Devers Delivers But Mena is The Man at Fitch Park
Ismael Mena rifled a two-run triple into the RF Corner in the 2nd inning and then scored on an error (relay overthrow at 3rd base), drilled a single, stole a base, and scored a run in the 5th (Jefferson Rojas RBI single), and hammered a line-drive bases-loaded bases-clearing triple off the CF Batter's Eye in the 6th for a grand total of five RBI and two runs scored, Christopher Paciolla doubled, singled, stole a base, and scored two runs, and SP Luis Devers (on the AA Tennessee 7-day IL - right shoulder inflammation) saw his first game action of 2023 and hurled two innings of shutout ball,

feeling good about that 2-6...and i guess technically i should expect 4-5 hits/walks from the 7/8/9/1 slot, hopefully coming at a good time for that 2-6.
now i'm gonna sit back and wait for 0 hits and 10 Ks from the 2-6 stranding masterboney on base 3-4 times while rios and mervis hit a few homers...and m.fulmer comes in to blow the lead

masterboney leading off and playing 3rd...the 7/8/9/1 hitters (rios/mervis/barnhart/masterb) are hitting about .157 avg and .270 ob%...the leadoff hitter sporting .149/.273 avg/ob%

I agree, he has value for someone, and is worth giving an opportunity, just not with us in the long-term.......

dude can put the ball in play and not strike out. along with being able to play 2nd/3rd he could be a starter on some teams and good bench options on many teams. his value isn't as high as when the cubs got him, but showing he can play 3rd rather well helps offset that a little bit.

Thanks Phil!
Saw that you mentioned Lizardo Ruiz is in the catcher conversion program, and he seems to be hitting pretty well; does he have the potential to be a legitimate prospect?

I wonder if Madrigal has any trade value, he's not a bad player, just a very high floor / low ceiling player (that's not a short joke); and I don't see him having ANY future in the Cubs organization that would benefit him or the club.......
