D. Lee is on the D.L.

Having had a night to think about this though, I'm not all that worried.

This isn't last year; there's no Todd Hollandsworth in the Cubs lineup. The bottom two guys in our lineup both hit over .300 in their rookie season last year.

Walker can be counted on for a .300+ average, as can Ramirez. I'm a little worried about Pierre's on base percentage, but I'm confident that Jacque Jones will warm up and be in for a career year. Throw in Barret whose been hitting well ever since the WBC, and you've got a very solid lineup, even without Lee.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still pissed. But I'm not thinking it's the end of the world.
