Salad with another single. BA up to .370

I just got that. Nice.

I know it's spring and his patience could still use some work, but if lowering his hands is helping him get the bat to the ball and make hard contact more consistently, he may actually prove to be quite useful.

stance & swing looks a lot like JJ Hardy now (which isn't to say i expect that level of power)

I'm just hoping he's able to play before it gets warm.

See you next year Sloan Park

[Brian]

not that it matters but getting to .500 after the start they had is nice.

Was actually pretty impressed by this total:

 

Jesse Rogers @ESPNChiCubs

222,415 attendance for the spring season for Cubs. Team says All-time spring record

Just seeing the HR from yesterday, Arizona or not I didn't realize La Stella had that type of pop. He went out to LCF fairly easily and it didn't really look like he got all of it off the bat too.

Russell, Schwarber, Baez, Almora all in lineup today vs. Ari. @Cubs baseball at 3 CT on @WGNTV. Final exhibition game.

[ctcf]

Nice double by Russell

[sneakypower]

love Addi

 

Baez ripped a lineout to LF

[George Hayduke]

Schwarber looks pretty good back there so far. Seems very quiet with the glove while receiving.

[sneakypower]

nice recovery by Russell on that scorcher

 

Tomas looked to have made a lucky snag to prevent an Almora 2B

I can hear the wrigley PA outside my apartment

[Guest]

Javy works a full count and then singles to left

They're watching the game lol

[Derwood]

Good lord that thing is huge

[Guest]

Almora is good at hitting baseballs

 

I think he's going to bounce back this year...not that he'll necessarily start walking or something but that he'll at least hit like he did before last year.

kyle schwarber is a mother [expletive] catcher

 

we are going to be the 27 yankees
