They must REALLY think Miller can stick as a future starter...or are keeping Cease?

But his phrasing makes it sound like he's not actually "reporting" that firsthand. Seems more like an "if this is true" than an "I can confirm" framing.

Lots of (deserved) attention on the rookies, but props to Sosa for coming in off the bench to knock in the go ahead run. He has quietly gone 24 (!!!) PAs without a strikeout, with 10 hits and a walk during that K-less streak. Still an aggressive swinger (the RBI was on a pitch out of the zone) but cutting down the K rate would be big for him.

Yeah, definitely less than I expected given the reported bidding war for him.

Might not have a choice if this drop is fatigue related

Barons win 10-0. The staff has pitched 3 consecutive shutouts. Braden 2-4 with a walk, SB, and 2K, Antonacci 2-5.

Liked him when he was here even though the team refused to play well behind him. Would have expected the Cubs to aim a little higher though.

The only appropriate response to this offensive breakout:

Would have been nice not to give that Cubs series away, but it's hard to be mad at a split homestand against two contending teams in tight division races. Especially when win #40 came in game 161 last year.

Benny!

I wonder when the last set of 3 rookies to all homer in the same game was.

Trying to make the Phils trade for another BP arm lol

Gonzo's first AAA hit is a 107mph double down the RF line.

Casty much easier to run on thankfully

Smith and Vasil setting some high standards for future R5 guys

That's very annoying.
