OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

There was some good chatter about Almora on Twitter the other day. I was going to link Eli to it but fucking did some other shit instead. Anyway the gist is that he's been asked to try a few new things in his approach and is going through some of that stuff right now. He's probably not on the fast track but that certainly doesn't mean he's a bust or whatever.

Also I have been told that Theo has said off the record that Schwarber is "babe fucking ruth"

Almora's been hitting the ever loving shit out of the ball the last couple weeks, so it seems to be working.

Cease just signed.

QuoteThe Cubs have signed sixth-round draft pick Dylan Cease to a contract with a $1.5MM bonus, MLB.com's Jim Callis reports (via Twitter), which far exceeds the $269.5K slot price attached to the 169th overall pick.

Add Addison Russell to the mix.

So Russell, Baez and Castro?  I assume we are not playing a 5 infielder infield, so which one of them is packing?

Baez and Bryant both homered for America today, by the way.  Bryant's 7th in Triple-A and Baez's 12th.
