Cubs play a night game tonight. It will be on Marquee.
-
In yesterday's game, Lance Brozdowski mentioned that the gap between AAA and MLB is widening and large in pitching. Guys aren't staying down for extended periods when they have the goods. It stands to reason if that is true, there is little to be gained by keeping a hitter there either who has mastered AAA. That's not to say PCA or any of the other "kids" have mastered AAA. But the process has changed a lot in the last few years.
-
Not today unless you are at the game.
-
They had a "Cubs" offseason. Value and flexibility are Jed's calling cards. He knows where his limits are and works within them.
-
it was a fine post. The other one will be infamous. You don't want that.
-
Nick Jackson was a can’t miss prospect. He missed.
-
Bote with another HR. He's haveing a good spring.
-
Alcantara crushed a ball to dead CF. Nice HR>
-
Ok, I'm looking forward to getting the cuts and getting ready for the season.
-
Maybe I’m being too optimistic (something I’m not known for), but I think we may be in opposite situation now. They have so many good prospects at almost every position. The depth is amazing. For example, the last time I saw Pablo Aliendo in person last April he looked like a skinny teenager. This spring he looks like he put 20 pounds of muscle on and looks like a legitimate big league catcher. He did a great job behind the plate yesterday stealing some strikes. im so impressed with their development team.
-
Aliendo is a breakout candidate. He’s put on a lot of muscle on him since I saw him at last April in Montgomery. He use to be a beanpole.
-
Wesneski with another rough outing but the Dodgers have a video game team. They might win 120 games this year.
-
Overall good outing for Imanaga.
-
Bad decision by Nico. Costs a run but th ball was blasted. Imanaga is going to have to keep the HRs in check.
-
Mervis with a 415 foot shot to dead center off a lefty. Me like.
-
Good first inning for imanaga
-
Caissie is nothing like Colvin.
-
I’m not saying the Bears should draft him, but I think Bo Nix is going to be the steal of this year’s draft. He’s the son of coach, is really smart, and is gym rat. He’s a little old but he’s got a strong arm, quick release, and good sense of what he wants to do at LOS.
-
He's got a quick bat.
-
Kopech all kinds of wild to start the bottom of the first.
-
and then he said take him off the draft board.
-
Pete is just such a fun player to watch it's natural to want to see him in Chicago, but he still has a lot to work on to be the player everyone expects/wants him to be. Given his verve for the game and work ethic, I expect it's going to happen. He's going to be dynamic and lot of fun for a long time to come. If you have MLB.tv you can watch him in Iowa every game.
-
The thing with Madrigal is that if he's getting regular playing time, at some point he's going on the IL for an extended time. I don't think the Cubs can pencil him in for the majority of 3B. Morel needs to make the routine plays, that's it. If he can't do that, he can't play the position. Yesterday's non-error/error was a higher-end play, but a play a ML 3rd baseman is going to make 9 times out 10.
-
Arizona Phil reported it and it was repeated by Brett at BN.
-
Yes, I have impulsivity issues and had overconfidence in my own ability on the course. I'd go to the range and nail a bucket of balls. Then I'd get on the course and hit a bad tee shot and try to make up for it by hitting an impossible 2nd shot and chase that with a bad third shot. Get to the green and three put for a pissed-off 8. Then the next hole nail a drive and be putting for a birdie.
