Soriano Doesn't Do Little Things, But Mostly He's Latin
Written by wrigleyville   
Friday, 02 May 2008
Do you know what Alfonso Soriano's problem is? HendryIsClueLess at TCR sure does: Soriano is a typical latin lolly gagger that (sic) thinks hitting HRs when it doesnt (sic) matter mean more than doing the little things to win games. He doesnt (sic) even sprint for flyballs in the gap. Hendry and the scouts should have known, instead of just looking at his stats for a last place team (Nats). So, to recap: 1. he's latin, 2. a lollygagger - and a latin one at that, 3. he hits home runs when they don't matter (while latin), and 4. he doesn't do the little things (like Theriot, presumably, who is white). One and two, on their face, are simply racist - a word that has never been used on this site. But it is what it is. As for four, I'll forgive him some of the little things as long as he does the big things, such as carry the team to the playoffs - as he did last September. But we're really here to talk about No. 3. Of Soriano's 33 home runs in 2007, here is how they break down: 1. He hit 13 with the score tied, surely a function of his many leadoff homers. But on each of the 13, he gave the Cubs the lead. Do those "matter," Mr. HendryIsClueLess? 2. He hit seven while the Cubs were behind. Of those, two tied the game and two put the Cubs ahead. Do those "matter"? On the other three, the Cubs lost the game. Presumably, he should have worked in a sacrifice bunt or a dive in the dirt to appear scrappy. 3. He hit 13 while the Cubs were ahead. Of those, five came with the Cubs up by one run and another five came with the Cubs ahead by two runs. Presumably, the extra runs provided by Soriano's homers were not needed and do not "matter." Again, he should have found a way to do something little, like rescue a kitten from a tree. Or needlepoint a pillow for a senior citizen. That would have been nice.
