Peoria won 1-0 thanks to a timely passed ball. Dolis pitched six scoreless with 4 hits, 2 BBs, and 2 Ks.

A:

 

J.J. Cooper: The Cubs explained Pawelek's demotion as they wanted him to get regular work in the warmth of Arizona instead of cold weather in Peoria, but he was having mechanical problems before the move. The fact that the Cubs had moved him into the bullpen when he was sent to Peoria is a bad sign as well. He did show up in better shape this year than last, when he was kept out of full season ball because he showed up out of shape. It's too early to give up on him, but if you're looking for a front-runner in the category of 2005 first-round draft busts, Pawelek is the leader as they head to the first turn.

Your's truly asked that one. :D

Q: Patrick from Chicago, IL asks:

What's been going on with Mark Pawelek? He was so highly-rated coming out of high school two years ago, and yet he barely even pitched four innings in Low A before being shipped back to extended spring training. Is he having mechanical trouble or is it something else?

Holliman's scoreless streak is no more as he gave up a run in the top of the first inning...but it was unearned, so he still is sporting a 0.00 ERA.

 

A day after taking on Ricky Nolasco and Sergio Mitre, the D-Cubs are now facing Chris Volstad.

Finals are in...

 

Daytona won 4-3

Tennessee won 4-2

Iowa lost 6-5

[Outshined_One]

Harvey and Colvin with unintentional walks. :D

[TruffleShuffle]

Eric Patterson hit an intentional home run!

[CubinNY]

Eric Patterson hit an intentional home run!

It was a rocket.

 

the I-Cubs were a lot more patient against a left handed starter. Fontenot is NOT a ss. In addition to his error there were at least 2 other balls he should have got to but didn't. Micah Houfpaur was in LF. He made a great throw to gun a guy out at home but Soto dropped it.

 

JR Mathis looked fine until the 4th. He got two quick outs and then after a couple of hits and a walk had the bases loaded, and boom goes the dinomite! A grand slam.

 

Not much else to report.
