"You ask me, the biggest thing we need here is an RBI bat," Piniella said. "We need an RBI bat to sit in the middle of the lineup with [Aramis] Ramirez and Derrek Lee."
That's what the Cubs were hoping for from Milton Bradley, but he's missing this series against the Giants, part of the 15-game suspension issued last Sunday. The Cubs will try to move the switch-hitter in the offseason following a turbulent first year in Chicago. Bradley was believed to be the missing link because the Cubs were so right-handed.
<b>Does Piniella's dream hitter have to bat left-handed?
"I don't care if he hits between his legs, how's that?" Piniella said. "Right-handed, left-handed, doesn't really matter."</b><!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Wish he would've said that last year.

Eh. All the good ones were left-handed.
