Soriano is looking for a deal similar to Carlos Beltran. I’m a Mets fan. Anyone who has read this blog knows that.  And I readily admit that they overpaid for Beltran, but I still think it was a good deal for them. I also believe that Soriano, is as good, if not a better offensive player. Despite all of that, I still wouldn’t want to give nearly as much money to Soriano as the Mets did to Beltran. We have openings at second AND left, but I just don’t want this guy. He strikes out too much. I think the Mets already have enough stars. One more and that lineup starts looking like the kind of fantasy lineup you see across town. Soriano should get 4 years for 60 mil from a team like the Angels.  I don’t want him. I want role players!
