    Bastards. Yeah, that sucks more than losing the game to NJ. I'm still pissed about that 3 Eddie pulled out of his ass against the Bucks a couple of weeks ago. He had the game-winning tip today.

    I would think Schidmazaazaz(sp?) before Veal.... Samardzija might make it to the big leagues before Veal (in Sept., since he's on the 40-man) but Veal is more likely to stick in the big leagues first. Veal is one level ahead of Samardzija and more advanced. Of course, amongst the minor leaguers, Sean Gallagher is closer to the bigs than Veal or the Shark.

    Hey, at least we're paying less than the Phillies will be for Brett Myers. (no, I'm not twisting the knife, abuck!) he'll be back in the rotation in time for the fantasy postseason. :D You hope.

    Bastards.

    He threw the slider his junior year but before that he threw a curve. He's still learning that slider (and his change came his junior year too). While he does have a sinker, Jeff has gotten ahead of his share of batters but has not finished them off, so I do hope he's trying to get his Ks too.
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    Exactly.
  11. CaliforniaRaisin
    Jeff still not missing any bats. Or allowing runs. He's been getting a lot of 2-strike counts, though. Gotta improve the out pitch. Daytona loses 6-4.

    Petrick looked really good against his two batters - he came in with the bases loaded and struck out two guys. Good heat and offspeed, I hear. :D Stupid rain delay cuts his outing.

    Since the Super Bowl?
  14. CaliforniaRaisin
    Me too.

    Gallagher's final line is: 6.2 IP, 2 ZER, 5 H, 8 K/3 BB Daytona delayed by rain, down 5-4. Brian posted Jeff Samardzija's final line. Mueller gave up 3 in the 6th but Billy Petrick came in and got 2 Ks to end the jam before the rains came. Looks like they're getting ready to resume the game. Iowa up 4-0. Les Walrond with 6 shutout.

    My goodness, so many rain and snow outs in the minors so far.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Love the Felix Pie rain delay story.

    Let us know how he looked if you go! oh, i'm definitely going....already have tickets for sunday and tuesday's games....just need to find out when he is pitching. Well, if you assume that his outing on Monday would be the equivalent of a side session, then he'd be able to start Thursday. If you want four-days rest, he'd throw on Saturday. But those are only guesses, who knows what the I-Cubs are going to do.

    http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/draft/news/263730.html Scherzer signed with the independent Ft. Worth Cat (as did former Cub prospect Chadd Blasko).
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    By the way, I read somewhere that Sean Marshall should be up with Iowa sometime next week. Hopefully Mateo isn't far behind.

    Considering patience has been his biggest knock all the way through our system, it was a very pleasant surprise to see him taking some pitches, while at the same time being aggressive. I would like to see a slight adjustment to his swing though - too much of a fly ball swing, not enough of a line-drive swing. His patience has improved quite a bit this this season (though it was just a few weeks of minor league games, but he has been talking about how the Cubs have been emhasizing it).
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Not including Walrond, though. Who has the lowest ERA amongst the Cub minor league starters. :P That just just means he has pitched well, not that he's actually "good". Not much of a future for big Les. I know, just messing around. :)

    I'm blaming luck (re: the wind blowing in) for the Cubs only scoring 3 runs yesterday. That is not luck. It's a well known fact of life about April baseball. Which way the wind is blowing is hardly a fact. The winds often are blowing in on cooler/colder days - and there are quite a few of those in April.
