How good is Ryan Theriot, really?

[RyCubsFan]

I do like his 10 for 11 in stolen bases. That percentage certainly makes Ryan an asset on the basepaths.

 

 

Edit: After tonight, make that 11 for 12!

I'd like to see Theriot play SS for the rest of the season and see what he can do. Let Cedeno and Bynum platoon at 2nd.

what exactly has theriot donw to not get consideration for the 2b job? his post sw stats are solid. no he will not have slugging but he is a second baseman. if we had a decent of we wouldn't need to have 40 jacks by our 2bagger!

let me get thi straight..it's ok that murton doesn't have a great slugging pct as a left fielder because we love him but we have a guy who can play d, looks like he can hit .300 and have an obp og 350 or higher, steal a base or two and we are concerned with his slugging?

so let's play cedeno there...who doesn't play d as well as, doesn't hit as well, doesn't hit or get on base as well(probably).....

 

obvioulsy if we get soriano...he is a different story altogether

[Abe Frohman]

If the Cubs could get Soriano, I would hope they would consider Theriot as an option for SS. He can also lead off.
