    Cubs 2013 Preview: a Bit Better Pitching, but Rebuilding Still Grinds Along Slowly

    Cubs 2013 preview: A bit better pitching, but rebuilding still grinds along slowly By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, March 29, 2013 Theo Epstein is getting double for his money these days. First, the former lifelong Bostonian is getting a valuable education in Chicago politics as the three- cornered debate over Wrigley Field renovations shows how Clout City USA really works. And yet all the arguments over whether the Cubs should get seri- ous with Rosemont and consider moving if they don’t get a renova- Cubs GM Jed Hoyer (with wife Merrill) and boss Theo Ep- tions deal very soon give Epstein stein have once again constructed a roster that can be and his baseball operations depart- disassembled via mid-season trades. ment a big break. Off-the-field issues involving Wrigley Field, whether the installation of lights, falling concrete or Arne Harris’ hat shots, are always far more than sideshows. They become the main story, relegating the Cubs’ on-field fortunes to notebook status. The taffy pull involving Tom Ricketts, Rahm Emanuel, Tom Tunney, the rooftop owners and the vil- lage of Rosemont absolutely shifted the Cubs’ spring-training countdown to Opening Day to secondary news-angle status. If all focus was on the team itself, the conclusion would be a sub-standard roster with a slew of place-holders that is being intentionally fielded for the second-year in a row. Worse yet, as Epstein vows a rebuilding-from-the-ground-up strategy, there are no pitching phenoms or fresh-faced hot rookies as attention-getters to make the continual losing more palatable.

    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings March 19, 2016 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 2014 - A Cactus League game between the Reds and Royals is abruptly stopped in the 6th inning when Reds closer Aroldis Chapman is struck in the face by a line drive off the bat of Salvador Perez. Chapman is taken off the field on a stretcher, with fractures above his eye and in his nose, as well as multiple lacerations.The two managers then elect not to continue play, with the blessing of home plate umpire Chris Guccione. MLB.COM Adam Duvall, Tyler Holt bookend Reds' win By Adam McCalvy / MLB.com | @AdamMcCalvy | March 18th, 2016 + 166 COMMENTS PHOENIX -- Adam Duvall had three hits for the Reds, including a long, two-run home run, and Chris Carter hit his third homer for the Brewers as the teams battled back and forth Friday at Maryvale Baseball Park. The Reds ultimately prevailed, 7-6. Carter hit a solo home run in the fourth inning, Kirk Nieuwenhuis hit a tying triple in the fifth and Rymer Liriano lifted a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the sixth as part of a middle-inning comeback for the Brewers, who had won four of their previous five games. But the Reds quickly tied the game at 5 in the seventh inning on Jake Cave's two-out single. Duvall, a candidate for Cincinnati's left field vacancy who manned third base in this game, homered to cap the Reds' three-run first inning. Joey Votto also delivered an RBI single in the inning, but all three runs were unearned against Brewers starter Chase Anderson because of an error charged to left fielder Ryan Braun.
