Ronny, where have you been?

It appears Ronny Cedeno has no intention of slowing down his RBI onslaught. Today, the shortstop/second baseman added 5 more RBI to the 5 he tallied in the three previous games.  And they haven’t been petty.

His two RBI in the eighth inning on Monday gave the Cubs a breathing room lead of 4-1. His first RBI today gave the Cubs a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning and his final four on a grand slam in the eighth iced the 8-1 victory.

If Cedeno continues his clutch hitting, Lou Piniella is going to have some tough lineup decisions to make when Alfonso Soriano returns May 1. The Cubs will have Ryan Theriot, Mark DeRosa, Mike Fontenot and Cedeno all capable of holding down the middle infield.
