If your relying on Lee to get you stolen bases, you might want to find another first baseman. He only stole 51 bases in his first 6 years in the majors. 18 last year. 2 this year.
For fantasy purposes, Lee is sucking the fat one.
I play in 3 leagues, and I have him in 2. In both he's benched, but one is behind Pujols.
I'm also a Cubbies fan, and I hated getting Derrick Lee then, and I hate it even more now. Pudge would have been a much better investment, but hindsight is always 20/20 I guess. I'm also one of the 3 Cubs fans on the planet, maybe in the universe who thinks they should start shopping Sosa. He's a big impact on that lineup, but he's also a huge downer when he's swinging at 65mph change-ups in the dirt.
Goddamn Cubs. Everything will be fine with Grudz/Prior/Sosa and Wood get back.
EDIT: Everything would have been better if Alex Gonzo doesn't bobble that double play ball to end the 8th inning last year.
