Not happy day in the minor league pipeline discussion arena. John Arguello will be missed.

In reply to by John Beasley

lot of people (including me) are seeing how loved/noticed he was from a broad range of what most people would consider "more important cubs industry insiders." the cubs organization, the GM, many notable sportswriters...even people who never met him, but colleagues are commenting about him, are noting that he must have been something special. Jon Heyman‏ @JonHeyman 3h3 hours ago the tributes to cubs blogger John Arguello are extremely touching. sounds like he was an amazing guy. very sad. i hope he knew how many people respected his work. i hope he knew how many people respected him, period. i've made a few comments about him here, but i wasn't close to him, nor was i a blip in his life. it's just kinda hard to miss his work if you care about the top-to-bottom organization.

how much longer can they just use j.jay as a part time player? how much is almora riding so much pine helping/hurting him? he's had a nice june and his already limited workload was cut in half for july...but he's doing even better. jay and almora aren't exciting players (low power potential), but they keep making things happen on a somewhat consistent level.

heyward!!! way to get back over .310 ob%. solo shot, cubs lead top 11!

cubs win! stl loses. 1.5 game lead...STL 4.5 games back... as an aside, KC and CLE have both won 9 in a row in the AL Central.

    he's a low-level cubs star in the modern history of the cubs (c.zambrano, k.wood, r.dempster, etc), but that star has dimmed...and has been dimming since 2021.

    2024 has been ugly the whole way and we're only in mid-april.  homers aside (even though there's been 7 in 17ip) he gave up 29 hits in 20 spring innings and 31 in 17 regular season innings.

    he's pretty much only got 2 pitches at this point in his career and the mix isn't fooling anyone.  he threw a noticable amount more curves in his last start to add to the mix and it didn't help his issues.  he don't have many moves left to break out.

    Definitely needs a 10 day stint for the hangnail - have to nip those things in the bud or suffer the consequences (ie, more opponent home run derby, etc)

    Thanks for checking and yeah, that’s a double ouch

  • Sonicwind75 (view)

    Believe you are correct, checked and appears Cubs have a $2.51 million obligation to Barnhart this season per Cot's Contracts.  Also paying Trey Mancini $7mil this season.  Ouch.

    m.busch had 0hr and 2 doubles when he was last at wrigley.

    we'll probably see a few more of his jerseys in the seats when they return tomorrow.

    wonder who will go down for taillon.  hey hendricks, you got a hangnail or something?

  • Eric S (view)

    Nice work by Wesneski with some solid defense behind him and the late tack on runs were welcome. Gladly take a 5-4 West Coast swing, particularly down two key starting pitchers … Now just don’t get swept by the Marlins for Pete’s sake. 

  • crunch (view)

    dansby takes the team lead in SB today after a SB with 2 SB total.  the team has 3.  madrigal has the other one.

    cubs also have 7 triples, 7 players each.

    sure am ready for p.wisdom and m.masterboney to swap roster spots.

  • Eric S (view)

    The fifth inning has not been kind to Wicks this season. Giving up leadoff doubles to Tucker Barnhart is also not good for business. IIRC, the Cubs are on the hook for the majority of Barnhart’s salary this season to add insult to injury (could definitely be wrong here).

    Kris Bryant to IL with low back strain. He’s keeping the Rockies docs busy.
