[CaliforniaRaisin]

Ed Howard is still on the MB roster, not on their IL and 3/4 today.

[Bertz]

Howard is NOT on the IL, is 3/4 with a double, and has finally hit the Mendoza Line batting .200 exactly

 

Edit: Scooped by Raisin

[Hrubes20]

Joel Machado with a 4 inning debut, gave up on a run on 29 pitches and picked up 4 Ks

 

I think the pitch counts are pretty sketchy down there still.

[CubsWin]

Best day of the year on the farm by far.

Morel 3 home run montage:

 

[Bertz]

Morel since his ROUGH first two weeks of the season:

 

145 PAs, .248/.366/.529, 15.2 BB%, 22.1 K%, 8 dongs, 6 steals, 0 CS

 

That's still not that many PA's, so give him another month-ish, but the man might be ready for Iowa.

Oh and he's been playing 5 defensive positions to boot
