made three appearances for the Smokies and pitched 31/3 scoreless innings.

 

Jones should be familiar to Smokies' fans. He spent eight years in San Diego's farm system, including the past three with the Mobile BayBears.

 

The 27-year-old left-hander from Dolores, Colo., was 1-1 with a 4.26 ERA for the BayBears in 53 appearances last season and averaged nearly a strikeout per inning.

Get on track Donnie!

 

Bounce back after terrible start Dolis!

[RyCubsFan]

Hope to see Marmol continue to tear up the PCL tonight. What I like most about his year so far: only 2 walks. He was tough to hit last year in the bigs, it was the walks that hurt him.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Iowa up 4-1 after 2...only Machado, Moore and Marmol don't have hits for Iowa already.

 

Marmol: 2 IP, 1 ER, 1 H, 1 K/0 BB, 1 HBP.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Iowa now up 5-1 in the middle of the 5th. Carlos Marmol: 5 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 6 K/0 BB, 2 HBP, 67 pitches (45 strikes).

So who gets first dibs on the #5 starter spot if we decide to scrap Miller; Marmol or Guzman?

I'd probably say Guzman just because he's had success with the big league team to this point.

 

But if Marmol continues to pitch the way he does, he'll make it interesting.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

5-1 in the bottom of the 6th.

 

6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 7 K/1 BB, 3 HBP, 78 pitches (50 strikes)

[Vinestal]

He's hit 3 batters? dang! Wonder what the deal is with that. Well at least he only has 1 walk. What pitches does Marmol throw? I cant remember

4 seam fastball around 92-97

good curve & slider

good changeup

[Flames24Rulz]

Iowa ended up winning 7-2. Marmol's line: 7 innings, 3 hits, 1 run, 8 Ks/2 BBs, 3 HBPs on 94 pitches. Baez gave up a run in 1/3 of an inning. Cherry got the save working an inning and a third and striking out two of the four batters he faced.

 

Every Iowa position player reached base except Machado, who had a sac fly. Buck Coats was 3/4 and Rojas and Hill were each 2/4.

[ChiefsVoice]

Let's get a couple of quality starts from Pina and Dolis today.

[Flames24Rulz]

Pina's allowed 4 hits and 1 walk in the first two innings, but no runs. No score in the 3rd.

[Flames24Rulz]

And the Chiefs draw first blood with a 2-out RBI single from Matt Camp :)

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Tennessee scoreless after 1...The Don had a 1-2-3 first inning, his ERA is finally below 9!

 

Daytona scoreless in the third inning.

 

Peoria now up 2-1 in the 7th inning.

[Flames24Rulz]

Peoria wins the first game, 2-1 :)

[Flames24Rulz]

Veal was cruising along for the first three innings. The fourth inning was a disaster though. 4 IP, 5 hits, 3 runs, 3 Ks/1 BB. Ugh. 3-0 Chattanooga after 4.

 

Daytona is tied at 1 in the bottom of the 6th. Matulia had an RBI single to tie it in the top of the 6th. Blackford finished with 4 and 2/3s, 3 hits, 1 run, 3 Ks/1 BB.

Ugh, second time this season he's had major issues with the fourth inning after getting by the first three with limited damage.
