Some dominating pitching by the Smokies and Daytona Cubs. Doesn't matter where they play, Iowa still can't beat Albuquerque. And the Cougars are thinking of taking up skiing.

All the Cubs minor league teams lost today, except for Kane County who was rained out.

The Florida Sate League suspended Daytona Cubs outfielder Jorge Soler for five games.

Iowa finally gets on the board with their first win of the season. Tennessee drops their home opener and Daytona blows a big lead and falls in extras.

Daytona Cubs outfielder Jorge Soler was ejected after charging the Clearwater dugout with a bat in his hands. A suspension is looming.

One prominent writer adds his voice to those wanting the end home-plate collisions. Jered Weaver is going to miss some time. Jason Motte may miss a lot more. Roy Halladay is struggling and MLB still hasn't gotten their cell phones.

Iowa is having a rough road trip to start the season. After getting swept in their first series, Kane County have won the first two game of their second series. Daytona's win streak comes to an end.

It's really hard finding time to track all the essential players in college now that the minor league season has started.

Kane County plays their third straight extra-inning game, but this time they win their first game ever as a Cubs affiliate. Iowa is still looking for their first win and Tennessee drops the rubber game of their five game series with Pensacola.

Things aren't looking good for most of the Cubs minor league teams so far in Florida, but Daytona is currently living up to all expectations and more.
