Soriano

Alfonso Soriano gets hurt in a Cubs win last night and it looks like he's going to be gone for about 6 weeks. This should have me horribly depressed, but I'm really not that worried. The Cubs can just call up Hoffpauir from AAA and use him, Edmonds, and Reed Johnson as a platoon for LF and CF. Hoffpauir was hitting real well before he got sent down and, even when he wasn't getting hits, he was having good at-bats. The Cubs have also played well without Soriano in the past. Lee will need to pick it up, though, to keep things going for the team (although he's been hitting in most games of late and has been going either 1-3 or 1-4 with an RBI).
I'm still a little nervous about the pitching, but Dempster's complete game (only 117 pitches or so) last night helps to calm me down. Lily also pitched well the night before (6.2/3 and 3 ER). However, the Cubs need one more starter to get dominant and really take it to another level. I've heard rumors about snagging Sabathia, but I don't know, we'll see.
