Here's hoping the injury is nothing more than soreness. Quade has been decidedly mediocre with handling the pitching staff this season, though.

:good: Go Kirk!

I believe the Cubs announced him as an outfielder. However, he has some experience in the IF in his career. It wouldn't surprise me to see the Cubs try him there, but I'm not expecting it, either.

I wouldn't mind seeing him get an overslot. He's a sophomore who's a bit raw and only recently moved to CF. There's not much power there, but he's really fast and is still refining his game at the plate and in the field.

As a hitter, yes. As a defender, hilariously.

Well, we're boned. Again.

Unofficial report from Twitter is that Zeke DeVoss has signed: Link Waiting for confirmation from elsewhere.

Dear Lord those hats are hideous.

Jordan Zimmerman is good.

Is he the youngest player to make the All Star Game since Junior Griffey in 1990?

Is it me, or is there not much point in keeping Tyler Colvin in AAA any more? He's hitting the ball about as well as can be expected from him.

Also, Starlin Castro is awesome.

How the hell did that get out?

Given the length of this thread and this post, I just had a flashback to 2006.

"I hit the face" and "Assassination" are fantastic.

The 13 Ks in 47 ABs bear watching. Golden was seen as a possible high K guy when he was drafted, as memory serves. Still, he's off to a promising start.

He actually fell because of signability concerns. Plus, Wilken wasn't the scouting director when the Cubs took him. Colvin was a reach by about 5-15 picks, depending on the reports you believe. He had a lot of late helium coming into the draft.

It could well be that Wilken and company were wholly justified in picking Simpson where they did. However, there probably will come a point in Simpson's struggles where I have to wonder whether he will ever get back to 100%. Simpson may never get back to that point. As I've said before, I'm willing to give him a pass on this season. He will have the entire offseason to work out, get back into playing shape, and prove himself next season. However, I am concerned.

Penalver intrigues me since he has a low error rate compared to other shortstops who come through the DSL; I think he's only made 7 errors so far. I'm really curious to see what the defensive reports look like for him. Justin Bour hit HR #17 today. Hopefully the Cubs move him up soon.
