  1. He just looks absolutely uncomfortable at the plate right now. Timing is a mess.
  2. This version of Kohl Franklin is scary good.
  3. On only 13 pitches. Has he ever had an inning where he threw 10 of 13 pitches for strikes?
  4. Horton pulled in the 3rd after allowing a swinging bunt single to 3B; getting another swinging K (on a fastball); and a jam-shot bloop single. He was at 47 pitches.
  5. Their manager should be fired for having both Hernandez and Ballesteros out of the lineup on the same day.
  6. Horton's slider is as advertised. Got 2 Ks and a dribbler in front of the mound off the slider in the 1st.
  7. And none of the groundballs were hit hard. A different right side of the infield gets at least 2 of those.
  8. You may be right. Milb.com lists Michael Arias as the starter today, although it's fair to note that they get it wrong plenty of times throughout the year.
  9. Paciolla was plunked in the wrist in his very first PA in EXST and exited the game, per AZPhil. Hopefully it's just a bruise. https://www.thecubreporter.com/cubs-edge-giants-extended-spring-training-opener-papago-park
  10. 5 hits allowed and 4 were ground balls. Was pretty efficient as well (especially for him) with 61 pitches in his 4 innings.
  11. Mash Mervis grand slam. Off a lefty again. He’s seen almost exclusively lefties so far.
  12. Which also brings out the fact that AZPhil, for all the awesomeness that he provides, is not a scout.
  13. That's a really fun team to follow.
  14. No Porter Hodge at SB means he's either Tennesee bound or on the IL. He just pitched down in AZ so here's hoping it's the former.
  15. AZPhil's list of stretched out pitchers for SB is Birdsell/Hodge/Little/Gallardo/Connor Noland/Adam Laskey/Adam Thoreson. Kohl Franklin is listed as on the roster but isn't stretched out.
  16. It’s only been like 6 PAs, but Davis just hasn’t looked comfortable at all.
  17. Mervis walks after they took out the righty and brought in a junkballing lefty. Reached base 4 times against lefties today.
  18. Mervis back to back bombs with Bote. This one was off a breaking ball. Still the same lefty.
  19. Mervis turned on a 93 mph fastball from a lefty. Good stuff.
  20. Well dammit. Thanks for the heads up.
  21. Where is Ben Leeper? Did I miss that he got hurt?
  22. It's about time Raisin got back to work. Slacker has had 6 months off. But obviously, a preemptive thank you for the daily threads in here.
  23. Fairly certain this only applies to minor leaguers. But at least some of the minor leaguers will get a pay raise, even if it’s at the expense of some others getting cut. Owners have been trying to cut the Domestic Reserve List anyway so the pay increase feels like a win.
  24. Brown starting in AAA would be fun. I'm on the "Jensen is a reliever" train anyway, but I'd still like him to throw starter's inning. Neidert and Elias are exactly the type of veteran JAGs I couldn't remember.
