6/13: Around the Cubs Minor League System
A look at the minor league system on Wednesday June 13.
Peoria scored early and often, scoring six runs in the first four innings. That would prove to be plenty for starter Jose Rosario as the Chiefs won 7-1. The offense pounded out 12 hits, including two-hit games by Zeke DeVoss, Dustin Geiger, Javier Baez, and Yasiel Balaguert. Baez and Geiger each hit a homer and each added two RBI’s. DeVoss, Balaguert, and Oliver Zapata also had RBI’s on the day. Not to be overlooked was the great pitching performance by Rosario who gave up one run on three hits in 6.1 innings of work. Hunter Cervenka through another scoreless inning while striking out two. He has not allowed a hit in 10.1 innings or a base runner in 8.2, his ERA is now down to 0.63.
****
Daytona was trailing 3-1 in the the third when the game was suspended due to weather. The game will pick up in the fourth inning tomorrow and will then play a seven inning game after the conclusion of the first game.
****
Tennessee fell behind early, but came back to score six straight to win 6-3. Dae-Eun Rhee gave up three early runs, but stayed around long enough to get his fourth win of the season. Justin Bour had two hits including his 16th double and he also drove his 50th run of the season. Junior Lake added two hits as well including a triple. James Adduci hit his fifth homer of the season and also had two RBI’s on the day. Jae-Hoon Ha, Wellington Castillo, and Michael Burgess all contributed with RBI’s as well. Frank Batista closed the game out pitching two scoreless innings, and notching his ninth save of the season.
****
Not much excitement at Iowa today as the Cubs lost 5-2. Not only did Iowa lose, but there was no Anthony Rizzo as he is day-to-day with a right knee contusion and there was no Brett Jackson in the lineup as well. Rodrigo Lopez pitched six innings allowing three runs on eight hits. Continuing his rehab Geovany Soto caught some today and also hit a double. Luis Valbuena had two hits including a double and an RBI. Blake Lalli had the only other RBI on the day.

6-7: Around the Minor League System
Minor League recap for June 7.
Peoria’s pitching was magnificent once again as the Chiefs shutout Cedar Rapids on Thursday. Michael Jensen got his sixth win of the season as he only gave up one hit and struck out seven in five innings. Not to be outdone Felix Pena struck out five in two innings and Hunter Cervenka added two strikeouts in his two innings as he recorded his first save of the season. Cervenka’s ERA now stands at 0.73. Taiwan Easterling and Anthony Giansanti each had an RBI, which would prove to be all the Chiefs would need.
****
Daytona was Postponed

Tennessee got the scoring started early, but Mississippi would score the next seven taking a commanding 7-1 through the top of five. After Tennessee got a run back in the fifth, they would score four in the sixth with RBI’s from Nate Samson, Jae-Hoon Ha, Junior Lake, and Justin Bour. After the Smokies tied the game in the eighth, Logan Watkins won the game with a walkoff single in the ninth to give Tennessee an 8-7 win. The top of the order did a great job as Logan Watkins led off and had two hits, two walk, an RBI, and three runs scored. Jae-Hoon Ha hit second and had three hits, an RBI, and two runs scored. The number three hitter Junior Lake went 3-for-3 and had two RBI’s. Cleanup hitter Justin Bour had two hits and three RBI’s as well. Matthew Cerda also contributed three hits on the evening. Dae-Eun Rhee struggled in his five innings of work, but the bullpen shut the Braves out for the last four innings and Alberto Cabrera got his second win of the year. A great comback for the Smokies.
****
Iowa scored two runs in the eighth to get the win 5-4 on Thursday night. After Nashville opened the scoring, Iowa came right back in the bottom of the second to tie the game on an RBI single by Dave Sappelt. The Cubs would score two more in the third on an Anthony Rizzo groundout followed by an RBI double by Josh Vitters. Nashville would get the next three runs off of Chris Volstad who pitched seven innings giving up four runs, three of which were earned. Going into the bottom of the eighth Iowa trailed 4-3 until Ty Wright came up and connected on a two-run homer, his fourth of the year to give the Cubs the lead. Scott Maine threw a scoreless ninth recording his fourth save of the season. Jeff Beliveau got the win.

Another good night for the Cubs system, this time two come from behind wins.

6/2: Around the Cubs Minor League System
Javier Baez hit his first home run of his proessional career on Saturday night helping the Chiefs destroy Kane County 15-3. Baez ended the game going 3-for-5 with three RBI’s and two runs scored. Yasiel Balaguert and Taiwan Easterling also delivered three RBIS’s and Anthony Giansanti had two. Also contributing offensively was Wes Darvill who went 4-for-6 with an RBI and two runs scored. One of the more unusual stats came from Pin-Chieh Chen who went 1-for-1 with five walks and four runs scored.As good as the bats were on Saturday, starting pitcher Jose Rosario was just as good. He pitched seven scoreless innings giving up three hits and striking out ten. He improved his record to 4-5. The game got interesting late when up 13-0 Baez swung at a 3-0 pitch. Kane County’s manager visited the mound and Baez got hit in the ribs on the next pitch. Things stayed calm and Baez will learn from the experience.
****
After scoring 16 on Friday night, Daytona answered by scoring 10 more Saturday beating Fort Myers 10-5. Everyone in the lineup had at least one hit as Daytona pounded out 16 hits. John Andreoli scored three time and he Rubi Silva both had three hits for the Cubs. Arismendy Alcantara and Nelson Perez added two hits a piece with each driving in three runs. The Cubs used four pitchers to take care of the win. Ryan Searle eventually got his second win of the year as he went three strong innings in relief only giving up two hits and striking out three. The Cubs bats look stay hot as we move into Sunday.
****
Montgomery outlasts Tennessee winning 4-3 in 10 innings. The Smokies got the scoring started in the second inning and scored another in the fifth to take a 3-0 lead. Montgomery would put up a three spot starter Dae-Eun Rhee in the sixth and the score would stay tied until the bottom of the tenth when the Biscuits walked off with a win. Jae-Hoon Ha had three hits and a run scored on the day. RBI’s came from Justin Bour, Nate Samson, and Elliot Soto. Junior Lake had rough day as he went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts. It is always tough to lose games when you are up by three or more runs late in the game, we will see how Tennessee responds.
****
Iowa scored enough to win most nights, but giving up seven runs in the seventh proved to be too much. It looked good for Iowa early as they scored the first five runs of the game. Oklahoma City would get right back in the game when they scored four in the third. Iowa would score the next three runs of the game, however the bullpen could not hold the lead giving up seven in the seventh. Offensively there were a lot of good things as Brett Jackson stayed red hot going 3-for-5 with two doubles and a triple. Anthony Rizzo was back on Saturday, he went 2-for-4 with a double. Former first rounder Josh Vitters continues to swing a good bat as he had two hits including his ninth home run of the year. Luis Valbuena, Ty Wright, and Blake Lalli all had multi-hit games. Unfortunately for Cubs this game was pitched by are all designated team, as Rodrigo Lopez, Ryan Rowland-Smith, and Mike MacDougal were are all terrible. Hopefully Iowa can respond tomorrow with a victory.

5/28: Around the Cubs Minor League System
Here is a recap of the Cubs minor league system from 5/28/12, enjoy.
Daytona was off
Jose Rosario was outstanding Monday, unfortunately the Chiefs offense couldn’t provide any offense for him as the Chiefs fell 3-1 to Wisconsin. Rosario was lights out going seven strong innings allowing one run on three hits, while walking no one and striking out seven. 2011 first round pick Javy Baez made his Peoria debut and he didn’t disappoint. Baez was 2-for-4 in his first Peoria game, both hits were singles. Zeke DeVoss was 1-for-4 on the day with a double, and he stole his 12th bag of the season.
****
The Smokies fell behind early, and by a lot as Huntsville built up a 7-1 lead by the third inning which was too much for Tennessee as they fell 8-4. Dae-Eun Rhee was knocked around quite a bit, he only lasted two and one-third giving up seven runs, all earned, on nine hits, while walking two. Rhee’s record falls to 3-2 on the season while his ERA sky-rockets to 5.50. Rebel Ridling continued his power surge as he went 1-for-4 with his 6th home run of the season. Luis Flores was 1-for-2 at the plate with two walks and two RBI’s.
****
Brooks Raley rebounded from his last outing to pitch very well to earn his first AAA win and extend the I-Cubs winning streak to four. Raley went five innings only giving up two runs on six hits while walking two and striking out two. The I-Cubs offense didn’t miss a beat with Rizzo sidelined. They pounded out 15 hits and 8 runs en route to the 8-2 victory. Five different Cubs had multi-hit games. Josh Vitters was 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI’s. Brett Jackson was also 2-for-5 at the plate with his 7th triple of the season. Dave Sappelt continues his resurgence at the plate going 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI.

5/21: Around the Cubs Minor League System
Here is a recap of the Cubs minor league system from 5/21/12, enjoy.
Crazy finish sees Peoria’s rally fall just short as they lost to Cedar Rapids 5-4 last night. Tied at two for most of the game Cedar Rapids plated three runs in the bottom of the 8th to lead 5-2. Peoria fought back with two runs in the top of the ninth but couldn’t come all the way back. Michael Jensen pitched well enough for the win but finished his night with a no decision after 5 and 1/3rd innings of work. Peoria couldn’t string any hits together, Paul Hoilman finished the night 2-for-5 and Oliver Zapata was 1-for-1 with three walks and two runs scored.
***
Matt Loosen was really good again for Daytona as he went 6 and 2/3rds while only allowing one run on two hits. Loosen was in line for the loss but the D-Cubs pushed a run across in the 7th to tie it. Trailing 3-1 into the bottom of the ninth the D-Cubs came all the way back and walked off to win 4-3. Matt Szczur had a big hand in the win going 2-for-4 again as his average is now up to .265. Arismendy Alcantara, Chad Noble, and John Andreoli all had two hits in the victory.
***
For seven innings it looked like the Smokies were on their way to another win, but the bullpen couldn’t hold it as they surrendered five runs in the 8th en route to an 8-5 loss. Dae-Eun Rhee was in line for the win after going six strong innings, giving up three runs on eight hits. Junior Lake was 2-for-4 at the plate with a walk and a run scored, he is now hitting .283 on the season. Rebel Ridling seems to be heating up as he went deep again for his fourth home run on the season, third in his last two games.
***
Jay Jackson didn’t have it last night as he only lasted three innings while giving up six runs on nine hits on his way to his fourth loss of the season as Iowa fell 8-2 to Tacoma. Alfredo Amezaga was 2-for-3 at the plate with two walks, a double, and two runs scored. Blake DeWitt and Juan Apodaca each had two hits in the loss. The I-Cubs walked a total of 10 times, but only scored two times, inopportune to say the least.

5/15: Around the Cubs Minor League System
Here is the recap of the Cubs minor league system from 5/15/12, enjoy.
Tremendous effort from Gerardo Concepcion this afternoon for Peoria. Concepcion went six strong innings to earn his first pro victory in a 2-0 win over Burlington. Break up the Chiefs, they have now won 5 straight games to turn their season around. Zeke DeVoss put on a show on the base paths today. DeVoss went 2-for-2 with two walks, and two runs scored, oh, he also had four stolen bases, not a bad day.
***
Another rain out, totally stupid.
***
For the second straight day the Tennessee Smokies pounded the ball all over the place en route to a win over the Jackson Generals. Today’s effort included 12 hits and 10 runs as that was just enough for a 10-8 victory. Junior Lake is on a tear since returning from the DL, he went 3-for-5 today with a double, a run, and three RBI’s. Justin Bour joined the fun going 2-for-4 with a double, home run and two RBI’s. Dae-Eun Rhee didn’t have his best stuff, but he didn’t get any help from his defense. Rhee only lasted four innings, allowing six runs, only two earned however, good enough for a no decision.
***
Anthony Rizzo is making it very hard for the powers that be to ignore him. Rizzo went 3-for-4 today with his 13th home run of the season, he added a triple for good measure. He also had two more RBI’s which bring his season total to 37. Randy Wells continued his career meltdown giving up seven runs, all earned in five innings of work to earn his second loss of the season. Mike MacDougal, who was just signed by the Cubs today, showcased his talents in 2/3rds of an inning by walking four guys and allowing two runs in mop up duty of a 9-4 loss.

5/10: Around the Cubs Minor League System
Here is your nightly recap for the Cubs minor league system, enjoy.
After falling behind 4-0 early, Peoria staged a comeback that ended up falling just short in a 6-5 loss to Beloit. Rafael Lopez, and Marco Hernandez each had two hits in the losing effort for Peoria. Gerardo Concepcion had probably his best start as a professional on Thursday. Concepcion still struggled in the first inning, but settled down making it through four innings to earn a no decision.
***
An early hole was too much for Daytona to climb out of as they fell to the Stone Crabs 8-3. The D-Cubs pounded out 9 hits, but were only able to tally runs in the 2nd and 8th innings respectively. Matt Szczur was 1-for-3 at the plate as he continues his surge with his average now sitting at .250. Frank Del Valle started for the D-Cubs and took the loss giving up five runs in five innings, he’s now 2-1 on the season.
***
Dae-Eun Rhee was outstanding Thursday Night for the Smokies, going 7 and 2/3rd’s of an inning while only giving up one earned, which was unearned. Rhee only allowed four hits, and walked only one guy en route to his 3rd win of the season. Nate Samson had the big hit for the Smokies with a two run double in the second inning which was all the Smokies needed in a 4-1 win over Birmingham.
***
One of the few nights that Anthony Rizzo didn’t run the I-Cubs offense, but that was alright as the rest of the team really picked up the slack in a 10-1 win against Fresno. Luis Valbuena, Josh Vitters, and Dave Sappelt all had big days at the plate. Vitters was 3-for-4 with a double and two RBI’s as he tries to get back on track after slumping a bit. Lost in an offensive firestorm was the solid start of Randy Wells. Wells was solid, going six innings and allowing only one run for his second win of the season.

No, that’s not a misprint, Quad Cities hung 20 runs and 23 hits on the Peoria Chiefs Saturday Night. Gerardo Concepcion continued his run of god awful first innings as he gave up seven runs in the first, however only two were earned but he was still done after one inning of work. Zeke DeVoss, Taiwan Easterling, and Ryan Cuneo all had two hits in the losing effort. Cuneo was also the pitching MVP of the evening going one scoreless inning.

***
Randy Wells was pitching in a new location but had much of the same results as he did in the big leagues on Saturday Night. Wells walked two guys over 5 and 1/3rds of an inning, while allowing three runs on seven hits to take the loss. The I-Cubs couldn’t get much going at the plate as they only managed three runs on six hits in the 7-3 defeat.
