So, according to BP, the Iowa Cubs have 3 of the top 18 prospects in their infield. I bet that doesn't happen very often.

Whoa, Alcantara at 18?  (I'm guessing, I am too cheap broke to get these sort of subscriptions)

My guess would be Russell, Baez & Bryant.

[willis]

Yep, they vaulted Alcantara up to 18. Pretty awesome jump for him and he deserves it. He's having himsellf a damn fine season.

He's 24.

 

Man I love me some Ace, but the #swoon/squeal/sparkle stuff has gotta go.

Yep. I know he's joking and that's his shtick, buts it's a little uncomfortable.

Thank God I wasn't the only one.  Although, less uncomfortable and more...well...

 

Ace, I love your work, but it seems like you are trying a bit too hard with all the nicknames.  I really noticed it with Schwarber and the "Hulk" references and now the Sparkle for Bryant has gone too far.

 

Just take it easy, Ace.  Why don't you stop nicknaming for a while?  Maybe sit the next couple of plays out.

Ha exactly what I was thinking.

 

 

I'm at work and can't really surf...who does BP have at 1/2...Buxton and Correa or Buxton and Taveras?

[Andy]

Buxton and Correa.

[funkster]

Two HRs for Almora.

Almora just pulled after the 5th inning... Hopefully just to give him a rest.
