It was announced Sunday that Jen-Ho Tseng and D.J. Wilson had been named the Cubs’ MiLB Pitcher and Player of the Month for July. Tseng had a 1.42 ERA at AAA Iowa to go along with 23 strikeouts in 25.1 IP. Wilson hit .284 with 7 home runs and 21 RBI between Mesa (rehab stint) and South Bend. With officially four weeks left in the MiLB season, it got me thinking: Who will be the Cubs MiLB Pitcher and Hitter of the Year?
When it comes to hitting, the winner is clear-cut: Victor Caratini. No one else is even in the discussion in my mind.
