Well done Cole Hamels. Now, Cubs, pull your heads out of your asses and starting beating bad teams. Startiing tomorrow. And, the effing Giants win again...crappy weekend so far.

1st no hitter I ever witnessed in person. Really exciting...Wrong team.

Bubble burst - or Carriage tuned back into the pumpkin with this game for me. This season has been gravy so far. It will be interesting to see if they can re-boot, relax and just fucking hit. Its so "Cub" that Castro has turned into Bobby Scales or Ronny Cedeno right at the Trade Deadline, and Cole Hamels - whom they have been courting - throws a no-hitter before any deals were made, and Vogelbomb is on the DL. Plus, Baez breaks his finger... Sometimes you have to just scratch your head with these occurences.

Today, a very good pitcher had very good stuff -- that happens. Yesterday, to me, was the bad loss -- a good, veteran team (they who shall not be named) would never have lost yesterday's game. So many chances to win, none of them seized. In the words of Crash Davis: "Fuck this fucking game. I fucking quit..........Who do we play tomorrow/"

Let's see. The Cardinals lost their #1 prospect in a tragic accident over the winter, lost their #1 pitcher for the year, and two of their key starting position players for a good chunk of the year. The Dodgers lost their #3 and #4 starter, Puig and Crawford for most of the year. Both are in first place. I would say their "occurrences" have been WAY worse than Castro sucking and two prospects being hurt. Every team has "occurrences." You could look back at Olt getting hurt as one but it got Bryant up sooner. Good teams suck it up and keep winning. I believe that Maddon and these kids will do the same.

Expectations for LA, STL and the Cubs were very different at the start of the year, and the Cubs are starting 3 or 4 rookies every day. Cubs don't have Kershaw/Greinke/Gonzalez or Molina/Peralta/Heyward/Rosenthal -- i.e. successful veterans with MLB experience . Cubs are a bunch of kids (other than Lester) who are learning life in the big leagues or trying to sustain success for the first time. They aren't a consistently good team yet, and they are not yet a finished product, but they are headed in the right direction.

    Very well played game all around tonight.

    best starter and 2 top hitters from the team gone...and they keep on winning.

    little ahead of myself here, but the RSox got 9 outs to find 6+ runs.

    Richard Gallardo just left the Smokies game with an arm injury after going to the ground following a pitch. Doesn’t sound good at all.

    Phil, do you think Wiggins will start out in ACL?

    The level of conversation on this site is intelligent, reasoned and informative. Miles ahead of other Cub sites.

    This was Jaxon Wiggins previous "live" BP on 4/5: 

    JAXON WIGGINS:

    one batted ball in play (F-9 by Stevens)
    one walk (B. Davis) 
    one HBP (B. Davis)
    two strikeouts (Peralta & Escobar - both looking)
    three swing & miss 
    two fouls 
    four called strikes
    nine called balls

    Prior to the Cactus League game at Papago Park, three Cubs pitchers threw "live" BP on Field 1 at the Cubs Sloan Park complex, including RHRP Ethan Roberts (June 2022 TJS) and Cubs 2023 2nd round draft pick RHP Jaxon Wiggins (February 2023 TJS).  

    Wiggins last threw "live" BP three weeks ago before being shut down for a couple of weeks, and this was the first time Roberts has thrown to hitters in almost two years. 

    JAXON WIGGINS: 
    ONE INNING:
    25 pitches (11 strikes)
    no batted balls in play
    two walks (Suriel and J. Diaz) 
    three strikeouts (Carico, Lubo, and Escobar - all three swinging)
    six swing & miss
    two fouls 
    three called strikes 
    14 called balls 
    one WP 

    ETHAN ROBERTS: 
    ONE INNING 
    15 pitches (7 strikes) 
    two batted balls in play (G-3 by Carico and L-9 by Suriel) 
    two walks (Lubo and Carico)
    no strikeouts  
    no swing & miss 
    two fouls 
    three called strikes 
    eight called balls 
    one WP 

    Mat Peters was bumped by Justin Steele from his scheduled game work at Giants, so he threw two innings of "live" BP with Wiggins & Roberts. 

    MAT PETERS: 
    TWO INNINGS 
    44 pitches (23 strikes) 
    five batted balls in play (F-7, L-7, F-7, G-6, G-3) 
    three walks 
    two strikeouts (both Lubo and both looking)
    six swing & miss 
    three fouls 
    nine called strikes
    21 called balls 
    three WP
