    Myrtle Beach’s roster: https://atmilb.com/2JhlQuz 6 top 30 prospects on the roster: Alex Lange, Bryan Hudson, Keegan Thompson, Aramis Ademan, DJ Wilson and Wladimir Galindo. No Erling Moreno. Since Moreno didn’t make a full season roster, I guess we can assume he’s hurt again.

    Hey, he’s not concerned about his diminished velocity.
  4. CaliforniaRaisin
    He also said that Vasquez, the teenage SS they drafted from Puerto Rico, hit a HR, has broad shoulders, and projects decent/solid power for a SS. Said he's had a good camp. (He lists 6'1 185). BA was pretty positive about his defense. So might be a guy to watch for. I hadn't recalled him being that tall. He didn't hit much last summer. That's the best velocity readings I've read on Thompson since his freshman year before he blew his elbow out.

    Jesse Rogers is an idiot and everyone of you need to stop retweeting him into my feed.

    https://www.thecubreporter.com/04022018/home-runs-reign-down-riverview-park Starters who were left behind by their full-season team so they can get in some work. Looks like that means Hatch, Abbott and Farrell will be slated to start Saturday. SQUAD "A" PITCHERS: 1. Thomas Hatch: 4.1 IP, 6 H, 4 R (4 ER), 2 BB, 4 K, 1 HBP, 1 HR, 1 WP, 1 GIDP, 5/3 GO/AO, 75 pitches (43 strikes) 2. Cory Abbott: 4.2 IP, 6 H, 3 R (3 ER), 0 BB, 8 K, 1 HR, 1 WP, 1 GIDP, 3/2 GO/AO, 67 pitches (46 strikes) SQUAD "B" PITCHERS: 1. Luke Farrell: 4.0 IP, 6 H, 3 R (3 ER), 2 BB, 3 K, 2 HR, 2/7 GO/AO, 78 pitches (47 strikes) 2. Adbert Alzolay: 3.2 IP, 3 H, 5 R (5 ER), 3 BB, 3 K, 1 HR, 1 WP, 0/4 GO/AO, 56 pitches (33 strikes) Arizona Phil added this note on where Alzolay is:
  7. CaliforniaRaisin
    I’m pretty sure it was a small injury holding him back because we would’ve heard something by now I f it was an innings timing strategy. That said, hopefully it works out that way if he does have a big league impact. And FYI, Alzolay bumps up to 126 IP last year when you count his AFL innings.

    South Bend’s roster released: https://www.milb.com/sb-cubs/news/south-bend-cubs-announce-2018-opening-day-roster/c-270488348 No big shocks based on Arizona Phil’s posts. Albertos, Little, Assad, Abbot, Uelman, Amaya, Peguero at South Bend and no Ademan.
  9. CaliforniaRaisin
    So dumb. Shouldn’t you not be shifting in that situation then?
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/ct-spt-cubs-adbert-alzolay-notes-20180401-story.html Alzolay not ready, building his arm strength and about 2 weeks behind. ODLC and Hatch at Tennessee. Lange at Myrtle Beach, Albertos and Little at South Bend.

    The Dodgers outscored the Giants 14-2 this weekend and somehow only split their 4-game series.

    Wow, you’re really trying to block Lackey from your memory.
  15. CaliforniaRaisin
    Beef O’Grady Bowl
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    Multiple missed strike calls (note pitch 4 of that at bat too).
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    What the hell was up with the pitch selection for a Yu?
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    Uhh, okay?
  19. CaliforniaRaisin
    Wow, the Marlins are starting Despaigne?? That seems silly.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    So Strop, Cishek, Duensing and maybe Carl available? And Montgomery.
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    Kenley Jansen averaged 89 mph on his cutter today and topped out at 90. (Also Kershaw and Wood's velocity are down too.) Hand gave up 5 and Rivero 4 in blown saves.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Damn, Morrow won't be available tomorrow either.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    The Cubs went from averaging 8 runs/game to 3.12 runs/game in one game.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    https://www.thecubreporter.com/03302018/young-quintet-hits-highlights-sb-cubs-win-fitch-park José Albertos threw 3.2 scoreless but surrendered 8 base runners. Keegan Thompson was very good for Myrtle Beach: 5.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R (2 ER), 1 BB, 3 K, 7/4 GO/AO, 73 pitches (50 strikes)
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    Pretty underwhelming stuff from Underwood.
