Alfonso Soriano

Clapp, you bring up a good point with the everything went wrong last year. Fukudome and Soto had had historically bad luck last year, with Soriano playing on one leg, and all of the time Aramis missed, Fontenot laying an egg, and Badley doing his table setter act. While only Wells and Lee could be considered bright spots . Luck usually has a way of evening itself out from year to year. If we get a real centerfielder we will improve greatly simply by being a better defensive club. Fukudome is one of the best defensive rightfielders in the game, while he was a bit below average in center. I still don't like going into the season with Theriot and Fontenot up the middle, maybe Baker is the real deal but I hate relying on him.
