Rodríguez walks two guys, then gives up a home run with two outs to lose the no-hitter and blow the lead. In better reliever news

Rodríguez walks two guys, then gives up a home run with two outs to lose the no-hitter and blow the lead.

Manuel Rodríguez trying to complete the combined no-hitter for Tennessee.

A college RH?! So two years ago Cubs pass on Ford in this mock, Joe Mack is the first HS C off the board, de Castillo doesn’t go until pick 20 to the Yankees, other stuff McGreevy sounds like a Cleveland Baseball Team pick.

And Tennessee is facing Shane Baz. Cam Sanders: 5 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 7 K

Morel in center

Adam Laskey makes his pro debut and Ethan Hearn makes his full season debut.

On top of #22, Adán Sánchez, the Cubs have two new names on BA's list which was increased to 35: https://www.baseballamerica.com/rankings/2021-22-mlb-international-prospects-big-board/ 28. Alexis Hernández, SS, Dominican Republic - Cristian's younger brother. Has plus speed and is able to generate easy power but not as good as his older brother. Expecting a 7-figure bonus. 34. Jefferson Rojas, SS, Dominican Republic - Has a lean, athletic build with solid bat-to-ball skills and game performance. Just a reminder that BA rates their top IFAs by anticipated signing bonus.

Chase Strumpf doubled.

Shrug

Manuel Espinoza gets the Opening Day nod for the Pelicans. The 2-6 in the lineup is fun and that’s with Hearn not starting tonight.

Tennessee PPD

Hah!

Chase Strumpf getting some love from BA:

Keeping/acquiring guys like Graham, Ifedi and Dalton at the expense of better players like Fuller and Leno seems like a mistake.
