Day Into Night: Cubs 4, Indians 5; and Cubs vs. White Sox at Las Vegas, Wednesday 3/4, 9:05 CT

by Al on Mar 4, 2009 4:59 PM CST in Recap/Game Thread Comment 567 comments

A lot of scrubs played in today's 5-4 Cubs loss to the Indians. Only Derrek Lee and Milton Bradley, among regular players (I'm not counting Joey Gathright and Aaron Miles as starters, although they probably got credit for being so, to give the Cubs the four "regulars" they usually are required to bring to road games), got the start today. Both went 1-for-3 before departing, Gathright leaving for a pinch-runner -- which probably is the first time that's ever happened to the speedy Gathright in any pro game, spring training or no. It was 77 degrees at game time, yet another above-normal temperature day. There seemed to be a fair number of Cubs fans in the smallish crowd of 5,352, judging from the applause I heard over the WGN radio broadcast when the Cubs did something good.

The biggest blows today were struck by Brad Snyder, a two-run single in the first inning, and a single and a triple by Nate Spears, who, surprisingly, participated in the Arizona Fall League (usually a showcase for prospects) and then was left unprotected in the Rule 5 draft. He wasn't invited to spring training, but got into this game because of all the extra players needed. Spears is a Mike Fontenot type who might have a shot at being a utility player in the majors; Snyder isn't really a prospect, but will probably be a starting OF at Iowa this year and might provide some injury protection.

Chad Gaudin had a shaky first inning and then settled down. Good news: he didn't walk anyone, and the rest of the game was pitched by guys who won't be on the major league roster. So, the 5-4 loss, which resulted from hits and walks given up by Justin Berg, doesn't mean all that much.

Bob Brenly's son Michael, who was drafted last year in one of the later rounds, was brought over to Goodyear with some of the other minor leaguers, but didn't get into the game. So, I thought I'd post this cubs.com article about him, just to give him some exposure. Michael Brenly isn't a top prospect, but if he can hit even a little bit, he's got a chance to perhaps be a backup catcher in the major leagues.

Now, on to tonight's matchup.

West Coast game start times already, and it's not even April yet... the Cubs and White Sox are meeting in early-March Las Vegas games on two weekdays, as opposed to the final-weekend-of-the-spring matchups with the Mariners and/or Padres they've had in Vegas the last two years.

The Cubs will be the "home" team tonight and bat last. Jeff Samardzija gets his second spring start and will face the Sox' John Danks. Here's MLB.com Gameday, in case you don't have access to the telecast on WGN-TV (announced by Len & Bob, as will be tomorrow afternoon's contest).

Discuss amongst yourselves.

Brenly article.

Thanks for linking Al. I hadn’t seen that before. Hopefully he continues to make progress and gets his shot.

It will be good to see Spellcheck in action tonight. Hopefully he has good command and can get through two quality innings. I would really like to see him be a major piece to the pitching staff.

The scouting scale runs from 20-80

so a 50 curveball would be average, while an 80 is top-of-the-line. Lou giving a kid from Single-A a 65-70 curve is pretty good.

A lot like that, I would imagine.

(I actually saw this, once. The ball found its way into one of those odd knooks in Wrigley, and Hector was puffing his way around the bases. I forget if it was Harry or Steve that pointed out that it would have been an inside-the-park home run for almost anyone else in baseball. Hector looked like he was about to have a coronary.)

I’ve read some reviews. Assuming he’s gonna be around for a long time, he’s got a ways to go. Heard him on Howard Stern today; he said the #5 show is gonna be better than #1, and the #50 is gonna be better than the #49. He’s right. He said he’s going to go balls out this first year—stick to stand up on the weekends to stay fresh and live, too. I’ve read THE ROOTS are great; I think it is real cool what they are doing…expanding themselves but still sticking to music. How great would it be to have a house band that can stick with Van Morrison, John Mayer, and Beyonce? Just great.

I think it's a transition process.

Conan leaves, Fallon arrives. Leno slowly leads into Fallon and gains support for him, then Leno leaves. I dunno the time frame, however.

I'm not sure

but I don’t think Conan’s new show starts for a few months yet.

by sue369 on Mar 4, 2009 11:27 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

yeah, I think Leno goes until May something, then Conan takes over that slot and Leno moves to prime time

If I were Conan, I’d start hanging around the studio during Jay’s last few weeks. Every now and then, just walk out on to the set during the show with tape measure in hand. measure the desk, check out the cushions on the chair, etc. etc.

I thought arrogant owner Jerry Jones

would keep him around to keep the Cowboys in the headlines and fans in his new stadium. Maybe he’s taking a new tack on things and trying to build a real team? But again it’s Jery Jones, maybe he wants himself to be in the spotlight, not TO…..
