Agreed. The Cards big 3 is better than the Cubs big 3. I'd take Cubs other 5 vs. the Cards 5, though. I'm just curious as to who is the 3rd of our big 3. Is it the guy who's on the bench today? Barrett, but there's not a lot of difference. Yeah, Barrett. Assume for a minute Barrett's hitting 5th.... The Cards have the edge 3-5 (Pujols, Edmonds, Rolen) over the Cubs 3-5 (Lee, Ramirez, Barrett), and actually the Cubs combo was better to a man last season. I'd take the Cubs leadoff man over the Cards. I'd take each of the Cubs 6-7-8 hitters over the Cards (hypothetically with Jones 6th).
