It is not a matter of getting used to the spot in the lineup, but the type of pitches he sees. He is going to hack no matter what, so he need the heart of the order behind him.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I don't buy that. If you know and I know that Soriano is going to be hacking no matter what, don't you think that every pitcher and catcher in baseball know that Soriano is going to be hacking no matter what? And if that's the case, why pitch differently to him no matter where he's batting in the order?
