Oldcrow1945 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Just an FYI......He hit .316 and lead team USA with 9 RBI in the World classic. I'm really excited to have this guy at 3rd base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Masters Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I too am excited about this guy. If you talk to Cubs fans, they were really upset about losing this guy. Derosa can flat out hit and play D. I'd like it even better if the Tribe were playing him at 2B, where he is even better on D. But I guess I'll just have to wait until CLE finally moves Jhonny P to 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich4eagle Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 DeRosa is a solid player. He will be good but is not an elite player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides being a great hitter, Pinella said he was a great leader and probably the most repsected guy in the clubhouse. I got the feeling from Pinella that they made the trade more for Derosa than they did their own organization. So he'd start ever day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalBrownsFan Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 DeRosa did play well in the WBC, here's hoping he can solidfy the 3B position this year and play well. GOOOOOOOOOO TRIBE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
