Sexy Pick Alert: Ryan Theriot

Found April 27, 2007 on The GNUru Fantasy Baseball:
PLAYERS: Ronny Cedeno,  Cesar Izturis,  Mark DeRosa,  Ryan Theriot
TEAMS: Chicago Cubs

Due to the Cubs lack of offensive prowess, Uncle Lou Pinella has decided to give utility infielder Ryan Theriot a shot at the everyday shortstop position. Former starter Caesar Izturis just hasn't been getting the job done at the plate as indicated by his .184 batting average. Fantasy baseballers and Cub fans alike have been intrigued by Ryan "The Riot" Theriot (pronounced Terry-o) due to his ability to swipe bags and get on base. The GNUru tells you what to expect from Theriot from a fantasy baseball perspective.

  • it's about time the Cubs made way for Theriot. Izturis blows. I hope they keep Theriot leading off and move down Soriano!

Pinella to Theriot: SS is your's to lose

Via Cubs Hub  |  April 26, 2007
According to several reports out of Chicago, Lou has given the starting shortstop nod to utility fielder Ryan Theriot. With the anemic offense coming from Izturis and Cedeno's bat, while Theriot has shown good plate skills, Pinella decided the lineup needs Ryan's punch at the top. I know alot of fans are hooting and hollering in joy for the decision but it's the WRONG call.
