Dewees Double Triple Leads Angels/Cubs over Rangers at Riverview

Submitted by Arizona Phil on Mon, 10/03/2016 - 8:16pm

Donnie Dewees smacked two triples, scored a run, and drove-in another, Yeiler Peguero laced an RBI triple (back-to-back RBI triples with Dewees in a three-run 3rd) and a single, scored a run, and knocked-in a run, Alberto Mineo doubled twice and scored a run, Ian Rice drilled a two-run single, walked, and scored a run, Jason Vosler doubled, walked, and scored a run, Eddy Julio Martinez hammered an RBI double, SP Garrett Richards (on LAA MLB 60-day DL since May with a torn elbow UCL) tossed 2-1/3 innings of perfect baseball, and the bullpen threw four innings of no-hit shutout ball to close the game out, leading the Angels/Cubs co-op team to an 8-4 victory over the Rangers in AZ Advanced Instructional League game action Monday afternoon on Field #1 at the Riverview Baseball Complex in Mesa, AZ.

Yeyson Yrizarri smashed a two-run double to highlight a four-run 5th inning rally and Melvin Novoa and ex-Cub Frandy de la Rosa each singled twice, walked, and scored a run for the Rangers in a losing cause.

@TheCCO Joe Maddon said @670TheScore 11 pitchers, 14 position players more likely right now for NLDS roster due to the days off in a 5-game series

Likely to announce rotation and roster this afternoon.

Glad he kept this under wraps for so long...really pulled this out of nowhere

Maddon announces #Cubs rotation for NLDS: Lester, Hendricks, Arrieta, Lackey.

Lester??

Submitted by John Beasley  on Tue, 10/04/2016 - 6:57pm  
I barely care for the NLDS, but based on recent performance, I'll please take Lackey third and Arrieta fourth for the NLCS and WS. I know that's probably controversial, but like it or not, Lackey's just throwing better since the All-Star break. Plus if it's worth anything, he's a known Game 7 commodity, but to be clear I have no doubt about Arrieta in the nerves department.

this TBS feed needs more bigass bulky graphics. i can almost see the game and that's annoying.

this game is a good postseason warmup. aside from the "thrown beer" incident earlier in the game, and somewhat because of it for some people, the fans are pumping as much life into this game as the players.

tie game, leadoff double bottom 9...electric. ...and it leads to nothing. free playoff baseball!

I can't remember ever seeing beer sold in a can in a US sports arena. Just seems like a really bad idea to give dangerous projectiles to drunk fans.

Wrigley sells soda in plastic bottles. Not beer, of course, but certainly could do damage if someone wanted to toss it.

Flipping between AL Wild Card game and Blackhawks vs Red Wings. 2 on with nobody out in bottom of the 9th, I'm surprised that Britton isn't in the game, even though it's a non-save situation. Only 1 ER since May with your season on the line. I'm surprised. Everybody will be questioning Showalter for not bringing Britton into the game if the Jays walk off. Luckily O'Day got out of the inning, so the Orioles avoid criticism for not bringing Britton in. If it were the Cubs, Chapman should absolutely comes in for that situation.

    not sure, but i think it's around 130-135m right now even with bryant/baez/contreras still on board...including the 3m to set darvish free and other random $$ expenses on the roster.

    tack on another 3-4m for happ when that gets settled....plus other odds/ends that have a chance to make the roster (s.miller, a.morgan, j.holder, etc) and other pre-arbitration guys...

    cubs still need someone to back up contreras (if he sticks around, which i wouldn't be surprised to see him stick around)...not sure if taylor gushue is gonna be that guy and m.amaya is too young.

    Seriously, what's the 2021 payroll number? Currently at approximately $165M and after they trade Bryant, Baez, & Contreras  - $130M. Is that it, $135-140M.

    Q to the angels...supposedly 1/8m

    pete ricketts (the governor of Nebraska ricketts) is a key part of an anti-gambling Nebraska group called "Gambling With The Good Life" that actively lobbied their open legislature...including a speech by pete...to keep gambling illegal in Nebraska.

    he last spoke for the group to the state government in-session 3 months ago.

    ...it's also worth mentioning all of this is separate from the Draft Kings/Wrigley Field deal that flew under the radar toward the end of the season that will put a sportsbook directly in wrigley field, itself.

    that's where i'd put my money.  he gave up an alarming amount of HR last season, giving pause.  still, he's shown he's better than a 5 slot guy...

    God knows, the pitching staff needs more Garlick but the offense needs to ward off those strikeout demons.

    None are official. The Cubs haven't officially turned in paperwork on anyone.
