Believe it or not with all things considered I rather have Walker on this team over Soriano.

 

Oh, I would to. I'm not a huge Soriano fan. But the Cubs seem intent on dealing Walker, and they've supposedly been hot after Soriano ever since the first Sosa to NY talks in 2000. If Walker has to go, Soriano would be a solid option (although I'd prefer Marcus Giles or Castillo).

Wow, what a depressing way to start the day. Obviously neither he nor walker are great in the field (although after everything I heard about Walker I have to say I was expecting worse) but at least Todd can get on base at a decent clip. If we sign Soriano, and bat him at the top of the order, we will be welcoming back the days of the meaningless solo homer. Please, please, just say no!

 

BTW, does anyone have a decent idea what Hendry has against Walker? Is it just the "catch the ball" cliche or is he considered to be a problem in the clubhouse as well (last years off-season theme)?
