For the time being, his name is the least sexy thing about him.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Fun with SSS: Ronald Torreyes has a 17% walk rate and a 0% K rate.

[ctcf]

Javier Baez appears to have the day off. Soler is 1-1 so far and batting .412

[Little Slide Rooter]

If Soler keeps it up, any chance he hits Tenesse by June?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

If he keeps playing well, they'll definitely promote him before the shitstorms hit the FSL.

[ctcf]

And Rock singles in his first AB. That's a hit in 14 of the first 15 games.

Vogelbach with an athletic play at 1B. Big man, but he's quick. Good lateral movement.

 

Something you don't see everyday.

I'd imagine by the FSL all-star game in mid-June.

Szczur got an infield single to the shortstop that scored two runs without an error.

 

Don't see that everyday.

Was Jean Segura somehow the SS?

[ctcf]

Aaaaaaaand Shoulders with a double. Sounds like the wind and minor league defense helped him out, though. 2-2 today.

Stolen base by... Dan Vogelbach

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

@TonyAndracki23 5s

 

Vogelbach just stole second. Not even a throw. Where are those people with doubts on his "big body" now?

Must have been on a 10 MPH curveball.

Must have been on a 10 MPH curveball.

 

From what I gleaned from the radio, it was kinda even funnier than that. Sounded like the pitcher really didn't even bother to keep him in check at first and Voges got annoyed and decided to just go for it.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Remember David Cales? I didn't until today.

[Guest]

Looks like Bruno hurt his hand when he was HBP today.

 

2B Stephen Bruno started for the Cubs, but left the game after six innings. Bruno was hit by a pitch in his left hand during an at-bat in the 4th inning. While Bruno stayed in the game and advanced to second on the wild pitch that scored the Cubs' only run, he exited before his next plate appearance.

Rock Shoulders just chewing up and spitting out Low A. Is Daytona far bahind?

[jersey cubs fan]

Is Brett Jackson hurt or on double secret probation? 2 days in a row of PH duty?

I think a sore/jammed toe is the culprit there.

John Arguello tweeted yesterday that Peña was working at 91. I heard he was 87-90 last year in Boise.
