lets blow up the team

Soriano is 24th of all OFs in WAR, of course he's valuable and important to the team.

 

No, he's not valuable. He's not hurting the team, but he's not valuable.

 

It's your stance that Soriano is bringing no value to the team?

Of course he is. He's a productive player.

A player with no value would have a WAR of zero (or negative, if you assign a >0 value to replacement-level production).

 

Soriano's WAR is not <= 0.

Let me clarify, with runners is scoring position, late in the game, the teams realize Soriano is up and throw him a slider a foot off the plate and moreoften than not he strikes out.

I am done

With runners in scoring position and 2 outs: .910 OPS, 6 Ks in 38 PAs

Late and close: .728 OPS, 21 Ks in 63 PAs

 

He's definitely not been as good this year in late and close situations, but he's been excellent with RISP.
