Do you know what Rutherford's status is? Not in the lineup again, and not listed with the players on the bench.

Dedelow with a well deserved promotion. Interested to see how he does.

Seems like bad defense for WSalem has hurt Dunning. Have a feeling Blake is on DL

Yikes, rough outing from dunning. Hope fully just one of those days.

Got even uglier, a few should be unearned

Jimenez is the s***

Eloy continues to absolutely punish pitchers.

 

Stephens looking good.

Eloy 3-3

Collins also 1-2 with a walk

Gonzalez with another 2 hits, he's been on fire lately.

Jesus christ man Eloy is something else.

One of the things I've loved to rub in the faces of cub fans is the Karchner for Garland trade. Despite Q being a good pitcher, I think this trade might top that.

That Bham team suddenly became fun to watch.

It's too bad the Sox aren't contending because he'd probably be September call up.

Didn't Miguel Cabrera pull off something similar the year he was called up to crush the hopes and dreams of cub fans?

I dont think there are any minor leaguers I would trade for Jimenez.

Acuna is only one I would consider

As great as Acuna is, I'll take Jimenez raw power potential (which is basically unlimited) before Acuna's speed/defensive versatility. I'm also a little more wary of Acuna's swing and miss, whereas Jimenez contact ability is off the charts for a guy with his frame. But yea, they are 1-2 in my mind. The only player that rivals them in raw talent is Kopech.
