He was trying to make French toast and got his tongue stuck in the toaster.

Well, at least we can rule out hemorrhoids.

Sore shoulder is what I heard.

 

 

Baez 1-4 with a double and no Ks.  Read his double just missed being a HR again.

It apparently one-hopped the wall in right-center... only AB I didn't see from him. Four-game hitting streak from him and only two strikeouts in that span. Consider he had 11 strikeouts in the five games before that. Maybe he's slowly picking it up.

Ace mentions problems seeing the ball during night games in his latest column - Link

 

Could be something to keep on eye on, although I am skeptical as Ace points out the majority of games last season where he crushed the ball were played at night.

 

I think it's a combination of a huge heavy expectation of not only being the club's #1 prospect, but also being up there as the #1 prospect in baseball. Plus also add in the fact I don't think he has ever played in weather where it is colder than "your love for a whore after you have cum" like artic conditions. 

 

I am starting to get worried, but hopefully seeing signs of breaking out of the slump as the weather warms up.

Yeah I suggested possible vision issues about a week ago on Twitter pointing out his day/night splits... but Parks later tweeted this:

<p class="" style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">Learned from a trusted source that Baez's eyes were both 20/15 this ST. Good news: its not his vision. Bad news: its the approach. <a class="" href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Cubs?src=hash">#Cubs</a>

Well played sir!  Lol

Another double for Baez.




Farm System - rok - 05-20-2014

And another 2B by Baez for the game.

Another one just now. 2-4 with two doubles, yes please.



Farm System - Clapp - 05-20-2014

Yeah he drilled it down the left field line. Only 2 strikeouts in these last 5 games now too. He seems to be seeing the ball much better.



Farm System - funkster - 05-20-2014

Don't want to get ahead myself, but hopefully this is a turning point.




Farm System - rok - 05-20-2014

Villanueva also 2-4. Get that average back to a respectable level so we can trade him.


Farm System - nakedman1664 - 05-21-2014

So it was the other hamstring that got Soler this time?
