Methinks that Rickie Weeks is the Cubs' best player.
Why does Yost keep playing him?
And to think, some Chicago writers last year picked Weeks over DeRo at 2B. Should we give them a do-over?

Line drive to Soriano
Weeks was already running, went past second base when soriano caught it, went “oh shit!” and started jogging back to first with the foregone conclusion that he was going to get thrown out.
But DLee dropped the throw from soriano and BARELY recovered it in time to tag a diving weeks out.

Counsell hit a line drive to left.

Line drive to the right of Soriano as Weeks was running on a 3-2 count
Soriano caught and quickly threw a bullet one hop towards 1B (Weeks had to retouch 2B and try to get back) the throw took DLee off the bag and he had to block it, ball on the ground and he grabs it falling down and touches 1B before Weeks makes it back

judging fukudome on half a year seems a tad harsh
in the last 2 weeks, he had begun to swing the bat better, plus his outfield defense is definitely better than floyd or jones or burnitz or whomever the cubs have run out there in the last 4 years.

’’If somebody had told me we were going to lose Soriano for eight weeks, lose [Carlos] Zambrano and Kerry Wood for a couple of weeks apiece, and then at the same time lose [Reed] Johnson, and then when we played the American League not have a DH [then-injured Daryle Ward], and be in first place by two games, I’d tell you we were pretty fortunate.’’ Lou Piniella (7/23/08)
