News and Notes

Baker could see time at second base against left-handed pitching, the Chicago Sun-Times reports. ''For sure, against left-handed pitching, we can put him in the lineup,'' manager Lou Piniella said. ''He can play first, second, third and both [corner] outfields. He can pop the ball a little, too.'' Recommendation: It's likely left-handed-hitting second baseman Mike Fontenot will sit against most lefties, so Baker should see opportunities there first and foremost. |
