A large part of Pierre in Chi-town last year was the first part of the season with the Cubs. He was in a huge slump, but he played better in the 2nd half. If he gets off to a better start, he'll have a big year.

Pierre is a terrible lead off hitter. He has no power, never walks, has a mediocre sb%, plays a so-so CF. He simply is not a top player and is certainly not worth the contract that the Dodgers gave him.
