Still sucks, all last year and all this year he has sucked, and it is not just his lack of power but he is a defensive liability, has no baseball IQ, tries to pull everything, occassionally has a hit to right but I thosee are balls too far outside to pull.

If he has tried to catch that ball at the fence he could have saved runs, he got to the fence but was off to the side, cut him, eat the salery and at least put someone out there that looks as though he cares, and if Lou won't bench him, find someone wwho will, this is just getting old.

I know I will be pounded foe my remarks, but why?

Neither of them have come anywhere close to reaching the level of ineptitude that is Aaron Miles. They've also both been better than Fontenot.

 

I'm also of the opinion that Soto hasn't been 100% healthy this year.

i still don't think soriano will be on this team for the length of his contract. i think he'll become very unpopular among the fan base and they'll eat most of his contract to have him play for someone else.

 

I agree.

 

You think Hendry would've learned his lesson after the whole Sosa episode but apparently not.

No surprise that Soriano started to regress the moment he put on a Cubs hat.

 

Yeah, he was [expletive] horrible in 2007 and 2008.

 

Oh, wait.

Oh wait what? Did he not regress since he became a cub? He hasn't come close to his numbers that he had as a National. He's had leg injuries that sapped his speed. He was a "supposed" 40/40 guy he hasn't sniffed that here. I don't like him as a player and he's overpaid, the Cubs will be affected by his contract in years to come. Look at his numbers now and imagine how bad he will be 2 years from now and on.
