Chicago Cubs at Washington Nationals
FRI, July 4th 10:05 AM TV: WGNSAT, July 5th 3:05 PM TV: CSN
SUN, July 6th 12:35 PM TV: WGN
Did we drop 10 losses from the schedule
Cubs are getting some power from their outfielders lately
Schierholtz and Ruggiano
Looks like they brought some of that offense with them from Boston
I've been telling you guys for a while that Ruggiano is a decent bat. He isn't special or anything but he is hardly the problem on this Cubs offense. Coghlan and Schierholtz hitting is just making things work out like I had hoped they would have to start the year.
I noticed something similar right around the time he returned from the DL. I haven't been following it closely but I don't recall him starting daily and he probably should be if he isn't already. Throw out Lake or Schierholtz and he's better than either. I guess they were trying to give Nate a chance to up his value as a trade piece but he's not really even been situationally good. Bad in all months thus far. Bad vs both righties and lefties.
