The Giants are such a terrible baseball franchise. I don’t blame even a third tier outfielder for not wanting to settle with going there.

		<description><![CDATA[As a Cubs&#039; fan, I have great respect for Soriano.  Nobody plays harder or works harder on the entire team.  His defense is VASTLY improved this season.  He has yet to commit an error, his range factors and other defensive metrics are all at or above average, and he takes much better routes to balls.  Working with Dave McKay has proven to be huge for his defense.  And he is still productive.  He&#039;s over 20 HR and 70 RBI already.  The only reason he isn&#039;t going to SF is because he has 10/5 rights and doesn&#039;t want to go.  He was nearly dealt before the deadline, and he said no.  He doesn&#039;t figure to be part of the future, so I understand dealing him and eating a lot of his contract, but he is productive and is not the liability he has been defensively since he broke into the bigs with NYY]]></description>
