Kendall may bat 9th for the Brewers

[TruffleShuffle]

According to this BP article. And BP suggests that it is a good move and will result in more runs over the course of the season than if Kendall batted 8th and the pitcher 9th.

Would the Cubs be better off doing this with Theriot?

 

Let's say they were debating putting him 8th or 9th, I think he would do better 9th than 8th and provide a guy on base for Roberts/Soriano (if that occurs).
