I'm pretty sure they're going to try to trade him closer to the deadline.

He is certainly reemerging as a prospect. Improving power and defense at 3B certainly makes Vitters a lot more intriguing.

Espicially while Cubs need a 3B. He wont have long to prove himself though in MLB with Baez breathing down his back. Prolly just 2-3 yrs away for Baez

Weird decision in Iowa. Jay Jackson pinch hit to lead off the sixth. He was struck out.

Brett Jackson follows up with a strikeout. He swung and miss on a 1-2 pitch.

Didn't see anyone mention this before but Rizzo is back in the Iowa lineup tonight. Rizzo had a double earlier, and had a hard hit ball that the 2B couldn't handle for a single. 2 for 3 on the night with a run scored.

Nice of the Baby Astros to throw batting practice.

RT @IowaCubs Josh Vitters stays hot with RBI double. Iowa leads 7-4, 2 on, no outs T-7.


Stay hot

RT @peoriachiefs Baez swung 3 & 0 Mgr walked to mound for a visit.Next pitch drills Baez.Pitcher ejected.Hope Manager too.Baez calmly to 1s.

Reason he got drilled was cause game was 13-0

I'm wondering if he did any posing on the homerun or if it just because he was torching them.

Passed ball by Lalli allows the go ahead run to score for Oklahoma City. Mike McDougal, folk hero, is on the mound now.
