There's power, there's speed, there's contact, there's, you know, there's some swing and miss in there, but that also comes with the power.

But they're athletic.

When you look up and down that lineup...

You know, you're looking at a really athletic lineup, and we saw that in spring training.

We saw guys running around the field and doing pretty good.

So I really like the Cubs lineup.

When you have Dansby hitting eighth, I think that's pretty good.

25 home run guy last year.

So there's some real positives to this lineup.

Yeah, we were laughing walking in.

Boog and I were walking in from the parking lot and we ran into

Tom Ricketts, our owner, said we're going to get all four seasons in one day on opening day, and we just might.

So Matty's going to get the full metal jacket of right field and Wrigley Field today.

It'll be 70, and it's going to be 40 before he's done playing.

So he'll get the whole package today.

No, he can hit.

There's no doubt.

He's one of those guys, when you watch him in spring every day, even in batting practice, there's a flow to his swing and an ability to be on time with a leg kick.

So leg kick is really a difficult thing, but if you can do it and master it, it's great.

If you can't, it can be very difficult to hit that way.
