Should Theriot go back to leading off?

[The-Riot]

I think moving down Soriano has to happen. Im thinking something like this

 

SS-Theriot

RF-Fukudome

1B-Lee

3B-Ramirez

C-Soto

LF-Soriano

2B-DeRosa

CF-Johnson/Pie

P-Zambrano

 

Fukudome batting 2nd is also a better idea. Cedeno can replace DeRosa if he continues struggling.

 

Thoughts?

Soriano should not be leading off, however, I don't think Theriot is a better choice.

Nor is Theroit.

[USSoccer]

He should go back to being a utility player.

if fukudome isn't going to have home run power he should be leading off. then bat derosa 2nd.

I hate guys who get thrown out stealing every 5 games and can't make plays at SS because of a mediocre arm and mediocre range.

Funny because I like guys who hit over .300 and get on base.

Like the best short stop on the team, Ronny Cedeno? Oh but he hits for power in addition to those things, that must be why you don't like him.

Then you will LOVE Ronny Cedeno, he's hitting nearly .400.

Remember when we gave Ronny a chance at short in 2006? Yeah we are trying to compete for a world series you don't have to big black holes (Pie/Johnson,Cedeno) in your lineup

this dude is a faker

No sir I am not I read this site all the time I just dont get why people give Ryan such a hard time

Oh, the irony.

 

BTW, Pie's been very good since Dave Keller worked with him, but you wouldn't notice because Lou won't effing play him.

Yeah just ignore the fact that he was 23 years old, and his production since then. He has been a flat out stud and has had a noticeable change in his approach at the plate, and has better range and a better arm than Theriot. Plus, all teams should give up on a their young guys who struggle early, I don't understand why the D-Backs are still giving Upton and Drew chances after how they played last year, it's just dumb, they have no chance of getting any better, none at all!

Yeah and Theriot has been good basically all year but no one wants to admit he is the teams starting shortstop

[sneakypower]

am i the only person who thinks Cedeno's gaudy stats would be considerably lower with additional ABs?

 

a full month of .400 on-base and Theriot still can't get anybody off his back on here. tough crowd.

He has an Alter Bridge picture in his sig, sorry if you don't like the band. Plus, I though that a trash thread like this would be a good place to say something out of place. It's not like you can take anything in here seriously after reading the title.

Everyone's admitting he's the starter. At issue is whether he should be (and he shouldn't)

Exactly. I think if Ryan Theriot hit like .350 over 5 months people here would still he sucks. I mean he must be doing something right he is the starting shortstop on probably the best team in the NL Central.

We wouldn't be hard on him at all if his manager had half a brain and let him be the utility guy. We don't like that we have a decent bench player as our every day short stop, especially with all the god awful base running goofs and bone headed plays that Ryan makes look so routine.
