Word is that today may be Anthony Rizzo's last game for the Iowa Cubs. There are rumors everywhere that he will come to Chicago tomorrow and be called up to play on Tuesday, because they don't want him to debut vs. a LHP, Santana tomorrow.

 

Edit: guess it is mentioned in the Cubs Discussion thread.

[Guest]

LHP Matt Spencer promoted from Boise to Peoria.

[Guest]

hate hate hate hate the FSL

[toonsterwu]

LHP Matt Spencer promoted from Boise to Peoria.

 

Nice ... wouldn't mind seeing him fast-tracked a bit more this year if he shows well in limited outings in Peoria.

[Guest]

Greg Reynolds doesn't like our prospects. He's hit both Jackson & Vitters today.

[rawaction]

Baez, moved up to 5th in the lineup today, struck out with 2 men on in the 1st. His 5th K in his last 3 games.

[Guest]

Brett with another HR today.

[El Duderino]

Brett Jackson HR.

 

ninja'd

[rawaction]

Brett with another HR today.

 

All 3 true outcomes today, with a HBP throw in there

[Guest]

sucks that i can't enjoy anything good brett jackson does because he is striking out in the rest of his PAs.

[Magnetic Curses]

[Guest]

Tennessee suspended in the 3rd. Weather really getting the better of the Cubs farm system today.

[Quakers]

LHP Matt Spencer promoted from Boise to Peoria.

I wasn't too impressed with what I saw of Matt while he was with Boise.

Not good velocity? Control? Mound presence?

[iowahawkeyes89]

Javier Baez saw one pitch in 4 of his 5 AB's today...not good [-X

[Ryno12]

Marco Hernandez and Jeimer Candelario with back-to-back jacks in the first!!

[davell]

[expletive] Yeah

[Ryno12]

Dunston with a solo shot in 2nd.

[davell]

Awesome. Kind of a lackadaisical day in the minors for us(other than Brett being solid) just picked up bigtime.

[Guest]

Candelario since Wednesday: 9/16, 4 HR, 3/2 K/BB for a modest 1.923 OPS.

[17 Seconds]

what would candelario have to do in boise to crack the top 100?

[davell]

what would candelario have to do in boise to crack the top 100?

Raisin mentioned a .900 OPS. Makes sense to me. Badler loves him and said it's quite possible he could make it, by the way.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

what would candelario have to do in boise to crack the top 100?

 

I think at this level, the scouting reports are going to matter a lot more than his results.

 

So I guess the answer would be "Look like a top-100 prospect"?
