    lol and then he headbutts his teammate with his helmet on during the pitching change He gets hurt all over the field and then comes out of a head butt unscathed. I don’t get it.

    That whole sequence was so damn weird and hilarious.

    10/26: LF DJ Wilson 0/6, 2 K 2B T. Giambrone 3/6, R, HR (2), 3 RBI, K SS N. Hoerner 4/5, 2 R, HBP 3B PJ Higgins 0/5, R, BB, K C J. Pereda 2/5, R, 2 RBI; defense: 0/1 CS Giambrone is batting .435/.480/.739/1.219. Nico is up to a .373/.400/,490/.890. Hoerner is 4th in batting average in the AFL among those who qualify. At this rate, he has a good chance of joining Amaya as a top 100 prospect by the time the AFL is over.

    I see by your surprise that you have wisely avoided Cubs Twitter.

    Joe Buck apparently would call both the Rams and Dodgers game Sunday.

    10/25: SS N. Hoerner 2/4, SB (1) SP E. Leal 4 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K, 5-3 GO-FO, 47-29 pitches-strikes Nico is now at .326/.347/.457/.803 in 49 PA.

    Rule 5 eligible. Will be interesting to see if he interests teams since his profile normally wouldn’t. Rondón will definitely warrant some Rule 5 interest as a LOOGY if he keeps this up.

    Adam: How has Nico Hoerner looked? Eric A Longenhagen: Fine. 5 arm is not ideal at short and he has a weird arm stroke, but I bet they let him play there. Chaise: Did you watch Steele yesterday? Better numbers but did the process back up the results? Eric A Longenhagen: Nope I was at SRF for Dup/Buk

    Crane Kenney: The Cubs are viewed (at least from the outside) as one of the more analytical clubs. However, it seems that their player dev isn’t on the same level as other, similar, teams such as the Yankees and Dodgers. Why is that? Eric A Longenhagen: They’ve been pretty conservative with amateur talent acquisition. A lot of polished Mexican players on the international market, lots of college arms in the draft.

    Mike: With the Mesas and Sandy Gaston signed, who is the top IFA left (if any)? Kiley McDaniel: Have referenced this in a few places, but there’s basically no consensus $500K+ prospects left right now. Asia is light, there may be some hideout guys in Mexico but that is contingent on MLB opening the country pretty quickly (which is unlikely). Kiley McDaniel: 17-19 year old latin prospects always develop late and pop up in the middle six figures, some new Cubans may pop up, etc. but there isn’t a guy right now and there isn’t even a Cuban name that’s widely known that teams are waiting on–that market is pretty barren, which is why most of the new ones you hear about are 16 years old with no track record. That age group is where the Cuban talent hasn’t been picked over yet.

    WTF are the Orioles going to do with their $6 million, some of which they traded for? I wonder if the Cubs can acquire some cap space on the cheap if they’ve found one of these late bloomers or someone in Asia (or even Mexico whenever that market opens up again).
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    Agreee. I’ve been under the impression he’ll skip high-A with a good AFL.

    10/22: Nico doubled off Forrest Whitley DH N. Hoerner 1/4, 2B (1), 2 K
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Danny Hultzen re-signed with the Cubs. So did Chris Pieters, Gioskar Amaya, Roberto Caro and Erick Castillo. https://www.thecubreporter.com/comment/261805#comment-261805

    My God, that was a bad ass run to the 1.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    Cut Parkey if he can’t make a 57-yard FG in today’s NFL. At least try a Hail Mary instead of whatever that was.
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yeah, don’t get cute and just run it in like that.
