Fine trade Arod then. But get something in return. Soriano is a HUGE dropoff. Demand one of their pitchers for crying out loud. This has to be the most lopsided deal ever.

I agree it is a drop-off, but they dumped the salary of the guy that was preventing them from any other significant upgrades. Soriano is a much, much better acquision than Manny Ramirez would have been. He has an entire career of 40-40 seasons ahead.
