Great News! theres another team we won't have to worry about not being able to outscore in every game we have against

[Javier]

Red Sox stil have to face the Rangers no?  I wouldnt be shocked if Wilkerson outproduces Soriano next year

lol man..you're just a plain Soriano hater?

[Javier]

lol nah...Im just being realistic here. 

[I Am The Anton]

Soriano really isn't an elite player like most make him out to be. Javi isn't hating on him, hes just beign honest. Soriano=Overrated.





Anton FTW

Anton FTW

He said they improved with Wilkerson. Look at the stats.

[I Am The Anton]

And I agree with him.

Wilkerson is capable of so much more, whereas I see Soriano going no where but down, ESPECIALLY playing in the EXTREME pitchers ballpark the Nationals play in. And don't forget the defensive side of the game. Soriano BLOWS HARD at 2nd, whereas Wilkerson has some speed in the field and is decent with the glove.


P.S.-The Anton & Javi Show FTW!!!

[Javier]

.234/.278/.409- Soriano's stats on the Road last year


Imagine what Wilkerson's stats will look like while playing in Texas?

[I Am The Anton]

Not to mention the fact that Wilkerson is 3-4 million dollars cheaper.And younger.

[Javier]

And in the team's control for the next four years or so.  While Soriano is a FA in one year.
