Quote:This was actually the first I've heard of him in awhile, and it just so happens to be bad news. But I must admit, I haven't been following the minor leauge system closely this year compared to previous seasons. 

Quote:Some promotions as well.


* Jake Hannemann goes from Myrtle Beach to Tennessee. Hannemann has been on a tear of late raising his average to .328 to go along with his team leading 7 stolen bases.


* Trey Martin goes from South Bend to Myrtle Beach. A defensive stalwart, Martin rejoins most of his former Kane County teammates and will fit right in in center.

Quote:Fuck a trade, if he figures things out he stays.

Quote:AA

Quote:Javy Baez played in the game on Field #1, batting eight times (once in each inning), and playing second-base for four innings before moving to shortstop for three innings. He went 1-7 for the day... #1) roped a line drive single to left on a 1-0 pitch in the top of the first inning before scoring the Cubs first run of the day on a sacrifice fly; #2) grounded out sharply 5-3 on an 0-1 pitch in the top of the second inning; #3) sruck out swinging on a 1-2 breaking ball in the third; #4) reached base after being hit by a pitch (upper left arm) on an 0-1 count and then scored a run in the fourth; #5) struck out swinging on a 2-2 breaking ball in the fifth; #6) lined out to right on a 1-1 pitch in the top of the sixth; #7) reached base on a throwing error by the Giants shortstop on a 2-2 pitch in the seventh, and #8) struck out looking on a 2-2 breaking ball in the top of the eighth. He handled four chances in the field flawlessly.
