    JP Wheat: 1+ IP, 2 H, 4 ER, 3 BB, 0 K Two AFL appearances and both times, he’s had a scoreless first and got roughed up in his second inning of work.
  2. CaliforniaRaisin
    All in all a good report. Also, I’m guessing his catching in the AFL is worse than in the regular season since he’s working with so many new pitchers.

    Today: SS Ed Howard 1/3, BB RP Mat Peters 0.1 IP, 1 H, 2 ER, 3 BB, 1 K RP Koen Moreno 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4 K Koen averaged 93.1, topped out at 95.5. Savant data for Koen's outing today.

    Ayers went 0/3 with a walk yesterday. One of the outs was a 102.1 mph lineout to LF. No other Cubs got in the game yesterday. Koen Moreno isn't starting today's game but I assume he'll get in as a piggybacking long reliever.

    Cole Mathis hit a sac fly that just missed being a HR - 385 ft, 100.4 mph. DH Owen Ayers 1/4, 3-run HR 1B Cole Mathis 0/2, BB, 2 K RP Luis Martínez-Gőmez 2 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 5 K, 1 HBP

    Owen Ayers 3-run HR in the first AFL game back from the rainouts. OPS up to 1.610 (admittedly a SSS).

    This is fantastic! I have a few that I feel strongly: I think Ty Southisene and Kade Snell will both be at high-A. Otherwise, this feels pretty accurate. Will be interested to see Dominick Reid and Ethan Conrad can both skip to South Bend and if Juan Cabada can skip the complex league (a la Jefferson Rojas). That would be nice.

    Ayers threw out 6/14 would-be base stealers last week in the AFL.

    JP Wheat's first pitch in months is 101.7 mph. 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 1 K, 13 pitches (7 strikes) - only 2 pitches below 100 mph EDIT: Wheat came back out for a second inning and got roughed up.

    I complained to BA and they added Jaxon Wiggins (100.4)... They also added Nate Pearson and Caleb Kilian.

    Saturday's AFL games have already been cancelled due to the remnants of Hurricane Priscilla. We'll see about tomorrow's games.

    Owen Ayers also had a fun AFL debut: 2/3, BB, HR Ed Howard not so much.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    Statcast data at the AFL! Luis Martínez-Gómez: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K. Topped out at 96.4.
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    Owen Ayers (C) is batting 5th and Ed Howard (2B) is batting 9th in tonight's Mesa opener. Koen Moreno will get the start tomorrow.

    The Cubs had 4 of the 125 minor leaguers who threw at least one pitch 100 mph or faster in the minors: https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/all-125-mlb-prospects-who-threw-100-mph-in-the-minor-leagues-in-2025/ Daniel Palencia Joel Sierra JP Wheat Mathew Peters Very weird Wiggins isn't on here since he clearly hit 100 at AAA.

    https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/top-150-minor-league-stuff-leaders-for-2025/ Jaxon Wiggins with the 21st best Stuff+ in the minors at 114 and the 5th best normalized Stuff+ in the minors at 120. Kevin Valdez was the only other Cub in the top 150 at 143 (108 Stuff+, 105 NStuff+). Wiggins had the 7th best FB, Florentino the 15th best slider, Leigh the 8th best curve, Zarraga the 11th best curve and LMG the 5th best splitter in the minors.
