here's some Bour stuff, we took him in the minor league portion of the Rule V draft from the Cubs. He's expected to get the call up with Dietrich going to AAA.

 

1B Justin Bour (Cubs)

2009 drafted 25th round from George Mason. He's mildly interesting... some power there and takes some walks.

2014  26 AAA  229  9 .330 .407 .562 .969

 

Several AL park games coming up, I guess he can DH

Does "Bour" rhyme with "tour" or with "hour"?

He mashes

Hopefully he can keep it up for us up here. Maybe give Jones/Yelich a day off here and there in non-DH games...

.330/.407/.562? PCL or not I like. Excited to see him play.

It rhymes with Chrysanthemum.
