I'm probably one of Lou's biggest fans and I can't even believe that just happened. Lou believes in his pitchers way too much...who knows that might be a good thing some day?
Cubs.com Should be interesting. Toronto series doesn't look good on paper but I think we can get atleast one and hopefully 2. Marquis v. Hallladay - :-&
I was at the Glavine game last year when Soriano got hurt. Everyone thought he was gone for the season but he came back in 3 weeks and started his monster home run smash. 5/6 weeks and he'll do it again!
6 weeks isn't the rest of the season guys...I say go with DeRo in left and Cedeno at 2nd against lefties and Hoffpauir in left against righties. Move Theriot to leadoff and put Kosuke in the 2 spot. Theriot Fukudome Lee Ramirez Edmonds (while he's still hitting) Soto Hoffpauir DeRosa Theriot Fukudome Lee Ramirez Soto DeRosa Hoffpauir Johnson
Sorry if my point wasn't clear, Murton won't get his chance not because he doesn't deserve it but more so because Lou loves another lefty in the lineup and this lets him put Fuku in the 2 spot and Hoffpauir/Edmonds in the 5 spot.
No it won't. Murton's power numbers in AAA are actually pretty sad. And Soriano's numbers have been awesome since the beginning of May. No chance in hell Murton or Hoffpauir match Soriano's production.
