[Guest]

Lillibridge gets the start at 3B over both Vitters and Stewart.

[Guest]

Javy is 1-3 with a walk.

 

Soler is 0-3 and done for the day as he got pulled for some reason.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Javy is 1-3 with a walk.

 

Yesssss.

 

Stewart is a poopyhead and Vitters has a quad strain.

[Guest]

Geiger is still trying to make us love him. 1-3 with HR and walk.

[Guest]

Tenn postponed due to rain.

Yesterday at Fitch: http://www.thecubreporter.com/05182013/brewers-leave-cubs-offense-stupor-fitch-park

 

Almora looked good, Clevenger is starting rehab.

[Guest]

Almora makes Baez look downright patient at the plate.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Almora makes Baez look downright patient at the plate.

 

I find that to be very perplexing. I hope it's just that he's not being challenged and putting a lot of balls in play.

I'm not too concerned about ExST but he didn't display much patience in Boise last year (and by much, I mean he had a 0% BB% in 65 PA).

counting ExST, that's 87 straight PA without a walk.

[Guest]

he hasn't done anything today, but we're really not showing enough love to Contreras. Looking at the stats coming into today for the minor league hitters, Contreras and Soler have had the best combination of impressive and sustainable starts to their seasons.

 

Assuming he continues, he will probably make the biggest jump on my mid-season prospect list.

[Guest]

Javy with two more errors today, btw.

His improvements in patience and power have been incredible.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Javy is 1-3 with a walk.

 

Yesssss.

 

Stewart is a poopyhead and Vitters has a quad strain.

 

And Brent Lillibridge is Brent Lillibridge, still making him the least desireable option.

[Guest]

Javy is 1-3 with a walk.

 

Soler is 0-3 and done for the day as he got pulled for some reason.

 

please don't be some stupid not running hard thing again.

 

well, if it's that, please don't let the manager be an [expletive] and talk to the local papers and chicago radio about it.

He was pulled defensively to start the bottom of the 6th after popping out in the top of the 6th.

So...He likely either hurt himself on that swing or didn't run it out after he popped it up.

 

My money is on the latter.

[Guest]

Rock Shoulders HR.

 

It's his 10th of the season.

I don't suppose it was because he's spearheading a package for Giancarlo Stanton?

Yoanir Negrin pitched 4 innings of relief with 0/4 BB/K. Between him, Mosocoro, and Yeiper Castillo, we've got an intriguing batch of minor league free agent pitchers. I'd be interested in seeing any of them in the big league pen.

Maybe Castillo should get to AA first.

Clearly, I cursed his performance today.
