Cedeno On Fire for Iowa

Baseball Prospectus's Kevin Goldstein notes (sub. req'd) that Ronny Cedeno is doing what he does best: knocking the cover off the ball in triple-A. Cedeno hit 5 home runs in 4 games from June 27-30, and is now hitting .387/.466/.638 in 45 games for Iowa. The last time Cedeno was in Iowa, in 2005, he hit .355/.403/.518, leading to his disappointing audition as the starting shortstop for the big league club in 2006. If the Cubs could find someone to assume Cesar Izturis's overpriced contract, Cedeno may find his way back to the big leagues soon.
