Soriano takes the cake for dumbest Hendry move ever.

Easily. It was pretty to see at the time that there was no way the latter half of the deal would be even remotely acceptable. With Bradley, there was a chance he put together a couple years like he had in Texas. It was only 2/20 or 3/30.

Vintage SOI...

Not one of you had a problem with the signing when it was made, and not one of you had anything to say when Soriano was on fire in April and May.

Enough with your wisdom.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Care to go find the Soriano signing thread? I think you will find there were SEVERAL of us who were unhappy with the deal.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

You go find it, Ace...

Then go find all the other threads where you took a position, were proved wrong, and never, ever mentioned it again.

FYI...when all you do is shit on every move that's made, you're going to be right from time to time.

<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

When I take a stand on something and am proved wrong, it's ALWAYS mentioned again by someone.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

When I do...I mention it myself.

Try it sometime, and stop shitting on every move as a matter of rote.

Welcome back Rapp, glad you could come back and take a dump on board. I remember that there were many of us who weren't happy about the Soriano signing. I was one that was against it all the way. My main point was that it was ignorant to sign someone whose only attribute was speed and power to a ridiculously expensive deal into his late 30s. Speed and power are the two attributes that usually deteriorate after age 32. My argument was also based on his pathetic defense, because at the time we were planning on placing him in CF. Regardless of how happy anyone was it was a stupid, shortsighted singing and Hendry should suffer the repercussions. And I'm not even a Hendry basher.

Absolutely, I've always remain consistent with my dislike of Soriano and his contract. The fact the he plays two great months each season and 4 hideous ones make him even worth less. And he's going to get worse as the years go by.

Soriano takes the cake for dumbest Hendry move ever.

Easily. It was pretty to see at the time that there was no way the latter half of the deal would be even remotely acceptable. With Bradley, there was a chance he put together a couple years like he had in Texas. It was only 2/20 or 3/30.

Vintage SOI...

Not one of you had a problem with the signing when it was made, and not one of you had anything to say when Soriano was on fire in April and May.

Enough with your wisdom.

Care to go find the Soriano signing thread? I think you will find there were SEVERAL of us who were unhappy with the deal.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

You go find it, Ace...

Then go find all the other threads where you took a position, were proved wrong, and never, ever mentioned it again.

FYI...when all you do is shit on every move that's made, you're going to be right from time to time.

When I take a stand on something and am proved wrong, it's ALWAYS mentioned again by someone.

Has anyone ever smiled with a turd in their mouth?
I picture a pissed-off Amazon bitch; uncontrollable, disobedient, boldly resisting any kind of emotional shackles...angrily begging for more ejaculate. -KB

Showing your teeth is a sign of weakness in primates. Whenever someone smiles at me, all I see is a chimpanzee begging for its life. - Dwight

I think he might be correct though, he looks far more comfortable batting LH over the past couple weeks. His LH swing is looking much more like his RH swing.

His double to the wall last night was pretty. And he continues to take BB like crazy.

If he can continue to draw walks, see lots of pitches and hit for some power, I'll be extremely pleased with Bradley. I just haven't seen much power yet.
