by cubs2410 on Aug 5, 2008 3:22 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Why

Can someone please explain to me why the Cubs continue to treat Carlos Lee like he’s Carlos Santana? After nearly a decade of killing them, they have not yet ONCE smoked Lee with a pitch. Not ONCE. See Tim Hudson’s treatment of Soriano after his 3-HR game a year ago and all sorts of other examples of how to get a hitter off the plate. Plant one on Lee and if it still doesn’t work, keep planting them on him until it does. It’s that simple.

Who needs a stinkin' tag line? What are they for anyway?

by krummy12 on Aug 5, 2008 3:22 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Please note my earlier comment:

I’d have preferred that Carlos Lee be missing from the lineup, rather than Berkman.

Does anyone know Lee’s lifetime stats vs. the Cubs? Ever since that grand slam he hit with the Sox against the Cubs in 200?, I’ve been a-feared of him.
