As the cubs are struggling to score runs ever since the injury of aramis ramirez, the only move that they have made is bringing in Ryan Freel. While the Cubs starting pitching is well above average, their shaky bullpen leaves the late innings an adventure for all cubs fan, especially when the score is a 1 or 2 run game. I believe the Cubs are 6-11 in 1-run games this season.
So what should the cubs do? I think they need to get a big time hitter. With the Milton Bradley experience not working, I think the Cubs should get Adam Dunn, no relation to the Summer Catch star Ryan Dunn.
He's hitting .263, 17 HR, 45 RBIs this year. He has hit 40 HRs every year since 2004. And while his average is low and strike outs high, he is soooo good at Wrigley and against the Cubs.
A problem is that he plays Left Field which is already taken. But i'm sure he could move to Right and take over for the horrendous milton bradley. He can also play some first base as Derrek lee gets up in age. Or dare I say, Alfonson Soriano to second and adam dunn to left.
The line-up with Soriano at second could be:
1. Soriano 2B
2. Fukudome CF
3. D Lee 1B
4. A-Ram 3B
5. Dunn LF
6. Bradley RF
7. Soto C
8. Theriot SS
9. Pitcher
Pretty good, huh?
