update on all-star voting, no cubs near the top

i've read the best chances are samardzija, hammel, rizzo and castro - but with the way the position voting is going its probably going to be one of the pitchers

[hermes]

oh and its beeler's first start, he's coming up from iowa (don't know if its just because of the double header or if they are going to have him stick around)

i don't know anything about him, is he any good?

[hermes]

cubs win! rizzo with 3 more hits, above .290 now

[hermes]

cubs win again, got with done with the big bats today (rizzo and castro)

Baker, Barney, and Sweeney with the RBIs! Nice one. Doing their best to keep it around 10 games under.

Excited to see how Beeler does. Probably just due to double header, but an audition for post Hammel and Shark.

lost the first game, beeler looked like he pitched well though but ran into gio
