  1. Owen Caissie’s EVs are in the 99th percentile of all professional hitters. Moisés Ballesteros is close to a promotion to high-A. Alexander Canario is running and taking BP. Ed Howard is playing in extended spring training games but it’s “still a bit of a touch and go situation,” whatever that means.
  2. FanGraphs updated their top 118: 29. Pete Crow-Armstrong 75. Kevin Alcántara 87. Ben Brown 91. Hayden Wesneski (who has graduated) 108. Cristian Hernández
  3. Jonathan Mayo’s mock: Dollander went 9, Nimmala 11, Houck 12 and Bradfield 16.
  4. Jackson Ferris getting some love nationally:
  5. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa at Indianapolis, 6:05 pm Tennessee at Pensacola, 6:35 pm South Bend at Beloit, 6:35 pm Myrtle Beach vs. Augusta, 6:05 pm Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Hayden Wesneski (AAA debut) Tennessee: LHP Jordan Wicks (30.1 IP, 2.67 ERA, 3.31 FIP, 39 K, 10 BB) South Bend: RHP Tyler Santana (23.2 IP, 6.08 ERA, 4.62 FIP, 26 K, 17 BB) Myrtle Beach: LHP Jackson Ferris (6 IP, 1.50 ERA, 1.88 FIP, 9 K, 2 BB)
  6. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa at Indianapolis, 10:05 pm Tennessee at Pensacola, 6:35 pm South Bend at Beloit, 6:35 pm Myrtle Beach vs. Augusta, 6:05 pm Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Javier Assad (10.2 IP, 3.38 ERA, 3.29 FIP, 10 K, 4 BB) Tennessee: RHP Kohl Franklin (4 IP, 13.50 ERA, 6.52 FIP, 2 K, 1 BB) South Bend: RHP Richard Gallardo (34.1 IP, 2.88 ERA, 2.97 FIP, 28 K, 7 BB) Myrtle Beach: LHP Marino Santy (18 IP, 3.00 ERA, 4.14 FIP, 28 K, 17 BB)
  7. Strong outing from Arias: 4 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 8 K
  8. Good recovery in the 2nd and 3rd for Horton. It does feel like teams are running/stealing on him with ease.
  9. I couldn’t believe any of the 3 homers he gave up actually got out.
  10. That’s because I looked at the wrong line on Fangraphs. Those are his big league Ks and BBs. He’s got 16 Ks and 7 BBs at AAA.
  11. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa at Indianapolis, 12:35 pm Tennessee at Pensacola, 6:35 pm South Bend at Beloit, 11:05 am Myrtle Beach vs. Augusta, 6:05 pm Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Caleb Kilian (21.1 IP, 5.48 ERA, 7.32 FIP, 16 K, 7 BB) Tennessee: RHP Walker Powell (22.1 IP, 3.22 ERA, 5.66 FIP, 24 K, 6 BB) South Bend: RHP Caleb Horton (3.2 IP, 14.73 ERA, 14.33 FIP, 4 K, 3 BB) Myrtle Beach: RHP Michael Arias (15.2 IP, 5.74 ERA, 3.96 FIP, 24 K, 12 BB)
  12. He pitched yesterday in Arizona so he clearly isn't hurt. The Cubs pulled the plug quickly on Luke Little starting and Palencia is similarly Rule 5 eligible this offseason and combined with the starting depth, they're probably more willing to quickly push him to the pen.
  13. If they were in contention last September, the Cubs would have called him up for their bullpen all the way from high-A.
  14. Ben Brown, the hottest prospect in baseball last week:
  15. Jefferson Rojas hit two HRs in Arizona on Monday, including one against big leaguer and all around [expletive] Zach Davies. Daniel Palencia threw 1 scoreless inning while on the developmental list. https://www.thecubreporter.com/rojas-brings-thunder-and-palencia-brings-heat-salt-river-fields
  16. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa at Indianapolis, 5:35 pm Tennessee at Pensacola, 6:35 pm South Bend at Beloit, 6:05 pm Myrtle Beach vs. Augusta, 6:05 pm Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Ben Brown (10.2 IP, 0.84 ERA, 1.69 FIP, 17 K, 5 BB) Tennessee: RHP Porter Hodge (22.1 IP, 6.04 ERA, 3.51 FIP, 23 K, 10 BB) South Bend: RHP Connor Noland (23.1 IP, 3.09 ERA, 2.99 FIP, 22 K, 7 BB) Myrtle Beach: RHP Grant Kipp (21.1 IP, 5.06 ERA, 4.32 FIP, 23 K, 14 BB)
  17. BA did their review of the Cubs IFA class. Badler says the Cubs still have about $500k available. Outside of the big 3 who all signed for 7-figures, every signing this IFA class has been for 5-figures or less. Some sleepers: Emmanoel Madeira, RHP, Brazil - $10k bonus Albert Gutierrez, 3B, Dominican Republic - $10k bonus Saul Siri, RHP, Dominican Republic - $20k bonus
  18. 15. PCA 68. Cade Horton 75. Kevin Alcántara Davis dropped out
  19. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa vs. Toledo, 1:08 pm Tennessee vs. Montgomery, 1:00 pm South Bend at Wisconsin, 1:10 pm Myrtle Beach vs. Lynchburg, 5:05 pm Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Kyle Hendricks (rehab) Tennessee: LHP DJ Herz (3.2 IP, 0.00 ERA, 3.80 FIP, 4 K, 3 BB) South Bend: RHP Manuel Espinoza (2 IP, 0.00 ERA, 3.96 FIP, 1 K, 1 BB) Myrtle Beach: RHP Brody McCullough (19.2 IP, 3,20 ERA, 2.96 FIP, 25 K, 6 BB)
