Russ,

Soriano will be gone before Opening Day. The Braves can’t afford him and I doubt that he wants to be there knowing that he won’t close. If he is there, that creates too many problems.

JC – Despite the statements from Wren on Soriano not pitching late in games, it would be a stupid strategy. Soriano is clearly a better pitcher than Saito and should be used in higher leverage situations. To demote Soriano to middle relief just because you are pissed that he accepted arbitration would hurt the team. Since he is coming back, how it happened and how much he is paid is irrelevant. Use your best players period!
