Minor League Discussion & Boxes 8-6-13

[CubsWin]

i'll go ahead and mention that jokisch has a no-hitter in the 6th inning so that he can allow a hit.

Almost. First pitch in the 9th. Line drive to third, leaping catch by Villanueva. Second batter, second pitch. Liner up the middle, diving catch by Baez. Waiting on the third batter. 8 2/3 now...

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Using the ol' MLE calculator, Baez's AA line after that ninth-inning K:

 

229/277/485 for a .762 OPS.

[gscool89]

No-hitter!

[CubsWin]

Easy grounder to Villanueva. He did it. A full 9 inning no-hitter for Jokisch.

[rawaction]

And Jokisch throws the no-hitter! 2nd of the season for the Cubs organization,

[CubsWin]

I want to see highlights of both the Villanueva leap and the Baez dive. They sounded incredible.

My friend was at the Tenn. game. Was sending me texts throughout. Ill try to copy and paste the important texts from my iphone.

Sitting 1st row bhind 3rd.Baez just smackd a dbl on 1st pitch. Dude is fast

 

Just stole 3rd easily. got up & laughed

 

Baez 3-3 on 3 pitches. #machine

 

Best playr I have seen this year. no doubt

 

P is pretty good. Jokish

 

I saw 92 on the radar here. gd curve it looks like..alot of strikes

 

Baez has good range defensively. He will be all-star

 

jokish batting in 8th will go out for last inning. NO HITTER!

 

Nice play by 3B to save the no-no! 2 more

 

Baez diving catch!!! Was screaming "LETS GO JOKER" to jokish. lol

 

NO HITTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Javy's grit is raising his teammates' level of play via leadership osmosis.

Javy IS that guy. The one we're going to love and the one everyone else hates, but wishes like hell he was on their team.

I saw the little hitch at the top where the bat pointed back toward the pitcher and thought "too loopy"...and then there was a blur where I assume the bat was supposed to be and the ball was in left field.

Yep, and if he does become big time, I'm going to just enjoy how much Cardinals fans will piss and moan about him being too cocky and not playing the game the right way.

Javy is going to make Puig look like Jeter from a class standpoint. I'm anticipating his first walkoff homer against the Cards, where he calls his shot, flips his bat to their dugout, grabs his crotch the entire walk around the bases backwards, followed by a the Randy Moss crapping on home plate, with whoever's on deck handing him toilet paper to wipe with.

[Quakers]

I see that Brockmeier was played for Iowa today.

[Guest]

also, Kris Bryant is coming with him. Perchance Jorge Soler, too.

And it will be glorious!

baez diving catch preserves no hitter

[Guest]

remember when we were kind of surprised at the baez promotion to tennessee and were just hoping he could hold his own and not look too overmatched?

Also, I think you guys are kind of overstating on Javy's potential douchiness.
