Soriano is an Expensive Injury

soriano_leg.jpgWhen the Cubs signed Alfonso Soriano to his 8 year 136 million dollar contract in the offseason – Cub fans were pumped up.  I can remember several saying how great Alfonso would be and so on.  My first response to them everytime was…

“Give him a couple months and he’ll be hurt.”

Well, Soriano didn’t wait a couple months to start with the injury bug.  He injured his hamstring during Monday nights game and will be out a few days at least.  We all know how sensitive hamstring injuries can be and they typically take a while to heal – so we’ll see what happens next.  Even if he misses just a few games it’s like a $500,000+ injury.  Now with Aramis, Prior, Wood and Soriano out – this unbelievable team is looking a little depleted, don’t ya think?

    We had a pool going about when Soreyarmo would be hurt. NO ONE picked 4/16. We all gave him at least til May.
