AddisonStSox Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 04:05 PM) Ever see Manny Ramirez? To quote Paul DePodesta: "The variance between the best and worst fielders on the outcome of a game is a lot smaller than the variance between the best hitters and worst hitters." I'm in the middle of an Albert Belle-esque study on how many more runs Alfonso Soriano brings to the team with his bat than grants the opposition with his glove. Methinks he is far more valuable in terms of runs scored than his defense would ever hint at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Let's do a "Cubs trade" to get Soraino w/o trading BMac My proposal Gload, Pods, Rogo, and a PTBN for Soriano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Angels guys on ESPN radio out here are already crying in their beer. I'd like to see a Soriano package bring us Figgins and Shields. That would be epic. But not likely after this MacDougal deal.

My reasoning is that it might be for a pitcher, and no AL team wants NL pitching. Soriano and Garcia/Vazquez for Zito? Iffy move for next year, but as long as we are speculating...

I'd like to see a Soriano package bring us Figgins and Shields. That would be epic. But not likely after this MacDougal deal. If that happened the deal would ultimately look like this Soriano, BMac, and prolly 2 solid spects for Figgins and Shields Of course, im just guessing what we would give up for Soriano but I would be pretty upset if we give the goods to get Soriano and then flip him for just that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
