  1. The old dude behind the plate with the yellow M & M Peanut coat needs to realize it's August. I know he's always there with that coat, but isn't there something a bit more lightweight????
  2. Quick, name a worse manager than Ventura Let me get back to you on that, gonna need to research it.
  3. They haven't been since Ventura became the manager.
  4. I want a Cubs sweep, a Sale loss, an angry Hawk and the BP Cup.
  5. Eloy didn't hit a HR - he went 0/4 with a sac fly and a BB: http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?gid=2015_08_15_eveasx_eugasx_1&t=g_box&sid=milb And Villanueva went 0/5 with 2 Ks: http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?gid=2015_08_15_iowaaa_lvgaaa_1&t=g_box&sid=milb What the hell was I looking at?!?!? I check the box scores each day but must've looked at an old one.
  6. Eloy with a dinger for Eugene. C. Villanueva with one for Iowa. Rubi Silva is 26, but played in Cuba. Can he be a MLB player? Here been pretty good at Iowa after a slow start.
  7. Wasn't McNutt the Cubs' top pitching prospect just a couple of years ago?
  8. Willson Contreras is 2 for 2 with an rbi. This kid can hit. Javy with a K in H first AB. Montero is 0 for 2 so far.
  9. I know PJ Francescon is pretty old for AA, but he is dealing this season. If he a prospect at all or is this season just smoke and mirrors? Michael Heesch is also putting up really good numbers at myrtle beach. And what about Wilson Contreras as a catcher. Offensively, he's been really consistent all season, sitting around .330.
  10. Javy is 1 for 2 so far. Olt with a BB and Villanuea is 0 for 2. Miggy is 0-3 with 2 Ks so far at Tennessee. PJ goes 6 innings, allowing a run on 4 hits (HR), 3 Ks and 3 BBs.
  11. Ian Happy up to .290 with a 2 for 5 day. But he had 3 Ks. Miggy was 1 for 3 for Tennessee. Javy was 1 for 4 with an rbi, 2 Ks and a BB.
  12. Carson Sands with a nice outing for Eugene. Got roughed up his last outing.
  13. Then go to a AA game, because McKinney isn't even close to MLB ready yet.
  14. Rookie pitcher Eddie Butler died on the filed: TWICE! Link to article
  15. Javier Baez was 2 for 3 with a BB, 2B, BB and no Ks in his rehab in AZL. Carson Sands had an up and down game: 5 innings,6 hits and 4 BBs, 3 runs -but 0 earned runs to go with 2 Ks. 2012 comp pick Paul Blackburn with a decent outing for Myrtle Beach: 5 1/3 with 4 hits, 4 Ks, 1 BB and 1 ER. Took the loss in a 1-0 game. Corey Black has really been struggling of late at Tennessee. In his last 4 outings, he's gone 3 1/3 and given up 9 total ER. Zac Rosscup finally gave up a run after 4 straight outings of dominance. In his 5 appearances since returning from injury, he has 4 1/3 IP, 2 hits, 2 BBs, 1 ER and 12 Ks. AAAA Mike Olt with a 3-run dong for Iowa. His avg sits at about .260. Throw-in piece in a trade somewhere? Does he have ANY value to anyone??
  16. Pierce Johnson with a decent night so far: 6 innings, 8 Ks, 1 run (earned) but 2 BBs and 5 hits.
  17. Consecutive nights that a highly touted (albit young) 2014 drafted pitcher gets lit up. Hopefully Dylan Cease breaks that trend in his next start.
  18. Definitely a "sell high" guy. Get something for him if you can. May have a decent season for another team but reminds me of the type of guy that will never have sustained success in the bigs.
  19. You can take the uniform off the douche, but a douche is a douche is a douche.
  20. I've noticed his "pickoff yips" are less of a thing when he doesn't let anybody on base. Took him a while, but I'm glad he's adjusted.
  21. Gleyber was 2/5 with a double for South Bend. Chritian Villanueva with another DONG for Iowa in their win. Does he have any possibility of getting a call-up before September? He's gotta have some value, either for the Cubs or in a trade, no?
  22. Carson Sands got absolutely lit up today: 1/3 inning, 1 K, 8 hits, 1 HBP, 1 WP, 9 runs, 9 earned runs. Holy hell!!! :shock:
  23. I kinda like the start time on a Sunday. Gives me a chance to so somethings and still catch the game. Earlier games and I find myself "couching it" the entire day.
