2022 AFL

[Tryptamine]

At the bottom of the letters too. Clearly no bat speed.

[Gilby]

Mervis continuing his trend of not striking out while still doing damage, has just 3 K's in his first 36 AFL plate appearances. Compared to 4 dongs

10/20:

 

RF O. Caissie 1/4, R, 2 RBI, K

1B M. Mervis 2/4, RBI

 

No Cubs got into today’s game.

I can't tell if it's on the inner third, but it's definitely off a lefty

[We Got The Whole 9]

My expectations are so out of whack... Or are they?

[CubinNY]

Rizzo age 25 stats

SO AVE. OBP SLG OPS

105 .278 .387 .512 .899

 

I think that is a realistic line for Mervis next year.

Caissie, Mervis, and Murray all in the lineup. Caissie with a K in the 1st inning. Mervis up second in the second.

Continuing the rough prospect news for the Cubs, sources said Brennen Davis isn’t expected to play in the remainder of the Arizona Fall League due to back tightness.

 

…

 

Davis started his AFL season with a bang, hitting two home runs and posting a 1.048 OPS, but he lasted just five games and was removed mid-game on Oct. 10 and hasn’t played since. The Cubs don’t believe this issue is the same as what occurred in the summer, but they’re still working to understand exactly what the problem is. Davis is expected to be added to the 40-man roster this winter and after the surgery delayed his big-league debut this past summer, the hope is he’ll be ready to impact the major-league team at some point in 2023.

AFL ends next week if you’re looking for optimism.

So...6 hr and only 5 k.

 

Sold.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

This is becoming a broken record, but again off a lefty.
