Aram left the game son of a..............

[Flames24Rulz]

I hate walks.

[E.J.]

Crap. More leg/groin problems for Aramis. Hope it's not too serious.

[Alfonso Soriano]

Well that is our season. 8-)

Izturis now batting cleanup.

 

The first time that sentence has ever been used in history

no runs Z

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Does Pie seem like the ideal leadoff hitter to anyone else?

 

If he can continue being patient, I think he has the ceiling of a mid nineties Kenny Lofton with a little more power.

[transplanted_suburbanite]

Story of our life.

No.

[erik316wttn]

[expletive]. Aram is probably out for a week with his hammy now.

[Rob]

Does Pie seem like the ideal leadoff hitter to anyone else?

 

No.

 

He doesn't get on base that much and his power would be less useful out of the leadoff spot. And not even to dignify talk of his speed being useful there, but he doesn't steal bases at a good enough rate that we should be sending him at all.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Estrada pops out to Theriot behind second.

[Alfonso Soriano]

Does Pie seem like the ideal leadoff hitter to anyone else?

 

No.

Why not, he always gets on a base.

Soriano doesn't get hot til late in the game.

[UMFan83]

ARam will be day to day and miss 5 games probably. That my guess

Macier Izturis has 2 AB out of the cleanup spot.

 

:twisted:

Who do we have that can play the infield, besides who's playing now?

you are confusing me.

Pie gets hits early in the game.

Soriano waits til late in the game to get his hits.

At least that is what I have noticed.

I would rather have Pie in the leadoff spot.

[E.J.]

ARam will be day to day and miss 5 games probably. That my guess

 

Who do we have that can play the infield, besides who's playing now?

 

Um...

 

Barrett could maybe play third?

No one. Well, perhaps Barrett. But honestly? No one.
