Well considering the offensive outbursts the Cubs have suddenly found early this season some fans have asked me about that possibility. Well my answer is NO, we are not better off without Soriano, he just needs to be used better in the lineup when he is due to return on Thursday. NO MORE LEADOFF!!!! Reed Johnson has proven to all of us Cub fans that he can leadoff. While Theriot is not necessarily the answer in the 2 spot. I think that Fukudome should be in the 2 spot in the order. Think of it this way it will be the complete opposite of what the Cubs have been known for. The Cubs have always been known for free swinging strikeout batters with power, sounds like Soriano. Theres nothing wrong with him being like that, he just needs to be utilized better. Lou is a good, smart baseball man. He will figure it out eventually if not right after Soriano comes back.
