Corey Black walks 2 in a 24 pitch 1st inning. Only the 10 strikes.

[davell]

Javy only one of big 3 playing in second game.

[Brian]

they were probably going to sit Javy, but he probably just laughed and wrote his name in.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Javy only one of big 3 playing in second game.

Gotta get him as many reps at 2nd as possible before he's called up in a couple days.

Almora 1 for 16, 6 Ks. So much for being able to handle that promotion.

[muntjack]

Almora now 1/16 with 6K at Tennessee.

 

 

edit: really?

6 of them unsuccessful, the other 10 requiring more information for degree of success to be determined.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Turn on the Sharma-Signal.

[EhDubya]

Didnt Russell start out something like 4 hits in his first 30 ABs with us?

Nobody's ever recovered from a slump like that. I checked. Time to cut him.

[Guest]

Concepcion promoted to Daytona.

Geez. I was just messing around.

[Clem Fandango]

I think he was, too

[Rob]

Concepcion promoted to Daytona.

 

Any reports on his stuff this year? Didn't a lot of his problems come from a bad case of mono or something?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

I think he was, too

He was trying to channel Kyle into getting Almora to go 4/4 with a 2B and a HR.

@TommyBirch: Pevey on Soler: "Most young players have a tendency to chase-he doesn't. Maybe that's why he got what he got." #Cubs #PCL #MiLB

So was I. Apparently neither of us were very successful.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Tyler Skulina probably had his best pro start today: 7 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 7/1 K/BB

 

Pretty good for guy with knee problems.

[J.R.]

Vogelbomb.

[TruffleShuffle]

gleyber torres has 2 doubles in 2 at bats. looks like maybe he is coming out of his slump. 14bb against 22k in 22 games is fine for a 17 year old in the AZL, though.

[Guest]

Burks had 3 more hits today in the leadoff spot. Zagunis with 2 hits and a walk himself.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Man, if Zagunis is good behind the plate we might have something here.

[TruffleShuffle]

torres 3-3 with a single, 2 doubles and a walk (plus a stolen base). eloy jimenez is 2-4 with a single and double. justin steele allowed 2 hits, a run and a walk in 2 innings, but also had 4 strikeouts.
