I would take the last 3 years of Soria over the last 3 years of Cain. That’s my opinion and I’ll stick with it. You want to gloat because a guy is pitching injured, then who is the one that really looks idiotic?

But after that he’ll go right back to perfect dominance, right? After all, you’d take his career over that of almost any starting pitcher. And if that career amounted to just four years of less than 70 innings a year, you’d end up looking pretty idiotic.

if not giving the job outright to crow, at least give him a chance to see what he can do.

Well, from all reports Soria is still the closer….stubborn Yost refuses to yank him from the role…hopefully it’s just lip service…the job should be Crow’s.

He wasn’t. Playing for 2012, so I’ll let them fight it out this year and hope my 5 dollar Coleman comes through.

I would have grabbed Aaron Crow…if he was out there.

Soria has hardly thrown his curve all season, and hasn’t been ahead in a count in almost as long. He’s definatly hurt.

I grabbed Louis Coleman in my keeper league as Soria insurance.

He’s obviously hurt and trying to pitch through it. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him shelved and/or operated upon by the all-star break.
