We need a real number 3 hitter. I don't think very many pitchers (if any) are really that intimated when the Cubs number 3 guy comes to the plate, which is sad.

There is a current Cubs batter that intimated a pitcher? Who? When?

Derrek Lee has an OPS of 1.027 since May 16th. But only has 9 RBIs to show for it. THAT's the problem. We can't get guys on for Lee, and all of our RISP problems don't help.

Good call.
