Re: Nationals add Soriano

At first I wanted him, but what the Nationals are paying him is crazy.

Re: Nationals add Soriano

Ok you got me TexasDave. I admit that was just my gut feel without looking at the real numbers.

Anyway, counting on LaRoche, Werth, Zimmerman to continue producing just seems riskier than Votto, Bruce, Phillips. And the Reds offense gets immensely better this year replacing Stubbs with Choo and Rolen with Frazier, not to mention a full year of a healthy Joey Votto.

I like our new offense better than the Nats and I think we'll score more runs this year.
