Happ & Madrigal Are Kept Busy on the Backfields

Anderson Suriel belted an RBI triple and a two-run HR, Christian Olivo doubled twice, stole a base, scored one run, and drove-in another, Yohendrick Pinango drilled a triple and a single, and SP Dom Hambley hurled three innings of no-hit ball with four strikeouts, helping the Hi-A South Bend Cubs defeat the Lo-A Myrtle Beach Pelicans 7-5 on Field # 5, and SP Connor Noland fired three innings of one-hit shutout ball with five strikeouts and Carter Trice drilled a two-run single, as the AA Tennessee Smokies defeated the AAA Iowa Cubs 5-2 on Field # 6, in Cubs Minor League Camp intrasquad game action Friday morning at the Riverview Baseball Complex in Mesa, AZ.  

OF Ian Happ and INF Nick Madrigal (both rehabbing from hamstring strains) served as designated hitters for both AAA Iowa and for AA Tennessee in the game on Field # 6. For the day, Happ (batting only left-handed since he was facing only RHPs) went a combined 2-4 with a solo HR, a double, four walks, and one strikeout (swinging) in eight plate appearances, and Madrigal went a combined 2-7 with two singles, a walk, and one strikeout (swinging) in eight PA. Neither player ran the bases.   

Here are the box scores from the two games:

    "Morel told reporters after the game that he felt alright, just a little banged up — specifically noting his right hip and both elbows. He did say that he was optimistic about his ability to play on Sunday, though manager Craig Counsell may have other plans."

    rsox putting pablo reyes up to pitch...an infielder...cranking 70+mph stuff.

    ...and of course he gets out of it with no runs scored...that kind of day for the cubs.

  • crunch (view)

    ...and wisdom replaces mervis on the mound to try to get the last out.

    busch is at 3rd, but i wouldn't read too much into that.

    wisdom's thrown a couple in the 80s (one of them 88mph), but both missed the strike zone badly.

    matt mervis is no david ross on the mound.

    cubs run differential getting destroyed.

  • crunch (view)

    matt mervis pitching...wisdom replaces morel at 3rd.

    he's featuring some high-50s thunder on the fastball.

    through 15 pitches, he's straight up throwing BP...all mid-high 50s lobs.  no way he's going to jose canseco himself out of a job.

    on pitch 21 he railed a 75mph fastball missing high on a 0-1 count.  ha.

  • crunch (view)

    he's hugging canario in the dugout cuz morel will shrivel up and die if he doesn't hug at least a dozen people a day.

  • crunch (view)

    and morel is injured...nice.

    morel trying to play LF from 3rd...runs into canario while leaping and comes down ribs/arm-first.

    hopefully he sticks around to finish this terrible game, or at least is going to avoid the IL.

    Amen to that last point!
