Bump for his Iowa numbers climbing up to .328/.489/.818 during his hot streak (including 5HR in 8 games).

Not Rizzo numbers, but hopefully he's figuring it out.

While Brett Jackson also appears to have picked up the slack to the tune of a .345 OBP and .510 SLG for the season so far.  His 7 HR's take a little of the sting out of the 68 K's.

He's also got 8 triples. So the kid can motor.

Also, 11 stolen bases while being caught once.

Only 12 people have seen him play and I'd say no more than three think he's any good.

But did anyone see him play 100 times?

Has anyone seen it too many times?

Maybe 24 people get these inside jokes and several actually find them funny.

Trying to get your career back on track in Sioux City is, um, like, awesome

http://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/sports/baseball/iowa-cubs/2017/06/08/josh-vitters-chicago-cubs-sioux-city-independent-league/376407001/

QuoteAs the 2007 draft loomed, the Cubs zeroed in on Vitters. Chicago scouting director Tim Wilken was the architect of the Cubs' draft plans.

"I wasn't the scouting director. I was the general manager. I always let the scouting director make those picks," Hendry explained.

...

"If he didn't go with the third pick, he was going (with) the fourth pick," Hendry said. "So it wasn't like everybody didn't love him."

"It's Tim Wilken and his ilk who sucks, not me," Hendry repeated as he curled into a ball on the floor.

Wilkin definitely made up for Vitters in the comp round but Hendry fucked that one up.

By the way, if you guys have it somewhere in your hearts not to mention Brett Jackson ever again, I would appreciate it.

Nobody mentioned him but you, you 2-dimensional schtick-monger.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Wait, the ledge had been buried..
QuoteVitters lives in a two-bedroom apartment in Sioux City with teammates Tony Campana, a former MLB player with the Cubs and others, and LeVon Washington.

There has to be a line of Cubs groupies from 2009 lined up down the street.

Three dudes living in a two bedroom apartment?  That's rough.
