You dont understand the difference between AAA and MLB pitching?

I don't think you understand what you're saying.  One guy has wrecked AAA pitching (and put up a league average line in 20 MLB games) and the message is apparently 'he's a journeyman on a hot streak, it's not gonna continue' (that's fine, not trying to say Young is a guy).  Two other guys hit significantly worse at AAA both in terms of output and peripherals and the message is apparently 'they're really talented, give em a shot in MLB and see if they get hot'.  There's no way to circle that square consistently.

Yeah, MLB pitching is tougher. Results should go down from AAA to MLB. I'd rather the starting point be a .430 wOBA than a .365 one when I'm downgrading, but that's just me.

He's probably gonna get a hit here because baseball is cruel, but with Young coming up that send makes a lot of sense. 

No it didn’t .

Happ wasn’t even at 3B when the LF got the ball . IDC who is next . If they don’t have faith in Young getting a hit , then dont play him

Exactly,  he had a .001 chance of being safe and that was if Jones threw the ball to a spot the catcher couldn't catch it

Good call, though it feels like easy mode making that prediction with Seiya batting.

Man he's sizzling.

multi-inning outing from stroman today?

If the score is close he will pitch . Cubs high leverage group is Merryweather / Stroman / Smyly .

When things are going the way they have been for the Cubs (pending today), things like an errant pickoff throw somehow banging off an ump and back into play happen
