Your 2010 AZL Cubs!

Submitted by Arizona Phil on

After eight weeks of Extended Spring Training and another couple of weeks of mini-camp work-outs, the AZL Cubs begin league play tonight, as they face the AZL Angels at HoHoKam Park in Mesa.  

Tennessee Smokies LHP Casey Lambert will get the start for the AZL Cubs, as he continues his rehab from 2009 Tommy John Surgery.

RHP Jesse Ginley has been moved up to Boise, and the Cubs have signed two more Non-Drafted Free-Agents (U. of Washington 2B Doug Cherry and Old Dominion 3B Jake McAloose) for their AZL club, giving the team a couple of additional college seniors to help provide some veteran leadership and mentors for the kids. (NDFA Siena U. OF Anthony Giansanti was signed ten days ago).

Here is the latest AZL Cubs roster, although it changes virtually by the hour:

Looking at this list, just think, some day some of these kids will be promoted to the big leagues and play for the Orioles.

Submitted by QuietMan on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 06:08 pm

$10 bleacher seats for some upcoming games. Oh, and they're honoring Santo for 50 years of baseball. http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=389466&src=152 To help fans celebrate with Santo, the Cubs are offering a limited allotment of $10 bleacher seats throughout the team's next homestand against Pittsburgh and Cincinnati, June 28-July 4. Fans can purchase these tickets by entering the promo code "SANTO" when purchasing bleacher tickets on Cubs.com.

Yes... they are. Again, tickets like that go on sale right before games all the time, and not just this year. They are typically tickets that the team holds for whatever reason, and they get released when the team decides they don't need them anymore.

I'm sure that's absolutely right, but they also open up seats that were player tickets and other random Cubs personnel/guests seats. I walked up to the box office a couple years ago the morning of a game and got some really great seats that had just been released, and ended up sitting directly in front of Gary Hughes (special assistant to the GM).

Per Cubs: Gibbs, LePage (13th-round), Soto (15th), Hartman (16th) and Noble (37th) sign.Cubs have signed 20 of its 50 picks from draft.

Submitted by Rob G. on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 06:40 pm

Orioles found their next pick-up, Eric Patterson DFA'd by A's. Once they add him and Reynel Pinto, I think McPhail is just missing an Angel Guzman for the complete set.

from Rotoworld, DeRosa having a second wrist surgery next week: John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that Mark DeRosa (wrist) will undergo season-ending surgery next week. In what was essentially a foregone conclusion for weeks now, DeRosa will have the tendon sheath in his left wrist fixed and undergo a second procedure to free an aggravated nerve. The 35-year-old ends the first year of a two-year, $12 million contract with a .194/.279/.258 batting line to go along with one home run and 10 RBI.

Going to bed early. You guys hang out and let me know where we are going to meet for the Ron Santo 50th anniversary as a miserable failure.

Submitted by Cubster on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 06:22 pm

Top 5th, Soriano doubled off 2nd on a sinking flyball easily caught by the LF. I hate watching dumbass baseball.

Submitted by Cubster on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 06:26 pm

Kind of tough going thru life losing the first game of every series... Legacy of the 2010 Cubs.

Submitted by Cubster on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 06:34 pm

if they don't score a run in Seattle, the next call up from Iowa just might be Ryno (or Von Joshua)

Submitted by rokfish on Tue, 06/22/2010 - 06:55 pm

At least it was a somewhat quick game, could the cubs be holding off on roster move till friday because there could be a trade.

Welcome to the Tom Ricketts newest retro idea...the College of hitting coaches

Submitted by The Joe on Wed, 06/23/2010 - 06:15 pm

I was at the game. It was boooorrrrring. Cubs fans outnumbered Mariners fans (or so I was told). Looking at the crowd, it seemed likely. Bradley got booed loudly EVERY time he came to bat. There was a nice "Let's go Cubbies/Mariners" battle that got pretty loud...Cubs won. Unfortunately, this happened seconds before Soriano got doubled up after rounding 3rd on a popup. Mariners fans got loud, then. I got drunk and cheered loudly for Aardsma when he got called in. The end.

I was amazed how excited I got when Colvin came up with two on in the 9th. It helped to be there and to be surrounded by Cubs fans. The group I was with had equal parts Cubs and Mariners fans, so it was fun for one moment. No one really cared up until then, though...except the old man in sweat pants who stood up and cheered every time the Cubs caught a popup. But I'm kind of the same as you right now. I go to the game fully expecting a loss...and even with a win, I feel bittersweet, because I feel it'll only postpone the inevitable.

    Things I've been wrong about:

    -Tauchman is fine as a 4th OF. I knew that. I just want a better LH DH option and he was really the DH for us until Seiya got hurt. I'm glad Mervis is getting a chance at it. Caissie is coming for that job for sure. But Tauchman continues to be highly useful as a 4th OF with Seiya being hurt

    -I wanted Yency to go to get guys at Iowa a chance. Guys like Palencia and Sanders or RileyT. Maybe even Hodge! But Yency has been better the last two plus weeks. He did hit 96 the other day. He was 93 in Texas to open the season.

    -Leiter has his split working enough. It just needs to stay there

    -I was surprised Jed picked Wisdom over Cooper. I wonder if this happens if Seiya wasn't hurt. Wisdom has more power. Cooper is the better hitter. Jed picked Wisdom and Wisdom had an option left as well.

    -Palencia just doesn't miss enough bats. Similar to ManRod, just two yrs younger. ManRod is killing AAA for TB right now!

    Things I got right so far:

    -Hendricks. Sorry Kyle. You got paid though!

    Jed, you missed there.

    -Smyly. If Jed could've traded him before or during ST, then he should have and saved some cash.

    -Mastro.  Not a LH DH. Pinch runner. Defensive utility. Maybe he's better than Madrigal but didn't get a legit chance to prove it.

    -Luke Little is good. He's had one bad outing. That's it. Needs to get better entering with guys on base. But he needs to stay in MLB.

    -Oh yeah....Morel is doing fine at 3B! He'll get better as well!!

    bellinger "right rib contusion"

  • Childersb3 (view)

    South Bend just lost the lead in the bottom of the 9th on the weirdest scenario, ever.

    It's absolutely pouring rain....men on 1st and 2nd, 1out....JPatterson asks for a new ball, but no time out was called....he throws the old ball toward the dugout (not sure if it rolled out of play).....the ump declares the runners get two bases each so one run scores. Then a single up the middle ties the game.

    The rain was coming down in buckets at this point.

    Just weird

  • crunch (view)

    ...and bellinger is gone in the 7th because of that 2nd blown chance and the wall he bounced off of...

    hopefully his rib cage/shoulder feels better tomorrow, we just got happ back.

  • Childersb3 (view)

    Phil,

    Any thoughts on Y. Rojas' stuff and Y. Melendez's game (I believe I've asked about him before, sorry)?

  • crunch (view)

    wow, things are moving fast.  hopefully it continues.

  • crunch (view)

    morel with 4 clean plays in 4 innings...showed off his 100000000mph arm a couple times.

    cody bellinger not having a good 4th, though...5 run leads are handy when your CF is making your pitcher have a 5-out inning.  2nd blown chance was ruled a hit even though it went in/out of his glove...1st was lost in the lights, also ruled a hit.

  • crunch (view)

    welcome back happ!  double off the wall 1st PA back.

  • crunch (view)

    oh yeah, totally, i was just chiming about why i fan like i fan.

    i would like nothing more than hendricks to keep on hendricks'ing.  guys with his stuff can throw for a long, long time as long as it works.

    he velocity is actually up a minor amount this year.  it's really "damn" when a guy like him not only has gas in the tank, but it's looking like it was years ago.  he added a curve a few years ago and it helped a little bit, but he's throwing it less and less while the fb/change combo are less effective.

    CRUNCH—There is no one person in this community I’m talking about.  My remarks were not directed at you or anyone, but at a tone I’ve noticed lately. 

    You have a great, dry sense of humor and there is thought behind your comments.   You and I don’t always agree but I always understand your position.  

    Lastly, and I’ll be quiet, I agree with you on Hendricks.  We can dislike the recent performance but still love the guy.  Lots of questions about his future.
