- Lou announced yesterday that rookie right-hander Justin Berg make the pitching staff to start the season.
- He said John Gaub, James Russell, and Marcos Mateo will battle out for a lefty specialist while Mike Parisi is also battling for a spot. Gaub or Russell should get a spot.
- The Cubs will have either Colvin or Fuld as their 5th outfielder this Spring. If it is not Colvin, what is the purpose of hitting well in ST then?
- Millar and Tracy will battle it out but it looks like Millar may be a better fit because of his clubhouse leadership qualities.
- The Cubs will decide on the rotation on March 24th. The leaders for the 4th and 5th spots are Gorzelanny and Silva. Interesting picks...
- After Monday's game the Cubs management will have a meeting in order to figure out final roster spots and also any potential trades as well as options for their 40 man roster.
Until Next Time...
Looks like Tracy is starting at 3B
ReplyDeletein the last 12 games Ramirez has only 4 at bats cause his shoulder is bothering him. Ramirez, Lilly, Gray, Blanco, Guzman, and Nady still can't throw. Here we go again.
As much as Colvin deserves the 5th OF spot....I rather him get consistent at bats in the minors than rot on the bench all season long.
ReplyDeleteIsn't Mateo a righthander?
