  1. I agree. It was obvious to everyone he had just the 4-seamer going. I would have preferred Prior getting one more start at Iowa. I think the velo will pick up in a start or 2.
  2. Is it official? That seems like the obvious move. Unofficially official. I was told that Reyes will join the I-Cubs tomorrow with Wells so that he can take Soto's spot who will be filling in during Michael's suspension. Ok. I was just looking at TX's link and Carrie was saying Nevin would back up Hank White during the suspension. Didn't think it'd be likely, especially with now 3 catcher on Iowa's roster.
  3. Awesome, much deserved. He's not going with Clay?
  4. Is it official? That seems like the obvious move.
  5. Hopefully Soto then will be promoted to the Cubs during Barrett's suspensio (even though Carrie doesn't think it will happen in that link). Good for Fox, much deserved.
  6. Wow, Blanco hit another HR? Good thing Barrett's getting suspended!! :P
  7. Supposedly France doesn't collect that data. They do have one of the most diverse populations in Europe, but many of them live in inferior conditions.
  8. it will rain but this game will get in today unless something else developes http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/2854/17si4.jpg Agreed. They're playing through what will be the worst of it.
  9. Just like kc said, my concerns with Veal is the combination of his walks with the amount of flyballs he gives up - which will surely turn into more HRs in the PCL and the big leagues.
  10. http://image.weather.com/web/radar/us_ord_closeradar_medium_usen.jpg
  11. He threw a bunch, but they all missed by quite a margin. He basically had one pitch that inning.
  12. Fred, that doesn't make sense. When do you know when Walker breaks out of it? I'd play the best player over the season unless Neifi's really hot for a good stretch of time (.313/.294/.563 in 16 ABs isn't enough ABs for me).
  13. Pie, Marshall, Gallagher, Marmol and Pawelek might do it. I don't think the Cubs have the system to acquire Cabrerra.
  14. Actually, there are stories out there about how his parents freaked out about how much he was throwing at the young age of 13 and took over his workout and training regimen. So, his mom (and dad) might have saved him. :P
  15. But still, Remlinger has always done better against righties than lefties.
  16. The Chiefs celebrating: http://peoriachiefs.com.ismmedia.com/ISM2/NewsManager/1069.jpeg.300.jpeg
  17. Thanks for the link, Quakers. Great to see Boise will be televising their home games again.
  18. Probable Starters: Iowa: RHP Jerome Williams (2-3, 4.43 ERA, 40.1 IP, 20/15, 1.70 WHIP) vs. LHP Jason Vargas (2-2, 5.08 ERA) Peoria: RHP Todd Blackford (6-2, 4.00 ERA, 72 IP, 31/35, 1.47 WHIP) @ RHP Jeff Gray (2-5, 6.02 ERA) Chatanooga: RHP Josh Hall (2-1, 3.77 ERA) @ Tennessee: LHP Matt Chico (1-1, 2.52 ERA)
  19. I don't think anyone would say winning isn't important in the minors, just that the development of the players to become solid big leaguers should be the first priority. Hopefully the Jaxx win (and Chatanooga loses) tomorrow so they have a shot at a first half berth just like the Chiefs.
