Last night was pure giddiness! Between the big league Cubs playing until 6:20, the standout performances by Duane Underwood and Trevor Clifton, the rattling of the sabres down in Tennessee by Almora, Hannemann, Schwarber, Vogelbach, and McKinney, and the impressive emergence of John Andreoli and some kid named Javy Baez, it was a glorious night to be a Cubs fan. Just glorious! It is very rare when the top prospects in the organization shine brightly together.
I started out watching South Bend’s Trevor Clifton in a pitching duel with Grant Holmes, a top prospect in the Dodger’s organization.
