Inflict pain on Law please.

Are you horsefeathering kidding me?

Albert...

How in the hell does Javy know he's safe on that?
-
That's awfully mean of them to make Eddie Butler catch for his replacement.

I haven't been able to watch much since we started scoring 10 runs every game. So this one is definitely going to be a 3-1 game with the wind blowing out, since I'm watching.
-
Oh wow.
-
At least it was a solo shot, I guess.

I'm not trying to bite your head off. It just seems like you worry about stuff a lot: "Zobrist's contact% is down after 10 games... We don't have any of the league leaders in average exit velocity... Our line drive% is down..." I keep seeing you harping on peripheral stats that may or may not mean anything long-term, without ever seeing you mention, say, that Kris Bryant's contact% is above 80%. You seem to pick and choose which peripheral stats to care about, and you always seem to pick the ones that look bad for Cubs' players. I don't think you are too negative or anything. You are a knowledgeable poster, and you aren't exclusively negative or anything. I think you've been a good addition to the board. I just think you worry too much.

Yep, Ks and BBs (Ks being at the forefront) are my two go-to stats for both pitchers and hitters, most especially in the minors, since hitters will often develop more power as they get older.

Is there nothing you don't worry about?

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 5-20-17

So Justin Grimm sucks. -
Of 272 players with 200 batted balls last year, no Cub ranked above #100 in average exit velocity, and they won 103 games.

I'll be at the South Bend game tonight. -
Good for the Brewers that they got to enjoy first place for a day or so. Back to the middle of the pack you go.

We could just send Happ back to the minors, where he had a .733 OPS in AA last year. It's not like he's going Trout right now. He looks kinda shaky in the outfield himself. He's made contact on like 55% of his swings, and one of his home runs was a fly out on any other night of the year. He's played well and is hot, but some more seasoning might suit him well.

There is a 0% chance Schwarber gets sent down.

I still don't know what to think. I never thought he'd have a serious role on this team, barring injury. So I'm not sure how to proceed. But I'm afraid he will strike out too much to be too much of an asset, if he's mainly playing a corner outfield spot.
-
This isn't stopping anytime soon. We're about to get on a serious roll.

horsefeathering BABIP
-
He is. He started off slow and his plate discipline numbers were a little out of whack. But he's been himself for awhile now and has just been getting BABIP'd. He had stretches like that last year, too. He seems to either be blazing hot or just... a little off. I think he's going to get real hot now.
