Alfonso says: Sori, I ain't playing OF

[General]

Alfonso Soriano said he has no intention of playing outfield for the Nationals. "I'm going to play second base," Soriano said.
"I don't think they want me to play the outfield," he said. "I think that if they traded for me, it's to play second base. Obviously I have the control. Of course I'm not going to play the outfield." It looks like the Nationals are going to have serious issues if Jose Vidro is healthy enough to start. They could trade Nick Johnson and try Vidro at first base. Vidro's legs probably wouldn't allow him to play left field. Moving Soriano on to another team could be a possibility if nothing can be worked out. Even if he gets to play second base, Soriano will be less than thrilled to go from a top hitter's park to a top pitcher's park in his contract year

If he wouldn't move for the yankees he's not moving for anybody else as he wanted to stay w/ the Yanks more than anything.

Thank you Jim Bowden, for basically just alienating Jose Vidro in every way and almost forcing yourself to get rid of him.

You know, the current longest-tenured National/Expo.

The best player on the team.

The team leader.

Yeah. **** you Jim Bowden. **** you good and **** you hard,.

Trade Nick Johnson to play Jose Vidro.

I can see Bowden doing that.

soriano should just be happy he has a job. though he would be brutal in the outfield as well, so its not like he would really be an improvement on anyone in the outfield.
