Re: 04/19 Pittsburgh (Gorzelanny) @ CUBS (Marquis) 12:05, CSN TV

Sanchez grounded out to short, 6-3

[BigSlick]

I mean, you can't even really make a defensive argument of DeRosa over Murton in LF. Seriously, FTH Lou?

You can make an argument with the bat though

[Fred Hornkohl]

Bay singled to center field

[Schwarber Fan]

With an outfield of Reed Johnson, Mark Derosa and Fukudome I feel like this lineup has absolutely no power

 

DeRosa has 3 HRs aleady, and what about Ramirez, Lee, and Soto???

Its just a feeling from looking at the outfield, not necessarily true.

In a vaccuum, yes. However, moving DeRosa to 2B would make some amount of sense and still provide an upgrade over Theriot or Cedeno.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Fred, thanks for the pbp. This one is blacked out on my EI.

[Outshined_One]

That...was weird.

[BigSlick]

phew

 

Thanks Cedeno

Agreed. It should be DeRo at 2b, Cedeno at SS and someone else (Probably Murton) in LF.

 

Theriot should be riding pine

[Fred Hornkohl]

Johnson grounded out to third, 5-3

[Outshined_One]

Nice play by Bautista...sadly.

[BigSlick]

If it Theriot at bat, Bautista would have double clutched and thrown the ball into the stands.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot singled to center field

[BigSlick]

well there you go you whiners, Matt Murton is YES DERREK LEE

[Outshined_One]

HoLee Crap!

[Fred Hornkohl]

D Lee homered to left field , Theriot scored

[BigSlick]

Just don't even throw a strike to him, really guys it does more harm then good

[Little Slide Rooter]

Welcome back D-Lee!

[PrimeTime]

DLee will win the gold glove and triple crown

[Schwarber Fan]

Lee leading the MLB in HRs!

[Flames24Rulz]

I'm loving this HR production from Lee.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Ramirez struck out swinging

[BigSlick]

Aramis has put together waaaaay too many 3 pitch strike outs this season.
