10/23 AFL update
Andrew Cashner, the Cubs’ No. 1 pick in 2008, gave up one run on three hits in 3 2/3 innings Thursday to take the loss in the Mesa Solar Sox’s loss to Scottsdale. Cashner struck out one, and now is 0-2 in Arizona Fall League play.
Reliever John Gaub, whom the Cubs acquired in the Mark DeRosa deal, was hit hard, giving up four runs on four hits over one inning.
Starlin Castro was the DH Thursday, and went 1-for-4 with a double. He’s batting .481 in the AFL. On Friday, Mesa plays at Peoria, AZ, against the Saguaros.

yeah yeah….. Why hasn’t Reed Johnson beed signed yet…. He’s the only outfielder worth keeping.
Sam Fuld is certainly worth keeping too. But we have to watch what we say, Hendry may take these comments as a direct challenge to either NOT sign Johnson or TRADE Fuld. God knows how he operates, for all we know he may base his decisions on either throwing darts or spiting us “know-it-all” fans because there certainly doesn’t appear to be any other method to his madness. Soriano is worth keeping…Ahhhh Ha!!! I just needed a good laugh!!
