He's been Superman lately, D Lee.
It's been awhile for him, where you just expect good things to happen with his bat.
In the last 6 games he's got 6 homers and 14 RBIs, and most of these have been meaningful, clutch hits.
The kind we've been missing alot this year.
That brings his totals to 16 homers and 53 RBIs so far this year.
Since the broken wrist, his best was 22 homers (2007), and 90 RBIs last year.
The psychic in me boldly predicts he breaks those numbers this year.
And with the 2 run homers the last 2 games, he and Kosuke Fukudome might become the new Daily Double.
How awesome was that 2 run homer yesterday?
He cu-rushed that ball.
I felt so lucky to be in the bleachers on Sunday when he hit that sky high dinger.
I didn't get to see, but I heard there was a giant standing O for Aramis yesterday, and even if the guy's not 100%, it's fabulous to have him back in the line-up.
So the Cubs are now 2 games out in a division where 5 teams are within 3.5 games.
Crazy.
Keep the W's coming, guys.
