  1. Did anyone with subscription read the BA piece on Russell today? Highlights?
  2. Edwards final line 3 ip 1 h 1 BB 3 K
  3. Looks like an interesting player... Meh kind old though
  4. Apparently he made a couple of amazing plays at 2nd (not that that should suprise anyone) @Cu_As was tweeting from the game, and had some pictures. He went 1/3 with a walk.
  5. Some video of Edwards vs Rusney Castillo http://www.tout.com/m/ejj6hk?ref=twom8f5b Kinda anti-climatic since he grounds to 2nd on the first pitch.
  6. Hanneman was 1/3 with a double, Russell 0/4 and HBP, Vogelbach 0/2 with the 3 walks.
  7. Nice article on Mallee's work with Altuve http://m.astros.mlb.com/news/article/96369240/jose-altuves-outstanding-season-a-product-of-yearlong-adjustments
  8. I was at this game and hung around to watch Dascenzo throw the 9th for the Cubs. http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN199107020.shtml He actually pitched a couple of times and the season after this he showed up to pitchers meetings at spring training.
  9. unless they don't. Lol was going to say that
  10. Makes sense thanks for the explanation.
  11. http://www.tout.com/m/bqs5rf?ref=twahgypu This is mostly A's footage but there are a couple videos of Russell, one of his 2 RBI single and some of Voglebach's swings at the hitting challenge.
  12. Lol well, looks like 2 green poles kinda flimsy
  13. ?? I think he's talking about the renderings of the outfield party deck thing ( or whatever it's called) looks like a lot of weight for those 2 post to hold up, I'm sure there's more to it than what it shows.
  14. Otani and Fujinami are going to get ridiculous contracts when they end up coming over. I bet both of them exceed 200M. Standard pitcher disclaimer of if they stay healthy. How old will they be by then? At least we should have the big tv money by then (hopefully).
  15. Russell reached on an error in his first ab.
  16. I always figured injuries held him back after his strong rookie year and that the reason he performed as well as he did this year was simply because he was healthy. I see no reasn he can't have a similar year statistically next year. I do agree he's not the greatest defensive outfielder and that he makes a more valuable 4th outfielder than starter.
  17. 3-1-2 is probably the order I'd put those in as far as the likelihood of them happening.
  18. So what is our draft position if everything holds and we win?
  19. Turner is doing alright, I have some confidence that Bosio can turn him into a good 4th or 5th starter.
  20. I guess Baez has gotten to the point where he can't even make contact with fastballs now, that first K was on a fastball that seemed to catch a large portion of the plate.
  21. This ump sucks that strike 3 call to Soler was not close
  22. Rosters and observations: http://www.thecubreporter.com/09252014/2014-cubs-arizona-instructional-league My favorite part:
  23. There was an interesting article about what Sheffield thinks is wrong with Javy today. Something about his back leg collapsing. Link: http://es.pn/1CidcTa. Mueller made some comment about how they are happy with the damage he's doing on pitches in the zone. Lately he's been whiffing on clearly hittable pitches right down the middle though. I think pitch recognition is 90% of the problem but mechanics could be a smaller part of the problem.
  24. Only till wood gave up the 4 spot, I kinda figured was over at that point.
