Interesting lineup! Link
Im more inclined to put Lee 5th and keep Rameriez in the 4th spot.

Soriano first, Fuku 2nd, Lee 3rd, Ramirez 4th... i like that he's going to tinker this spring...

I am pretty sure Lou is going to do a lot of tinkering around like he did last year.
Take this post as my predicition that Lee has a MUCH better year than last year. I honestly think the deal with his daughter really kept his head out of the game. With that being somewhat stabilized I think he will be much more focused and DANGEROUS at the plate.

It was recommended that Fukudome not hit 2nd. The strategy in Japan is to anything to get the player over by bunting or hitting grounders. The Cubs got Fuku for some power and that position wouldn't be taking advantage of it.

I think putting rami before lee could be a good move... He may get more pitches to drive with lee behind him.

Better to be hated for who you are, than beloved for who you're not.

The Cubs are probably my favorite team if I were unbiased... But my wife does LOVE Derek Lee! | |

I would love to see Pie actually do something this year.

'But I love the idea of the Sacrificial Lamb. . . There are consequences to actions. The point of the death of Christ is that Christ took on the sins of the world, so that what we put out did not come back to us, and that our sinful nature does not reap the obvious death. That's the point. It should keep us humbled. . . It's not our own good works that get us through the gates of heaven.'
Bono 3/12/04.

Having a lead off hitter with a low on base percentage, but will hit a lot of homers with no one on base. You're a genius Lou.

I just won a bet I had with myself on how many people would take the time to post that they hate the Cubs.
Good work outta you!
