Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: April 30
Yonathan PerlazaBefore I give the recap, I’m going to leave this here before people start rumors.
Christopher Morel not in the @IowaCubs lineup. Scheduled day off. Nothing to read into.
— Tommy Birch (@TommyBirch) April 30, 2023 Morel was at Principal Park. Just not playing. Iowa didn’t really miss him.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs continue to amaze as they burnt the Louisville Bats (Reds), 13-0.
Javier Assad came within one out of getting the win, going 4.2 innings and allowing no runs on three hits. Assad struck out six and walked no one, although he did hit one batter.
Tyler Duffey relieved Assad in the fifth, faced three batters, retired all three, struck out two of them and got the win.
