Cubs at Diamondbacks IST

[CSF77]

Cart before the horse. If he hits this good with regularity you don't platoon this guy.

Still early but the Cubs lack talent at the major league level and this kid is gushing with it. You don't platoon a player with this potential.

Wow, I did not realize Corbin and Skaggs came to the DBacks in the Dan Haren trade. They won that one. lol

LAA got 1.5 yrs of really good Haren and a Ok Haren last yr of deal. They were trying to win and went for it.

Jr Lake. Geez. What a first week.

 

[Mr. Cub]

Lake is having himself a Puig like entrance to the game of baseball, gents.

 

[Parade_Rain]

Any chance Lake can get retroactively placed on this year's All-Star team?

Told my fiancee that I plan on painting Junior Lake's face on the side of my house today with a few rollers and a paint gun. She was all like, "No bid deal, if he keeps playing like this you can name our first child Junior Lake."

Or better yet -- Senior Ocean, bay bay <3

Remember when we didnt need Eric Chavez to play 3rd because he was too injury prone?

Junior Lake though.....that error in the first stopped another 4-5 day.

Is the name Junior pronounced (Who-n-yor) since he is from the Dominican?

Doubles score us some runs. Great having DeJesus back.

DeJesus my least favorite Cub. I think its cause Cub fans love this guy and he been on 1 winning team in his career. He been on 5 100 loss teams. He a losing player. He a 4th OF on a good team but stays on bad teams so he can play everyday. Go look at his numbers and Fukudome numbers and they are the same exact guy. Only reason Cub fans hated Fukudome was cause of money he got paid.

 

[daddies3angels]

Lake 2-2 with 2 doubles!!!

Damn this guy is hot


Minors must have bored Lake

 

[chibears55]

if dejesus has some good ABs in the next week, it wouldnt surprise me if a contending team (s) inquire on him on the 31st to be a platoon / 4th OFer

 

[Mr. Cub]

Schireholtz 3 run HR was nice.

And I like DeJesus. I think he is better than Fukudome. They were both good in the field, but I think DeJesus hits better and has more power.
