CJ is playing catch, Cubs targeting near ASB return. Wittenmyer just mentioned to me.

 

@CSNMooney: Cubs farm director Jaron Madison said C.J. Edwards is on a throwing program in AZ. Hope is he'll be back at Double-A around All-Star break.

Blackburn is up to seven innings with six k's and no walks.

Andrew Cockrum ‏@Andrew_PCL 18m

 

.@IowaCubs Javier Baez just hit the longest HR I've ever seen, completely out of Dell Diamond over the 2nd deck for his 6th HR of the year.

 

 

great outing for blackburn - 7 ip, 4 h, 0 r, 0 bb, 6 k, 1 hbp. would guess he's probably done, since pitchers at that level rarely go longer than 7 innings.

[Guest]

Baez up second this inning for anyone wanting to tune in.

[Guest]

up third. sorry

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The intensity of the Baez hot streak is proportional to the length and depth of the preceding slump.

Daytona lost on a two out pop up on the infield that dropped, allowing the tying and winning runs to score lol.

Holy [expletive], this is great.

[Guest]

would be interesting to see what pitch types he's getting all these XBH on

[davell]

Balaguert HR. As Carl Spackler says "He got all of that one" while rounding the bases. Awesome.
