This thread isn't meant to be about Soriano at <i>all</i>. It's about a parallel universe where Soriano or at least his Cubs contract doesn't even exist. It's last winter and we don't have any gazillion dollar/100-year contract for any LF. From that point forward, how much difference would this season have been without that budget item?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I think I'm missing a piece of the puzzle. Who is our LFer? Or do we have to pick up a LFer in the 2008 offseason? Or is it Jake Fox?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Let's say it's Jake...we're not expecting much out of him and we think we'll probably need help in left...then Jake turns out to be Jake...he surprises us. We failed to make a deal for some other expensive free agent over the winter...we're gonna start the year with Jake and hold our breath. The season unfolds otherwise, as it has. Lots of injuries...bullpen troubles...plenty of guys struggling to produce on offense...a big hole in the middle of the infield...BUT...this huge pile of money that was never spent because Soriano doesn't exist.

So we're players in the trade market last winter and before the non-waiver trading deadline. We have a shot at anyone that goes on the auction block...same shot the Cards had.
