Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 5-9-16
Aaron Kennelly replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
Carl Edwards Jr. with 3 K's in 1 inning of work. 1 hit and no walks. That's his fourth consecutive appearance that he hasn't allowed a walk. His last four appearances: 4.1IP 2H 0ER 0BB 8K -
Can we just assign them days of the week when one of them plays the outfield? Or maybe we can just switch them around each inning? Have them draw straws before the game? Or maybe the last one to make an out has to go out to left field?

This is where I am at. I am really missing all of his SuperDongs. But the wait is much more palatable knowing he is lurking. We are already a terrifying menace. And this big, beautiful dongsmith is just chilling on ice.

Yes, the 24-6 Cubs are quite known for playing scared.

http://m.mlb.com/video/v673941983/wshchc-grimm-escapes-a-basesloaded-jam What a sexy play. He makes it look effortless, too. Here's a screenshot. Look how far back Javy is playing -- and that's with some time after contact before the camera pans over to him. If he can make the play on that ball, being positioned there, there's really nothing he can't do. http://i.imgur.com/Vj7aR3s.jpg

It's just a shame that Willson Contreras wasn't there to see Javy be Javy. Though, I am starting to come around to Vinestal's side. Federowicz has undoubtedly cost our run differential a couple of runs.
-
Even if he is a mole that has infiltrated their board, circumstances have pretty much made him the greatest troll ever. He is so confident that the Cubs will blow it at every turn, and yet we never lose. The stars have aligned properly for his shtick to work.

I thought it was interesting that Javy said in the post-game that he likes playing third base the most right now. I tend to agree with that sentiment, though it sucks that it comes at the expense of Bryant moving to the outfield. Javy knows that he is a beast over there, though. His skill set is probably best suited for third. And with it being the hot corner, it definitely makes sense. Javy goes from 0 to 100 real quick, and he doesn't like doing things like being deliberate and considering the consequences of his actions. He does everything fast. There's probably nobody more suited for a position where you make plays at such a breakneck speed.
-
Same here. But, to be fair, I try to will him into being the hero of every game he plays in.
-
David Ross is gonna be tired as hell. Please come back, Miggy. Oh and let's dong the hell out of these guys and get 7+ from Jon to give the pen some reprieve. This week was fun as hell. But we need a little less drama for a bit. Let's win 'em all by at least 5 or 6.
-
I'm so damn happy that Javy is a part of the core again.
-
Javy!
-
Javy. horsefeathering. Baez.
-
I mean, he is blocking the plate. Horrible, horrible send, though.
-
Doing it against Papelbon will be even more enjoyable.
-
ARGGHHH!
-
Good start!
-
Great call. Sorry, Bryce, but you should ask your manager to reconsider having Ryan Zimmerman behind you.
-
Phew
-
Oh dear.
-
Or not
-
Ring him up!
-
Bunt into a double play.
-
Just a little BABIP correction.
-
Ah hell.
