I think Brian LaHair has been a nice surprise. I had the luck of picking him up in the closing rounds of our draft, and he has been a huge help to my team since then(just wish some of my other players as well then I wouldn't be 1-2,ha ha)

Yes, LaHair has been great…when he has played. The only reason I didn't list him is he had far fewer at bats than others to this point. Hopefully the Cubs will rectify that. Apparently Cubs brass is talking about how to use both LaHair and prospect Rizzo in the same line-up. Rizzo is tearing up AAA, and will probably arrive in June. Look for LaHair to play one of the corner OF spots at that time, and Rizzo to occupy first base.

LaHair certainly looks legit. If they can get those two in the same lineup should be a nice boost for their offense.
