"As the New York Mets explore offensive upgrades, they have engaged with the Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs and others about first baseman Dom Smith, according to major-league sources."

no.  hell no.  etc.

nice...right back into the thick of things.

wishing him a ton of luck.  beyond being a top prospect he's a very high end clubhouse presence (unless that's changed) and that kind of thing helps more than just himself.

erich uelmen debut.

he's got a zillion run lead to work with.  good luck.

not remarkable, but stuff looked good for uelmen.

nice late-sinking action on his fastball that compliments his slider well...

1ip 1h 1bb 1k, 1r/er (gave up a monster solo HR)

-edit - Sunday game on Peacock app, dunno if free or you need a paid account (was behind paywall earlier in season)

fwiw, the weekend games are all free on mlb.tv right now.

web access through a browser and apps on various devices.

contreras is pretty much asking for the ball after every hit.

he knows his time is limited.

at least he's enjoyed being a cub to the point that his last hit for the team is worth having a keepsake for him.

Something to keep in mind about the upcoming MLB trade deadline is that while normally a player must remain on Optional Assignment for a minimum of 10 days (position players) or 15 days (pitchers & two-way players) before he can be recalled unless he is replacing a player who is placed on an MLB inactive list (IL, Bereavement, Paternity, etc), a player can also be recalled without having to spend the minimum number of days on Optional Assignment if he is replacing a player who is traded or claimed off waivers, as long as the player being replaced was not Designated for Assignment prior to being traded or claimed off waivers.

    25 games played with a -85 run differential.  insane.

    White Sox DFA Bailey Horn. I'm thinking the Cubs would love to get him back although they probably won't have a decent chance of claiming him without another swap.

    WSox also call up former Cub Rafael Ortega (and additionally Tommy Pham). They are hurting and having a gawd awful April.

    White Sox DFA'd Bailey Horn.

    He wasn't producing good results in Charlotte (AAA).

    But Jed might bring him back with that open 40man spot. Then try the "sneak him thru waivers" gambit.

    Oh my, now I will have nightmares of me sitting in the bowels of the Wrigley security detention cell.

    One more thing...

    One of the reasons I come to this site...

     ...in addition to Arizona Phil, who is, as we all know, a treasure trove of well-written fresh information, honest evaluation, and sneaky-subtle humor regarding the entire Cub organization...

    ... is CubbyBlue and Tim's fantastic and timely visual takes on the Cubs (to be fair, he does have a much broader Chicago-flavored brush well beyond the Cubs).  Thanks for so many memorable images.  I am fortunate to own (one of my prize possessions) a print that I framed (55/200) of "The Last Out" with KB's shit-eating grin as he fields the series winning out of the 2016 WS.

    Tim, will you visit me if I do the text security thingy and description: Tim S? Or will I find myself in a Cub detention cell.

    i.e. "or send a text message to 773-839-**** with the keyword "Friendly" and include your seat location and a description of your issue.

    Incredible moment. Huge part of the fun of working there is when something magic like that happens, and you get to interact with baseball fans. 

  • TarzanJoeWallis (view)

    That bear hug was indeed awesome. Word is that Dansby has become an outstanding clubhouse leader and that moment really demonstrated it. That reaction was one of a proud coach/mentor who’s student just excelled. I’m not even sure who was more overjoyed, Dansby or PCA. A veteran expressing that kind of unabashed support and enthusiasm for a struggling rookie is beyond fantastic to see.

    BAHAHA! I've actually not seen a single fight, but can't wait to see 70 degrees for sure!

  • crunch (view)

    next time i roll up into wrigley i'll try to start a fist fight and maybe we'll meet.

    be prepared.  i'm gonna make you earn your money.

    seriously, though...that's a cool as hell "retirement" assignment.  i imagine it will be better with warmer nights.
