136 Million/8 years.
Those are the numbers that are making me sink into a deep depression. Soriano provides little to no value to our team. He's never been a good fielder, but he's regressed horribly. Not only can't he field, he can't steal bases anymore. And he was brought here to hit the ball. He can't even do that. Honestly, everybody in the world knows that he will flail away at a 2 strike slider low and away. It's embarrassing.
I talked about it in my article (located on the homepage of chicitysports.com) how the Cubs have stated the salary doesn't dictate playing time. However, they need to prove it because Soriano is providing nothing positive to our team. Absolutely nothing! Sure, he'll get hot for a few days (4 hits in 2 days) but then we have to pay double when he goes 2-28.
I'm not saying Tyler Colvin is the 2nd coming of Albert Pujols but give him a shot, he plays great defense and proved that he can smash the ball in the minors and in Spring Training.
Soriano is a good guy, but even he needs to look at himself and admit that he's hurting this team.
