  1. 4 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 6 K, 56-41 pitches-strikes 2 over the minimum now thanks to the 2 hits (one double play) and a strikeout WP in the 4th.
  2. Horton now at 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K, 31 pitches (23 strikes)
  3. Cade Horton with an IF single, a 4-6-3 GIDP and a groundout for a 5-pitch 2nd inning. 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K, 15 pitches-12 strikes
  4. Cade Horton with a 1-2-3 first with 2 strikeouts in his Tennessee debut.
  5. The top Korean prep pitcher in the 2023 class got $750k and it sounds like the kid you're referring to - Jang Hyun-seok - is better so I think Hyun-seok will wait till the 2024 signing period and get 7 figures. The Cubs are tied to Fernando Cruz for either "around" $4 million (per BA) or "about" $4.5 million (per FanGraphs) with a pool space of $5,152,000 so they have somewhere from $652k to $1.152 million remaining. Admittedly they might have already tied that money up with someone else who hasn't been reported.
  6. Per Fangraphs, the Cubs did send Tampa $220k in IFA pool space (they didn’t actually send money; the Cubs pool is just reduced by that amount and Tampa’s increased by that amount): https://blogs.fangraphs.com/rays-add-depth-without-using-40-man-space-seattle-scoops-dfad-bazardo/ This was a trade for the 1/15/23 IFA pool space. You can only trade current year pool money and this period goes through 12/15. By my notes, after the just announced signing of Dayan Rivero, the Cubs had $270k before this trade with Tampa unless I missed a bonus besides Derniche Valdez, Ludwing Espinoza, Ángel Cepeda, Eriandys Ramón, Alexey Lumpoy and Dayan Rivero. FYI, they were close to some reliever trades when time ran out yesterday. I thought we were on the right track thinking the Cubs were just getting lower on their 2023 CBT commitment in advance of acquiring a reliever with this Sampson trade but they also got the Nationals to pay down Jeimer’s salary so I’m not quite as sure now.
  7. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa vs. Toledo, 12:08 pm Tennessee vs. Chattanooga, 6:00 pm South Bend vs. Wisconsin, 6:05 pm Myrtle Beach at Down East (resumption of game suspended on 8/1), 4:30 pm Myrtle Beach at Down East, TBD ACL Cubs vs. ACL A's, 8:00 pm DSL Cubs Red at DSL LA Dodgers Mega, 10:00 am DSL Cubs Blue have the day off Probable Starters: Iowa: TBD Tennessee: RHP Chris Kachmar (47 IP, 4.60 ERA, 5.34 FIP, 52 K, 16 BB) South Bend: RHP Brody McCullough (16.2 IP, 5.40 ERA, 4.62 FIP, 14 K, 6 BB) Myrtle Beach: LHP Jackson Ferris (31.2 IP, 3.69 ERA, 3.21 FIP, 42 K, 20 BB)
  8. Moisés Ballesteros up to an .878 OPS as a 19-year old in high-A.
  9. Owen Caissie with his second homer of the game. Leads the SL with 20 and is OPSing .943 at 21.
  10. Aliendo and Caissie with homers for Tennessee. Christian Franklin with a HR for South Bend.
  11. Shaw triples in his first South Bend at bat. Triantos then homers.
  12. Shaw batting second at SS, Rivera batting fifth at 3B for South Bend. They sandwich Triantos and Ballesteros in a fun lineup (that should only get more fun when Alcántara comes back).
  13. Alcántara isn’t on the South Bend IL.
  14. I’m with Craig, this feels more like making sure the Cubs are under the first luxury tax threshold after adding Jeimer and possibly making another move today.
  15. Brad did the research since at least 2006 for you:
  16. Zyhir Hope just hit his first professional home run.
  17. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa vs. Toledo, 6:38 pm Tennessee vs. Chattanooga, 6:00 pm South Bend vs. Wisconsin, 6:05 pm Myrtle Beach at Down East, 6:00 pm ACL Cubs at ACL White Sox, 8:00 pm DSL Cubs Blue vs. DSL Tigers 1 (game one), 9:00 am DSL Cubs Blue at DSL Tigers 1 (game two), TBD DSL Cubs Red vs. DSL Orioles Orange, 10:00 am Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Caleb Kilian (82.1 IP, 4.15 ERA, 5.09 FIP, 61 K, 27 BB) Tennessee: RHP Walker Powell (77.2 IP, 4.06 ERA, 5.19 FIP, 69 K, 16 BB) South Bend: RHP Luis Devers (28 IP, 6.75 ERA, 6.26 FIP, 21 K, 21 BB) Myrtle Beach: RHP Nick Hull (68.1 IP, 3.82 ERA, 3.72 FIP, 68 K, 28 BB)
