June 10, 201510 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 11:28 AM) Timmy took a lead off walk. The hell did Anderson do recently to get going? Play a bunch of MLB: The Show and just focus on getting walks?
June 10, 201510 yr Author Just read on twitter, Anderson hurt himself rounding 2nd base and had to crawl back to the bag. Left game, but walked off on his own. https://twitter.com/JustinRocke/status/608673338483945472 Edited June 10, 201510 yr by flavum
June 10, 201510 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 11:29 AM) The hell did Anderson do recently to get going? Play a bunch of MLB: The Show and just focus on getting walks? 4 walks in his last 43 PAs! That's huge for him.

He is our one position prospect that I have full faith in his ability to be a dynamic hitter.
June 10, 201510 yr Author Some chatter that the injury was caused by field conditions at the Cubs' AA field. They did some repair work after the injury. Thanks.
June 10, 201510 yr Author What the hell happened at the Tennessee field? Almost an hour later, and they're working on a ground repair that caused Anderson's injury. No rain, by the way.
June 10, 201510 yr Birmingham Barons @BhamBarons 3m3 minutes ago Due to field conditions at Smokies Park, the Barons and Smokies are under delay. A decision whether to play will be made at 1 p.m. CDT

June 10, 201510 yr Author If they were going to skip Rodon again, I wouldn't mind if Johnson faced Pittsburgh next week. Edited June 10, 201510 yr by flavum
June 10, 201510 yr Author They had a sprinkler break overnight, that caused flooding. The game started late, but they said the field was ok to play. Then Anderson got hurt. Inexcusable to play.
June 10, 201510 yr Birmingham Barons @BhamBarons 2m2 minutes ago Today's game at Tennessee has been canceled due to wet field conditions. The game will not be made up before the All-Star Game. More to come

The game will not be made up before the All-Star Game. More to come If Anderson is out for an extended period of time. I will hate the Cubs even more. Why on earth even start the game?

June 10, 201510 yr Johnson with a monster of a start. Dude should be back on the radar at this point. Obviously our expectations should drop a little, but he should have a chance to fill that #5 very effectively once we can dump Danks on somebody.
June 10, 201510 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 12:45 PM) If they were going to skip Rodon again, I wouldn't mind if Johnson faced Pittsburgh next week. They better not skip Rodon until after the 20th.

Obviously our expectations should drop a little, but he should have a chance to fill that #5 very effectively once we can dump Danks on somebody. We won't ever be able to, FWIW. We might have been able to dump him for a worse contract like Melky Cabrera...minus that one problem.

You've really gone all-in on the "Melky = Dunn" theory. Obviously no one is going to take Danks' contact as is, but eat the vast majority of the money and someone might take him. And quite frankly, I'd be okay with that because I think Johnson & Beck could exceed his performance going forward.
June 11, 201510 yr Its only 10 games gice or take but Ricky Mota is having a solid start in the DSL. I think Alfaro and Nunez will be up with the AZL team to start their careers Edited June 11, 201510 yr by Joshua Strong

Johnson maybe, but I think expecting anything lower than a 5.25 ERA out of Beck is pushing it.
