Yeah, but he just went 0-2 today with a walk, so he sucks again.  

Try to keep up, fanboy.

Maybe you can catch Game 2 today.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

I also think the Cubs want to bring these guys up one at a time so they don't have two Super 2s in the same year. Bryant will move up to AAA after the first half ends, at the latest. The Smokies are pretty much locked into 2nd for the first half, so there aren't any playoff ramifications to consider.

I guess they're going all in on the PCL Playoffs

At this point, it means more games for Baez at 2B and more ABs for Soler.

Bryant hits his 40th. Recommended sound off unless you like that cutesy "bye bye bye bye baseball" crap.

The Russ Hodges' "Bye Bye Baby" call happened in a game where a Giant hit a home run shortly after some commotion in the stands where a very pregnant woman went into labor.   It was his personal shtick and the other broadcaster couldn't use it.   His partner, Lon Simmons, had to have his home run call so he started with "Tell it bye bye", which morphed into a more manly,  "Tell it goodbye".

When I practice calling games in front of the mirror with a hairbrush, I always scream, "GET OUT OF MY LIFE!!!!" on homers.

I'm flabbergasted by this story.

DOOOOOM.

He isn't coming up this year and their season is two weeks from being over plus playoffs. Sit him down. Who cares.

At least it's not his wrist or hand.

Now they can cite missed development time as a reason to keep him down to start next season.

How do we know Theo didn't sneak into his room while he was sleeping and break his toe with a hammer?  Does Bryant's apartment complex have surveillance footage?
