It's not like the Cubs are the only team that does it. You see it all the time. Moises Alou reference specifically OK. Gotcha. This is the first game thread I've participated in in quite a while. I'm rusty.
I have dropped Victor Diaz and picked up Cory Patterson. Why? Because I can. And besides, my team managed to stay in 2nd with Diaz on the team. It's not like Patterson will get many starts in my outfield anyway.
AAA first baseman, sharing time with Brandon Sing since Sing has started the season slumping. No wonder I couldn't find him. It's Deardorff, not Deardoff.
Cubs.com has a poll on who should play first with Lee out, and one of the choices is call up Jeff Deardoff. Who the heck is this? I can't find any mention of him anywhere on minorleaguebaseball.com or any other site.
