"Jon Lester (shoulder, lat) will throw a simulated game Monday. Lester tossed a successful 42-pitch bullpen session Friday, clearing the way for him to face hitters Monday." also, a.russell says he's feeling good.

dammit Q... the phillies...this is the phillies.

Heyo, everybody. (That's in lieu of anyone being in Parachat. Which I can't complain about since I haven't been there since October.)

AZ PHIL- I know this is thinking towards next spring but do you think that Dillon Maples could actually be the Cubs closer next year? If you look at it, it might not be impossible: -Justin Wilson- Was expected to be handed it, has been brutal since coming to Cubs -Wade Davis- Leaves for greener pastures -Hector Rondon- Traded/non-tendered. They not going to want to pay $6mil for a RHP who gives up more HR than BP machines -Carl Edwards Jr.- Ace RP first half, second half headed towards Rick Ankiel territory -Dillon Maples- His stock hasn't been higher since the day he got drafted and with a good spring, finally earn the $2.5mil sign bonus

CUBBIES-4-EVER::I think it's very possible that Dillon Maples could be in the 2018 Cubs Opening Day bullpen, but I doubt very much that he would begin the season as the closer. He could become the closer during the course of the season, however, but he would have to work his way into that role. 

In Boston for a meeting and to help my son get his stuff out of storage for his junior year of college. We went to Fenway tonight -- the Red Sox were brutally bad -- 5 errors, and phenom Benintendi made two of the worst throws I have ever seen from short LF. We left when it got to 13-3. If the Cubs face the Sox in the WS -- run on anything hit to LF. For those who worry about the commercialization of Wrigley...it could be worse -- I counted 30 signs/banners between the foul poles on almost every inch of the outfield walls and the Monstah. It looks like a NASCAR race. However, it is still great place to see a game, it was a beautiful night and Fenway Franks are really tasty. With Sale getting clobbered yesterday, and tonight's terrible showing by Porcello and the whole team, Sox fans are a bit on edge.

    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.
