@andruwgreen: Fastball was 91-93 mph in the 2nd inning, breaking ball at 79-80. Steady diet of both tonight

 

@andruwgreen: 53 pitches/33 strikes for CJ Edwards through 3 innings. Fastball was b/w 90-93 in the 3rd inning

 

@MDGonzales: Fujikawa scheduled to pitch again Monday for Iowa. Velo 87-89. Cubs want to him to pitch on consecutive days, then decide on next step.

 

@bigjohnsonblog: Low 90s with the fastball for Martinez in the first.

Those PA against younger pitchers numbers remind me of all the guys Bryce Harper is younger than when he is on rehab every other month. It's going to be really crazy when Julio Urias is rehabbing from Tommy John surgery in 2017.
