  5. Cam Smith ended up 2/4 with 2 singles and a strikeout in his South Bend debut.
  6. His 5th HR with Myrtle Beach despite missing two months to injury.
  7. Cam Smith got a single in his first high-A plate appearance.
  8. Because good pitching prospects don’t normally go unless they really need to make up lost innings.
  9. We’re still waiting for a formal list of players but it looks like Luis Rujano will be going:
  10. Cubs have two of the top 20 hottest prospects in baseball last week (including the hottest one): https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/ranking-the-20-hottest-mlb-prospects-hot-sheet-8-27-24/
  11. Honestly, it felt like he was a slam dunk choice to go to the AFL.
  12. Ethan Hearn to the IL. Sorry, Tom.
  13. Scheduled Games (Central Time): Iowa vs. Memphis, 6:38 pm Tennessee at Rocket City, 6:35 pm South Bend vs. Great Lakes, 6:05 pm Myrtle Beach at Down East (resumption of game suspended on 8/11), 4:05 pm Myrtle Beach vs. Down East, TBD Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Caleb Kilian (26.2 IP, 3.04 ERA, 3.63 FIP, 20 K, 8 BB) Tennessee: RHP Antonio Santos (55.2 IP, 4.04 ERA, 4.47 FIP, 65 K, 20 BB) South Bend: RHP Grant Kipp (28 IP, 4.82 ERA, 4.63 FIP, 27 K, 15 BB) Myrtle Beach (regularly scheduled game): RHP Yenrri Rojas (54 IP, 3.33 ERA, 3.96 FIP, 31 K, 17 BB)
  14. South Bend has 2 weeks left in their season. Tennessee has 3 weeks plus the playoffs. Would be great if Cam forced the Cubs’ hand yet again and got promoted to Tennessee in two weeks, a la Matt Shaw last year.

  16. Yeah, the Cubs like to use the off day to give players time for promotions/travel/getting settled.
