Me either. 5 days of no baseball activity into the starting lineup, I don't see how that makes sense.

2 Weeks too late...
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Cubs' Ramirez likely headed for disabled list
June 8, 2010 5:51 PM | 1 Comment | UPDATED STORY
By Paul Sullivan
MILWAUKEE -- Aramis Ramirez is back on the bench again for Tuesday night's game against Milwaukee, and appears to be headed for the 15-day disabled list.
It's his second straight day off, though Ramirez struck out pinch-hitting Monday.
"We're going to explore some options with him and that's all I've got to say about that," manager Lou Piniella said.
Ramirez's left thumb still bothers him, and his poor hitting is dragging the team down.
"Rather than milking it along and possibly getting it 100 percent well... we'll see," Piniella said.
The Cubs are expected to call up third baseman Chad Tracy, who is hitting .396 at Triple-A Iowa since being sent down earlier this year.
Geovany Soto is sitting for the third time in four games. Tyler Colvin originally was on the bench, despite a right-hander on the mound, but was a late sub into left field in place of Alfonso Soriano.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Except that we probably won't see Tracy that much, we will probably see more of Fontenot at third with Theriot at 2nd.

Since Fontenot is hitting a stellar 1 - 16 in the last 10 days, now is the time to see what he can do as a full time player at 3rd?
Didn't we try this crap last year? Wasn't it last year, we learned that he can't handle a bunt at 3rd and his production sucks as an everyday 3rd baseman?

I dunno about "we" but Piniella never seems to learn anything.

He's still killing lefties - .969 OPS vs. LHP in 75 at bats.
Of course, against RHP... 1 hit in 33 at bats. Ouch.

He pisses me off every time a ball is hit in his direction. He is an abortion with the glove.

Did you see Baker's 2 errors at third in the same inning?

That's why I said I wished Baker was the one being DFA'd instead.
