Soriano at 2nd base would be an absolute train wreck. He seems to field about 50% of slow rolling balls in the outfield grass cleanly, imagine rockets in the infield. And I can't imagine him turning a double play right now. Do we want Carlos Lee taking Soriano and his gimpy legs out on a double play as well? He's not good anywhere, but LF is the safest place for him right now. He had the talent and range to be a good SS/2B coming up, but he has zero fundamentals fielding groundballs, so finally he was moved to the outfield. Now he doesn't have that range and hasn't played there in years, it would be really bad.
