Chicago Cubs Minor League: June 4
Greg DeichmannThe Cubs released infielder Robel Garcia today. He’s reportedly in negotiations to join the LG Twins of KBO. We wish Garcia the best of luck over there. His power could be a real asset for the Twins.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs defrocked the St. Paul Saints (Twins), 9-5.
Starter Luke Farrell pitched 4.1 innings and allowed four runs on seven hits. He walked two and struck out three.
Sean Newcombe got the win because Farrell didn’t go five innings. Newcombe relieved Farrell in the fifth inning and gave up a run-scoring double (charged to Farrell) to Tim Beckham. But that was the only hit he allowed over 1.2 innings. Newcombe did not have a walk or a strikeout.
