[Brock Beauchamp]

Late game thread today, I was busy doing things that included not thinking about baseball for 30 minutes in a row. But hey, Cabrera is on the mound tonight!

Man it would be awesome if Pete found his power again. Over the last 2 weeks his OBP is 390. His approach is improving. He just needs to start barreling balls again.

Yeah he's had some good ABs lately for sure, a great sign.   I'm sure the power will come.

Cowles is both loved and hated by this FO. They brought him back but never want to give him a shot.

Nikhazy was an interesting lefty in Cleveland's organization pretty recently. Another depth arm with all the injuries we've had.

[Jason Ross]

Justin Steele had "a setback" per Jesse Rogers. He is currently "shut down" and "Memorial Day return" is "in jeopardy"

[Old Style]

Good thing this is the first injury to the pitching staff this season.

Of course he did.

I wonder if we will get any more details.

Justin Steele and Cade Horton should be considered fun bonuses if they contribute any substantial value to the Cubs at any point in the future. It sucks, but that has to be the mindset/approach by the front office.

Yeah TJ#1 is more or less routine but TJ#2 is still assume the worst until the guy has re-proven himself.
