Jose Cruz Jr.

I love the fact that this guy wears his stirrup socks the way they should be worn and that his pant legs are not down below his shoe level!! Has his old man made that impression on him??? =D>

Actually, yes. He said in an interview earlier this season he wears the stirrups in homage to his dad.

I like to think it's in honor of my LL years.

He also would have been a lot better of an offseason pick up for the Cubs than Floyd. He would have filled a need of a RH bat that can hit lefties well. Could play other positions other than LF well. I dont know what San Diego is paying him but it cant be much more than we are paying Floyd.

He's making $650,000.

 

I would have liked to have seen the Cubs sign Cruz and Floyd, FWIW.

IMO we already have Jose Cruz in Angel Pagan.

they are very similar, accept Cruz is much better at playing baseball.

 

 

 

I got you all beat in the Cruz/Floyd 'I told you so' sweepstakes. when Maddux's trade to the Dodgers became inevitable, I lobbied for him to be the player the Cubs acquired, for the exact reasons stated above.

He really would have been a nice piece to the OF puzzle. He is in no way comparable to Pagan, or I should say, Pagan is not comparable to him.

 

If the outfield was Soriano, Cruz/Jones, Floyd/Murton, I think this offense would look significantly better. He's always hit LH pitching well and is raking this year.
