[CubsWin]

Adbert Alzolay with his 2nd strong start in a row.

 

12 IP, 9 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 12 K. Let's hope he's corrected something like Justin Steele seems to have. They both might wind up relievers, but adding those two to the list of viable pitching prospects would be nice.

Wilson is 2-2, with a 2B and a HR.

[CubsWin]

DJ Wilson is at it again. So far tonight 2-for-2 with a double and a HR and 3 RBI. In his last 42 ABs, he's hit .500, raising his average 100 points to .255.

 

Through his 1st 27 games, he's was hitting .155 with 3 doubles, 1 triple, 1 HR, 12.3% BB, 24.8% K in 121 PAs.

 

In his last 12 games (including tonight's unfinished one), he's .500 with 4 doubles and 2HRs in 48 PAs. In that span he's dropped his K% to 20.1%.

 

This could just be a hot streak, but, damn! We'll see how he finishes the season...
