He has sucked all season.

He kinda sucked toward the end of 2008 as well.

I've never thought much of him. He's just a 2 pitch pitcher and he never seems to make do when his stuff isn't good.

He actually didn't suck at all at the end of last year. It just seemed like it because he was so incredibly dominant for the first month+ he was here. But he didn't give up more than 2 earned runs in his last 7 starts of the regular season.

He did walk a bunch of guys though.

That's why I said he "kinda" sucked. He walked 14 people in his final 3 starts in only 15 1/3 innings. He struggled to get out of the 5th inning most of that time and he ended up hurt for a bit right before the playoffs. And we don't need to talk about how average he looked against the Dodgers either.

All, I'm saying is he's not the same guy from most of 2008, and with only 2 pitches, it's not hard to see why he's struggled.

Ah, I interpreted the "kinda" as more exaggeratory. As in "Soriano is kinda sucking the last 2 months".
