I know why you are saying that, but I believe it's dead wrong. I believe we would have needed Sori to go on a prolonged hot streak to get to the playoffs anyway. If he's out, that has no chance of happening. Murton's not going to get more play time, if that's what you are thinking. Lou hates Murton, it's pretty clear. Playing Murton, if Soriano out, isn't going to do much to replace him. This team needs some power, Murton isn't really going to provide that.
