As Cubs Beat Cards, Wood Beats Wizards

Submitted by Cubnut on
While the Cubs were busy dumping the Cardinals Tuesday night, Kerry Wood was earning a victory for the Class ‘A’ Peoria Chiefs over the Fort Wayne Wizards. Woody entered the game in the 5th inning with the Chiefs already ahead 4-0. He threw 12 pitches, recording two ground outs and a fly out while walking one. According to cubs.com, Wood's pitches were clocked between 91 and 94 mph. Wood is slated to pitch back-to-back games this Thursday and Friday, when the Chiefs host the Dayton Dragons. Cubs GM Jim Hendry is scheduled to attend Friday night’s game. In five minor league outings this year spanning five innings, Wood has allowed one earned run. striking out five and walking two. He has been touched for four hits.

"i guess he replaces petrick in a couple weeks" Is he even better than Petrick at this point? All of the roundups I have seen on his rehab outings suggests he has only average stuff.

OT: Is Dusty manging the Braves because ever since they signed Julio Franco's carcass he seems to be their everyday 1B.

Hard to look worse than Soriano in his last AB tonight. I'm no hater but yikes, it seems like he swung at ball four about six times.

So when should we expect to see Kerry called up at this rate? I would think he would be with the team within two weeks.

Soriano needs his little buddy (Pie) back on the team to boost his performance. He seems to enjoy playing much more with Pie on the team. Money may not be a motivator; however, I would expect a greater desire to perform to the expectation of a player considered to be worth $136 million.

Soriano has no patience on the plate, and thus slumps worse then some batters because he can't take walks even if his swing is off. All guys slump, it's just patience never slumps.

"Patience never slumps" That is a great line.

There is no truth to the rumor that every orthopedic physician in Peoria is on emergency alert.

Submitted by Newport on Wed, 07/25/2007 - 07:39 pm

I see no reason to bring KW back before mid-September. Might as well keep him "fresh" for a late season wild card/division run. This way maybe his arm stays attached through October.

The Real Neal — July 24, 2007 @ 11:20 pm Hey AZ Phil, C C Perez = Prospect? ======================== REAL NEAL: Carlos Perez is a good young catcher (decent arm, good receiving skills, some pop in his bat), but he is repeating AZL (he was also at Mesa last year) so his '07 offensive numbers need to be understood in that context. He should have been promoted to Boise in 2007, but he's blocked by Josh Donaldson, Mario Mercedes, and Welington Castillo, so he got the remedial shaft in order to get him maximum playing time, which he would not get at Boise or Peoria. . The catchers at the bottom of the pipeline (W. Castillo at Peoria, J. Donaldson at Boise, and C. Perez at Mesa) are the best ones in the Cubs organization (or at least they are the ones with the most potential), and 2006 7th round pick Steve Clevenger (who was converted to catcher in the Arizona Instructional League last Fall to maximize his versatility) is an excellent left-handed hitter with a picture-perfect stroke and a high baseball IQ.

    I don’t buy that. They had been doing that for years.

    They did it with Matt Holliday. They did it with John Lackey. They did it with Mark Mulder. They did it with Jason Heyward, who had a great year for them. I’m sure there’s more but those come to mind immediately.

    I attribute it more to a breakdown in what they’re doing in terms of development than a culture thing.

  • TarzanJoeWallis (view)

    They won those trades and sacrificed their culture. That’s exactly their problem.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    The other part that’s kind of crazy is they made two very high profile trades, one for Goldschmidt and one for Arenado, and they very clearly won those trades. They just haven’t been able to develop players the last handful of years the way they usually do.

    I guess the moral there is it’s hard to stay on top of your game and be good at what you do in perpetuity.

    Marmol was extended at the beginning of the year. Two years I believe.

    Craig Counsell doesn’t have a timetable for Cody Bellinger who technically has two cracked ribs on his right side. CT scan showed it today.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    Thought it might have been David Peralta given the open 40 man spot and how PCA has played so far. 

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    I hope they keep Mozeliak a few more years. Marmol too!

  • crunch (view)

    wow, counsell coming with the early lineup.  rarity.

    PCA called up.

  • crunch (view)

    welp...

    bellinger...fractured rib.

    a not-very-ready PCA will probably be called up when it would be much better for him to be in AAA getting regular ABs.
