we'll find out in 146 games! What has this Cubs team shown that shows they can be a great team this year? Lee is aging fast, Soto still can't hit, our bullpen is a complete epic failure, our rotation isn't as good as last year, Milton Bradley was a horrid signing thus far, Mike Fontenot and Ryan Theriot are sub-par, our bench is anorexic, etc. 16 games and we at worst a .500 team after today. If you don't think that they are capable of much more you will at some point this season. I just think this team has too many holes. Much more than last year. ughgh for one bradley led the al in obp and ops last year. hes hitting 43 for us.

Haven't we had a problem with RISP for years now? we've hit better with RISP than we have without RISP each of the last three years...

Just how bad of a 2B was Soriano?
Mephistopheles replied to Little Slide Rooter's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
To be fair, Soriano played SS in NPB as did KF. -
im supposed to get the Cubs game in Austin, but I'm not trusting what my local outlets say. Well guys, in the case of an emergancy, Soriano can play 2B/SS and KF can play 3B/SS. Oh brother. Wouldn't this be great: Fonte at 3B, Soriano at 2B and KF at SS (though I would think we would let Fonte play short and KF play third if it came to that.
