Hey !! That's my line !! :evil:

I have no problem with Lee getting a day off. I know he likes to think he should be in the lineup for 162 games, but hes not getting any younger and needs some rest. With that said, it doesn't mean you put his replacement into the 3 spot of the lineup. And the Soto/Hill thing is way past ridiculous. D Lee has started the last 44 games. One game off for him is in order. About Soto......... 05/21 - 05/31 AB R H 2b 3b HR RBI BB SO BA OBP SLG OPS BABIP P/PA RC IsoD RBI% Soto 25 1 4 0 0 1 2 2 6 0.160 0.222 0.280 0.502 0.167 3.59 1.6 0.062 0.111 K Hill 11 0 3 0 0 0 1 1 4 0.273 0.333 0.273 0.606 0.429 3.58 1.0 0.061 0.143 Lou just put up his 41st distinct and different lineup in 53 games. That's not what we call status quo, eh? edit: The team plays equally bad, regardless of who's catching. Team record by starting catcher....... CUBS are 18-21 (.462) when Soto starts at catcher CUBS are 6-7 (.462) when K Hill starts at catcher

This is a really great discussion, but I'm going to ask you continue it in the CUBS Discussion Forum, since it's really no longer about Monday's game. Thanx.
