No Place like First Place

Cubs Shortstop Ryan Theriot talks about the Cubs recent surge into first place.

Aramis Ramirez has retuned, and Milton Bradley has finally begun to hit the ball better. Alfonso Soriano has made the adjustment from leadoff man to Sixth man in the order, and the Cubs pitchers haven't missed a beat despite the fact that a moderate injury bug has forced Lou Piniella to make changes to his rotation.

The Cubs begin a four game series against The Astros tonight which will tell us a lot about the Cubs, who are finally starting to play good baseball.
