Biggest question mark the Cubs have, by far. They're going to give me heart attacks this season.

BTW, nice job trying to coax a walk on a pitch right down the middle.

it's a bit of a question mark but I think it's a solid pen. My biggest question marks are the health of Harden and Bradley, Ryan Dempster, and Fukudome in Center. I also think losing Derosa is bigger than is talked about even though I think he won't duplicate last years numbers. I'm also concerned with D-Lee's declining plate numbers, i hope he has a bounce back this season

I can already tell I dont like Fuko in CF. He looks like he doesn't see the ball well from that position

he didnt look very good in the WBC either playing CF

I'm nervous about the possibility of Gregg coming in for the save

I don't think Lou will be very patient with Fuku either. If he doesn't start hitting I expect to see a lot of Reed Johnson

I can deal with him at the plate..at least he can get on base. and if a LH bat. Im hoping he can make some strides after a year of MLB pitching

All good points. The biggest thing about DeRosa is his versatility. What are the Cubs going to do when Ramirez pulls a quad again in July? Move Fontenot to third, then all they have left is Miles at 2nd...that's scary. I think Dempster will be good, but not quite as good as last year. Harden is still a big question mark. D-Lee doesn't need to give us 35-120 numbers...if he duplicates 20-90 from last year, that'll be fine. Fukudome will be in Iowa by June.

I look for the Cubs to make moves during the season for a reliever and a versatile bench player for sure. They may re-enter the Peavy discussion if there are any hiccups in the rotation.
