I would like to have found out how he did in crucial games, as opposed to Jose Macias. Yup. You really have to wonder if the Cubs couldn't have won a few more games if Dubois had gotten all the OF playing time that went to Macias and Goodwin. As long as we have Dusty Baker managing we'll have "what ifs" like this at the end of the season. Is your anti-Baker bias that strong? Or did you miss the games between late May - late August when our bullpen blew many, many, many 6th, 7th and 8th inning leads. I hated Macias and Goodwin playing, too, but Dubois playing didn't cost us nearly the number of games as our bullpen did. It would've been nice if Hendry would've improved a glaring weakness we had for 3/4 of the season - the bullpen.

I would love for Dubois to be the starting left or right fielder in 2006. I would rather have Drew or Beltran starting next year, with Dubois making enough starts (definitely when Drew or Sosa is hurt) to have 250 at-bats in 2005. I would like to see him playing everyday in 2006 when Sosa's contract isn't re-newed. I would guess his playing time depends on who our ss and 2nd baseman are, and depending how much money the Cubs would have to spend or not spend on a left fielder.
