Reply #3: I Said No, But Not 'Cuz He'll Cool Off [View All]

[ProfessorGAC]

Lee is a wonderful person as well as a player. When he got a suggestion to open his stance and step toward the plate instead of having a square stance and stepping forward, he said "OK, i'll try it." I think that's made a huge difference in his mechanics and he can get to the outside pitch now. I see him staying really solid for the rest of the season.

But, the Cubs don't have enough high OBP guys in front of him. If nobody is on, RBI's don't happen. I think he'll end up in the top 7 or so of RBI's, but still might win the batting title. Pujols will probably pass him in homers too, but Lee will be up near the top of that too.

So, while i don't see a huge cool off, i don't think he can win the Triple Crown.
