It was a night filled with once and future Cubs as Iowa took on the Fresno Grizzlies (Astros AAA affiliate) Monday night in Des Moines. Dan Straily — the forgotten man in the Shark/Addison Russell deal — was on the bump for the Grizzlies and he was looking good through the first 3 innings. Then the wheels fell off and he had to stay out there and take one for the team.
Javier Baez led off the bottom of the 4th inning last night with a single and then stole 2nd before Christian Villanueva and Mike Olt walked to load the bases.
