  1. Baker wasn't terrible, statistically speaking. 3.2 IP, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 2 K Pierce piggy backed and was ok. Struck out a ton but got knocked around a bit. 4 IP, 6 H, 3 ER, 2 BB, 7K
  2. Maple with another great outing so far. 4 IP, 2 H, 0 BB, 5 K
  3. ANOTHER fun fact: With 27 HRs, Javy already has more this year than Anthony Rizzo ever hit in any one season in the minors. He has one less than Mike Olt's personal best of 28.
  4. So I just did a quick run through of all the minor leagues. With the caveat that I didn't check for players who may have moved up a league and added to their total like Javy has, his 27 HRs puts him at second overall in the minors. 1st is Ryan Rua of the Rangers with 28. I would note that he is 23 and in A-Ball (Sally League) 2nd is Javy with his combined 27. 3rd is Josh Fields at 26. He is a 27 year old in AA in the Texas league. While the K rate is currently horrifying, holy [expletive] [expletive].
  5. 27 HR total on the year. Jeez.
  6. Man, JCP has been Concepcion-esque since getting to KC.
  7. Gah another 2 Ks for Baez, though. Seems like a daily occurrence at this point.
  8. Jonathan Mayo's updated Cubs Top 20 at MLB.com is comically bad:
  9. Also really not worried about Shark getting traded, but if the DiamondBacks were stupid enough to offer Bradley and Skaggs, I'd take it.
  10. I guess I'll leave this here. Maybe one of my favorite Deadspin comments ever (not a high bar) from a video today of some 6 year old hitting HRs in six straight ABs:
  11. I really think you're pulling that assumption out of thin air. Just because the big rumor guys needed something to throw at a wall and heard Towers called the Cubs again about Shark doesn't mean there's any doubts or concern about Shark.
  12. Seriously though, who did Hendricks piss off?
  13. Javy BB, but also another 2 Ks...
  14. Vogelbomb #15 and Almora BB
  15. Almost-Cub Randall Delgado almost Maddux'd the Padres today. Missed by one pitch. (CG Shutout under 100 pitches) He has a 2.83 ERA If only Dempster had been as professional about [expletive] as Soriano was.
  16. Looks like Tseng is officially a Cub at 1.6 mil
  17. Go home, Javy. You're drunk.
  18. Wait... There's actually a player named "Duane Below" This is fantastic.
  19. That dude has been the ultimate good game/bad game kinda guy so far in Iowa.
  20. Or Sweeney. Or they plan on getting Ellsbury and moving DeJesus to LF. Any number of things really. This does make it easy to give Lake an extended run though. Yeah, I sincerely doubt this was at all prompted by Junior.
  21. Weird, he was the last Cub left I've seen play at Wrigley.
  22. Yeah, what the hell? Not a single snide remark? No prospect bashing? Positive responses? The guy is out of control.
