![]() Dome, RF
Theriot, SS Soriano, LF Lee, 1B Ramirez, 3B DeRosa, 2B Soto, C Pie, CF Maybe switch Pie and Soto because Soto is more patient. take it easy with Cedeno, his defense is questionable. Theriot just fizzled towards the end, he was tired. If Pie would ever chill out, he would be a perfect lead off hitter and it could look like this Pie, CF Theriot, SS Soriano, LF Lee, 1b Ramirez, 3B Dome, RF DeRosa, 2B Soto, C What it will actually look like on opening day is Soriano, LF Theriot, SS Lee, 1B Ramirez, 3B Dome, RF DeRosa, 2B Soto, C Pie, CF If this Dome guy is as good as a contact hitter that he supposedly is, he would be great behind ARam, to protect him in good situations. |

Would it not be better to put the guy who gets on base a lot in front of the RBI guys instead of behind them? Soriano is not a 3 hole type hitter BTW |

CEDENO...I can't believe you even mentioned it. He has two good games a year that keeps him on the map |

![]() They also might do.....
Soriano Dome Lee ARam DeRosa Soto Pie Theriot Lou likes contact in the 2nd hole and speed in the 7 and 8th hole so that pitcher can put the speed over |

I have no idea what to expect from this year, but at least they are doing something, especially given there is pending ownership issues..... |

![]() Cubs are still going after Brian Roberts. That could be in the equation here.
But yes - pitching, pitching, pitching. I don't care how good of a season Lilly had, that playoff game has to make you wonder if he has the toughness to handle such important games.

You had the Cubs beat by about 3 years until two years ago or whenever it was. You guys were only THREE GAMES better then the f'n Royals, consistently the worst team in the last 10 years. And this year, you guys might win 75 games, MIGHT. Have fun in 4th place again. I would even listen to a Royals vs White Sox wager if I was given a couple games..... |

It's all about pitching my friend...the lineup means nothing. Just look at the AL Central. White Sox...world champions in 2005...greatly improved their offense in 2006...no playoffs. Detroit...world series in 2006...greatly improved their offense in 2007...no playoffs. Improved it again this year...big deal. Cleveland...far worse offense in 2007 than 2006...under .500 in 2006...1 game from world series in 2007. It appears to me from 3 separate teams in the AL Central...the worse your offense, the better you do (that shouldn't happen, but completely proves it is all about the pitching...not your lineup.) Isn't Zumaya still hurt?? Detroit had one of the best offenses last year...how have they improved their bullpen this year??
