Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2668465HELLLLLL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Derek Lee, Aramis Ramirez, Alfonso Soriano.. fear them? I think so
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!We got Alfonso Soriano, the best free agent in the market and one of the best hitters in the game. Go Cubs go! Go Cubs go! Hey Chicago what do you say? The Cubs are gonna win today!
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! ALRIGHT BRO LET'S GO CUBS. Lifetime Cubs fan. Now we just need Carlos Lee and some pitching lol
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! I don't want Carlos Lee. The Cubs are close to an agreement with Drew but I want the Cubs to resign Pierre or sign Gary Mathews Junior, trade Murton, Marshall, and Guzman to the Jays for Vernon Wells. Sign Barry Zito and Jason Schmidt. Lineupierre/Mathews Jr.SorianoLeeRamirezWellsBarrettJonesCedenoPitcherPitching Staff:Carlos ZambranoBarry ZitoJason SchmidtMark PriorRich Hill
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! Sign Zito and Schmidt....Good one. You have a nice lineup, but don't get out of hand. The Dodgers are shopping, I expect one of the big two pitchers to go there.
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! Well the Cubs signed the two biggest free agent bats on the market so I wouldn't be suprised if they would also sign the two biggest free agent pitchers.
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! Blahh, I really wanted the phillies to get Soriano.. That would have been sweeeet.

The thing about highering him back, is that Soriano is used to that lead off batter spot, so how well do you see him doing from the 2 whole? I think pretty good, considering he will have Lee behind him, they don't want to just walk him and give Lee an RBI oppurtunity. Plus the 2 whole allows a batter to be much more free swinging, he doesn't have to see as many pitches and look at the pitcher as much as the leadoff batter does. That lineup would be awesome. That Wells trade would not happen though, I don't believe the Blue Jays would give him up for all three of those guys. He is one of the top 2 or 3 center fielders in the game, and I don't believe the three of them together can help that team as much as he can.
Re: CUBS GOT SORIANO!!!!!!!!!! Do you think Juan Pierre will change his mind and stay now we have soriano? It's pretty crowded in the OF with murton and jones. I see jones as a must-start. Murton, maybe, he can improve.

No one competent wants to play for the Cubs.2. The Cubs don't have infinite amounts of money.Also, I don't think it matters who the Cubs sign. At best they will make the playoffs.
