But I would rather see him start in Triple A getting ABs than on the bench with the Cubs. Ace sorry I havent sent the Picture yet. My old camera doesnt like my new computer but I will figure it out. maybe they are showcasing Colvin for a trade in the future?

Fuld is a better defender, but not by much on the corners. If Colvin can hit significantly better off the bench, it's possible he'd make it over Fuld. Not saying it's going to happen, but I do think this is the thinking that's going on behind the scenes.

Maybe some platoon-age in center field? So you think Colvin may take a spot on the roster? Maybe some platoon-age in center field?
