i wonder if it's about time to move up Jose Arias

 

14-1/3 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 4 BB, 21 K (0 HR) for the past month, but he's still sitting in A ball as a 23yo

With the injuries, I wish he'd get stretched out instead of Amlung.

Amlung dominated tonight. In his 7 innings he walked nobody, threw 51 strikes in 71 pitches, K'd 5, had a 8-4 GF/AO, and allowed only three singles. One bunt single, one infield single, and a line drive to center.

 

Anyone know what he's been working with?

Puff piece on Will Remillard which explains one reason why he fell in the draft: http://beaconnews.suntimes.com/sports/27565558-419/cougars-insider-kane-county-pitchers-finding-the-way-with-will-remillard.html#.U3wkbDd5mc0

 

After suffering a back injury late in his junior season at Coastal Carolina, Remillard was passed over repeatedly before the Cubs struck. Scouted by former big leaguer Keith Lockhart, the father of Remillard’s Cougars teammate Danny Lockhart, the Cubs took Remillard in the 19th round of last year’s draft.

 

He was unable to suit up for the Cubs organization until this spring as he rehabbed the back injury.

Today in extended spring training: http://www.thecubreporter.com/05202014/ubiera-torres-tag-team-torments-papago-park

 

Gleyber Torres went 4/4 with a double, 3 singles and a BB.

 

In 23 Cactus League EXST games (91 PA), the 17-year old Torres is now hitting 291/378/392, with four doubles and two triples, 8 RBI, 8 runs scored, 9/17 BB/K, two HBP (and he tried to charge the mound on one of them), 2 SB (2 CS) and one PO, and ten errors (seven fielding and three throwing).

 

RHRP Kyuji Fujikawa (on the Cubs 60-day DL - 2013 TJS) saw his first Cactus League EXST game action since April 14th (when he walked off the mound at Riverview Park in the middle of an AB after thowing 17 pitches), retiring all three batters he faced (4-3, F-9, P-3) on just 12 pitches. Fujikawa is eligible to be reinstated from the 60-day DL today, but he will require additional rehab work before he is ready to rejoin the Cubs (and that's presuming there are no further setbacks along the way).

 

Cubs 2013 5th round draft pick RHP Trey Masek (on Kane County 7-day DL) saw his first Cactus League EXST game action of 2014, but he was not as sharp as Fujikawa, surrendering a solo HR to the first batter he faced before walking two of the next three hitters. Masek was unable to complete his inning (21 pitches - only 9 strikes), and was relieved with two outs and a runner on 1st (the other baserunner had already been erased on a CS).

Interesting.

 

I don't doubt the essence of the piece, but he did play in the Cape last summer. So while the Cubs may not have played him after he signed at the deadline, it's not like the injury was so extreme that he couldn't play baseball at all.
