I know a lot of fans will disagree w/me but last season I said Nolan was a better hitter,(hits for avg.)and a better 3rd baseman (gold gloves) as for home runs I think Kris may have him there, they would have to wait till the season ends to judge HR. But I would take Nolan over Kris in a heartbeat. I think Kris is a fine young man. And I know nothing about Nolan,but I would take my chances. By the way I bleed Cubbie Blue. With this statement I am just saying what I think is good for the Cubs.
