Nashville Sounds 0 @ Iowa Cubs 3 (Game 1) Mark Zagunis was 1-3 with a double and run scored. Zagunis has done nothing but hit since being drafted by the Cubs in the 3rd round of the 2014 draft. He was signed for $0.6 million and aside from a 2-game, 9 plate appearance stint to begin his career, here are …
Journeymen of tomorrow: Cubs minor league recap (6.16.16)
Iowa Cubs 6 @ Colorodo Springs Sky Sox 5 Four I-Cubs hitters had three hits apiece and none of them were Willson Contreras. Contreras was 1-5 with an RBI and extended his hitting streak to some number I don’t care about, but maybe you do. What I do care about is that the Cubs best catcher is catching games for the …

Cubs Minor League Recap
Tennessee Smokies 4 @ Mississippi Braves 1 Chesny Young got off to a fantastic start, but has fallen on hard times lately. He was 1-4 against the Braves last night with a strikeout. His season line prior to last night's game had dropped to .297/.390/.363 with a .361 wOBA and 124 wRC+. Those numbers are still good overall, but they've come way …
Cubs Minor League Recap
Memphis Redbirds 5 @ Iowa Cubs 6 Willson Contreras was not in the lineup after injuring his foot, but it does not sound serious. He's expected back in the lineup soon and was said to be day to day. Even with his absence and Albert Almora's promotion to MLB, the Iowa Cubs still won. They're now 29-27. Arismendy Alcantar was 1-3 …
Cubs Minor League Recap (6.4.16)
Iowa Cubs 7, Oklahoma City Dodgers 5 The rainout on Wednesday didn't slow Willson Contreras down. He went 1-4 with a walk and hit his 9th home run of the season. He drove in 3 runs and scored 2.

Cubs Minor League Recap (6.3.16)
Iowa Cubs @ Oklahoma City Dodgers (Postponed) I guess this is about the only way to keep Willson Contreras from having a good day. Jackson Generals 8 @ Tennessee Smokies 4 The Smokies had 10 hits and took 7 walks, but managed only 4 runs. Almost all of them were in the first inning (3). Jacon Hanneman was 2-4 with …
Cubs Minor League Update (6.2.16)
Iowa Cubs 5 @ Oklahoma City Dodgers 4 With the win last night, the I-Cubs sit a game below .500. Maybe that's why Willson Contreras is still on their roster. I agree with Myles. It's time to question whether or not the Cubs are really fielding their best 25-man roster. That's a pretty cool thing to be questioning when you've got …
