So -- what say you about Ryan Theriot? Will he step up his production to at least league-average and retain his starting slot? Or is he more the guy who faded in September 2007 and will the Cubs need a replacement by midsummer?
I'm going to lean toward the former, optimist that I am, although these numbers would indicate quite a few days off:
AB: 495
R: 85
H: 137
2B: 36
3B: 2
HR: 3
RBI: 40
BB: 48
SO: 44
AVG: .277
OBA: .341
SLG: .376
