| None of this really matters. Atlanta is getting Peavy and most likely Glavine. Atlanta will end up being the team to beat in the NL this season.<--That really pains me to say.

Also, I would give the edge to the Braves over the Mets, if the Braves have Peavy and Glavine on their pitching staff.

| The Mets will likely replace Glavine with Zito. | |

| I'm a huge Cubs homer, and while Soriano will certainly help the team score runs, he's one of the most overrated players in the league.

| Yes, but he is also a 30/30/100/.300 type player. He is pretty balanced, though his defense needs help. He was one of the biggest guys on the market so, even though we overspent, we overspent for talent. | |

| Cubs still suck... I have to listen to EVERYONE around here whine about the Cubs... It's pointless, Soriano or not, root for a better team. Now. Before you get sucked in like everyone here in IL/IA. | |

| Decent pick up guys, but the Cubbies still got a long way to go before we can even utter the word "postseason."

His OBP is terrrrrrible and he doesn't see enough pitches per AB. Still, he'll provide precious slugging for our Cubbies.
