Cubs MVP For The Week



The Chicago Cubs ended the week at 3-3, Derek Lee had a great week with 10 hits including 6 back to back hits between Saturday and Sundays game, he also had 3 home runs and 4 runs batted in, not to mention he played outstanding defense but thats a given. He hit home run to break the 2-2 tie in todays game vs Astros and that home run would eventually be the run that would help push the Cubs to victory. Which is why I chose D-Lee as the Cubs Mvp for this week.

Other players also shined this week including Kosuke Fukudome who had 8 hits, 1 home run and 5 runs batted in, in his first week with the Chicago Cubs. Kerry Wood pitched lights out, out of the bullpen and got his first 3 saves as a closer.

Alfonso Soriano who seemed to be struggling to get a hit, blasted a home run today hopefully ending the beginning of season slump he was in. The Cubs fly to Pittsburgh tonight and play the Pirates tomorrow Lilly will get the start, the game is set to start at 12:35.
