Wow, Lou. Way to show confidence.

Maybe he's actually <i>trying</i> to get a rise out of Aramis. For that, I wouldn't blame him.

Honestly, I hadn't seriously considered that. If that's his intention, then I certainly can't blame him, either. Obviously, Rami does need to pull his head out of his ass and quit swinging for the fences every at bat. Good call, Kabes.

The lineup doesn't matter, right?

I miss his patented lined rockets up the box into center. When he's getting those hits, he's in a good place at the plate.

I think Byrd leading off is stupid, but I don't really have an issue with moving Ramirez down. It's probably over-managing, but as soon as he starts hitting he'll be back in the cleanup spot.

Agreed that Lou is overreacting.
The Cubs aren't scoring runs and I think are scheduled to face 3 lefties in the next 4 starts. He could have just said it was time to shake up the lineup. Instead he said that here is the lefty lineup.
If it works and the Cubs score runs, great. If not, I wouldn't expect the lineup to stick beyond this series. I doubt if it will stick beyond Monday's start.
Lou loves reworking lineups. He should have just stated that he was shaking things up due to the lack of runs rather than a lefty starter BS.

That's retarded. I'm also totally shocked that the problem wasn't the hitting coach.

I'm glad Dusty was able to help Lou in putting together that awesome lineup.
