Ok, everybody breathe.
The Cubs are back over .500 after a 4-2 home stand, with three wins against the pesky Marlins (could have been a 4-game sweep) and a split with the Giants (including Tuesday's loss against 2008 CY Young winner Tim Lincecum).
Saw some good things from this home stand. Saw some of the same problems, and also saw a potentially devestating injury.
So, without further adieu, here we go:
Highs
The Riot. Somebody's got to hit for power for this team, so why not slap-hitter Ryan Theriot. Nice, especially the slam against the Marlins to help ****** victory. Those are the kind of hits that can turn a season around.
DLee. Good to see him get going a little more and driving the ball. Still striking out a lot more than I can remember, but at least he's showing signs of life.
Fontenot (offense). He can hit, and he'll get his chances to do so in this lineup. Settling in at third, but it was nice to see ARam.....
