Daytona all stars: OF John Andreoli, SS Javier Baez, LHP Frank Del Valle, 1B Dustin Geiger & OF Jorge Soler.

[ctcf]

I still think Negrin could be a decent BP guy. Is this just a spot start or something?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Have there been any reports on Blackburn's velo this spring?

[BeerHere]

I'm going to the Cougars game tonight and will provide my very amateur scouting review of the players that I see.

 

(assuming the game gets in - it is raining at the moment)

Daytona Cubs @daytonacubs

All four Cubs position players are in the starting lineup for tonight's ASG! twitpic.com/cxdsdr

[Named After Maddux]

The first for Maples was every bit as rough as the box score will read. Labored through his 2/3 of an inning. 4R. And leaves with bases loaded. Walks, HBP. Not hit hard, but control is an issue (as advertised). Contreras had a lazer to 2nd to nab a runner though.

[TruffleShuffle]

soler was subbed out of the game to start the 2nd inning without having a plate appearance - wtf?

[Cubswin11]

Maples 2nd really bad start in a row now, no?

[Named After Maddux]

Maples 2nd really bad start in a row now, no?

 

Oh yes. Unfortunately it really was. 4 walks and a HBP. No real hard hits, but was 89-92 during the inning. There was an error that should have helped him out, but it was already a rough inning.

 

On a lighter note, Almora laced a ball up the middle.

[TruffleShuffle]

baez has 2 doubles in 2 at bats in the fsl all star game.

woot

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Hey look, Almora's 2-2. :-"

[Guest]

Any word on how Baez did in the home run derby?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

@BenBadler 1m

 

Big fan. One of the best hitters in the minors RT @Skin_Graph Have you heard any reports on Albert Almora? nearing 100 PA and hitting .430.

I'm imagining a CF Jeter.

[Guest]

Javier Baez was robbed of a HR by the umps:

 

@JordiScrubbings: @jjcoop36 score should be 8-2 if not for a hideously blown home run non call

 

@JordiScrubbings: @jjcoop36 javier baez hit ball off the foul pole made completely different noise than ball off wall. Ump said still in play. Horrible call.

[Warpticon]

Alcantara goes 2-4 with a pair of doubles and his 17th steal in 19 attempts. Now at .290/.369/.479 on the year.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Any further news on this? I hope there wasn't an injury.

[Little Slide Rooter]

@MindofStan: .@KatieKatCubs Jorge Soler didn't seem to be hurt cuz he was talking calmly with Javier Baez after being removed.

 

Found this with some Twitter digging. Seems odd that he wouldn't get at least an AB.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Blackburn 1 H, 0 BB, 7 K through 4.

[Guest]

Blackburn with 7 Ks through 4 scoreless.

[Guest]

Blackburn 1 H, 0 BB, 7 K through 4.

 

Wonder if he has gained any velocity or this is purely awesome movement/control against lower level hitters.

[rawaction]

Any word on how Baez did in the home run derby?

 

Lost in a 3-person final. Not sure how many he hit. Geiger hit 4 HRs in the 1st round, but did not make the final. So, Baez hit more than 4 I presume. Guy that won hit 13 in the final.
