Dave Sappelt went 0-4.
Matt Szczur went 1-4 with a double and has raised his average in AA to .230. Nick Struck allowed 1 run over 6 IP while striking out 6.
Everybody sucked balls.
Frank Del Valle struck out 4 in 6 scoreless innings. Nobody on offense scored.
Jefferey Antigua struck out 4 in 3.1 IP. Its been a really weird year for Antigua. He had almost a strikeout per IP last year in Daytona and started this season in AA. He posted decent numbers there as well striking out 40 in 40 and then for some reason was sent all the way back down to Peoria. I blame Obama. Bijan Radenmacher was 1-3 with a RBI and BB.
Albert Almora celebrated his promotion with a HR and another hit. With Almora in the fold the Boise lineup is about as stacked as I have ever seen a Cubs affiliate. Rock Shoulders was 1-4 and hit a monster shot for his 8th HR of the year. KG was saying last night that there was no no no no no way Amaya gets top 100 consideration and I just don't see why not. There aren't that many 19 year old middle infielders with an OPS of .900 out there but whatever he's the "expert".
Shawon Dunston was 1-3 with a walk. That's about it.
Cool title bro.
HTML and title fixed
i pasted that shit in there per instructions. I accept no blame for this
@ dylanj:
I couldn’t even do that right.
@ dylanj:
New instructions: write the post the same as you always do. When you’re done, click on the HTML tab (two tabs, Visual, HTML) and copy and paste the code I sent at the top of everything you’ve written. Or you can ignore it and I’ll add it.

That gets my vote for next year’s Cubs slogan
@ mb21:
I always do that on my blog (add the html to the visual editor). Then feel stupid.
WaLi, I just updated the iPad keyboard thread on the forum with something you may be interested in: http://www.obstructedview.net/forum.html?mingleforumaction=viewtopic&t=109.0#postid-1946
I guess I shouldn’t be so hard on Dylan since I added the fixed code to the WYSIWYG panel instead of the HTML one at first while fixing it (dying laughing)
@ Berselius:
Yeah, you both Cubbed it.
So Phil Rogers isn’t a big Crane Kenney fan

@ Berselius:
I thought Josh put it best in the last thread:
Crane Kenney’s impact on the Cubs baseball team isn’t too much greater than the impact any of us have had.
I want to punch Rosenbloom in the face real hard.
“All Epstein does is spend Ricketts money”. Seriously? Last time I checked the payroll was at about 15 million (I’m exaggerating).

I think it’s funny these guys thought the Cubs would be winning baseball games by the end of their first year. (dying laughing)
I assume Steve Rosenbloom is the cause for not having comments sections on the Trib’s articles.
new shit
