Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Here's the second day of Fangraphs.com's Cubs Clearinghouse series, with today continuing with a discussion of Ronny Cedeno and the Cubs predicament there... My favorite part was this:

*****
"Here is a comparison, offensively, of some of the players being considered for starting gigs by the teams listed above - all of whom are at least two years older than Cedeno.

.269/.328/.352 | $0.8 M | Ronny Cedeno (Chicago NL)
.267/.332/.356 | $1.1 M | Marco Scutaro (Toronto)
.265/.289/.429 | $1.3 M | Wilson Betemit (Chicago AL)
.284/.344/.382 | $4.0 M | Nick Punto (Minnesota)
.237/.296/.349 | $5.3 M | Bobby Crosby (Oakland)
.265/.343/.349 | $0.9 M | David Eckstein (San Diego)"
*****

There's gotta be a team that wants that, right?
Anway, it's a good article.

I would hang onto Ronny Cedeno for the time being

You never know what happens in spring training. A middle infielder could get hurt, etc. Decision doesn’t need to be made on Cedeno until the end of March.

I agree with BLou

Keep Cedeno for now .. Have until end of springtraining to cut or trade ..

last season

in minimal use, he was able to contribute. he is a decent bench/role palyer who can start once in a blue moon.
