kwelch 1,028 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Picked him up just in time to qualify as a keeper in my league. I guess Sept will be his try out. I hope he can get regular playing time. Link to post Share on other sites
wayzupusc 420 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Hope they have his travel arrangements to meet the team in the works already...I haven't seen anything in the way of a formal announcement of his call-up and I'd like to start him at 2B this week. I can't imagine he'd travel with the AAA team to Oklahoma City for their road series starting there tomorrow if they plan on having him join the big league club that's about to start a 6 game home stand tomorrow with a day off on Thursday. So what's the best case in terms of immediate PT? He gets there Tuesday to play in Tuesday night game...may or may not play in the day game on Wednesday...CHC off Thursday...then Friday-Sunday, he plays 3 of the 4 weekend games so total of 4 games (give or take) or so for the week for we weekly lineup owners?

FouLLine 2,849 Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Well here we go. Maddon has indicated that Baez will be up on Tuesday. Hope he can come out hot!! http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/cubs/post/_/id/33723/javier-baez-expected-back-on-tuesday Well here we go Link to post Share on other sites
einstein2u 498 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 i could see him putting up dozier type numbers, as soon as next year. dozier 2015 .245/26 hr/48 rbi/10 sb Link to post Share on other sites
ragrag 1,494 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hopefully this will be of the last posts in his MILB thread. Today Baez went 4/5 with 2 runs, an rbi, and 0 K's. Link to post Share on other sites

lipitorkid 772 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 i could see him putting up dozier type numbers, as soon as next year. dozier 2015 .245/26 hr/48 rbi/10 sb Seems like a reasonable comp Dozier never had more than 9 HRs in a season in the minors. Baez had 37, as a 20 year old. I'll let you do the math and figure out the potential IF Baez has figured it out. Link to post Share on other sites
lipitorkid 772 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Remember we talk about prospects with low floors and high floors. Baez has a lower floor than most of the young Cubs in the majors. But also make no mistake... only Baez has unicorn potential. If he figures it out. He will be the best young Cub and that's saying a lot. Link to post Share on other sites

tucker26 2,400 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Josh Hamilton and Danny Espinoza are better ceiling/floor comp's. Personally I think he's closer to Espinoza at this point but we shall see how it goes. Link to post Share on other sites

There's always the if, but I think those numbers are more than within reach for Baez next year. Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Bluth 964 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Bryant in rf and la Stella at 3b. Setting it up for Baez to play 3b Link to post Share on other sites
Deke 1,926 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Cubs trading for Austin Jackson doesn't sound good for Baez. Moves Coghlan out of the OF, giving them Russel at SS and Coghlan/Castro at 2B. Link to post Share on other sites

FouLLine 2,849 Posted September 1, 2015 Author Share Posted September 1, 2015 Ohh also Starlin Castro had 3 errors yesterday ..... 2 in one inning. Baez should have a good shot of taking his spot now. Link to post Share on other sites
