Paul Sullivan has a good roundup of the season to date, including this little bit:

The Cubs bench players began calling themselves "The Lemons," though it was the Cubs' regulars who began breaking down like bad cars. Todd Hollandsworth, Todd Walker and Ramon Martinez were forced into everyday roles, depleting the bench. But Walker started out well, and Hollandsworth not only leads the team with a .325 average but does a decent Sosa imitation when sprinting to right field in the first inning.

"The Lemons?" It has to be a joke Jose Macias got started.
