Alfonso Soriano. Eight years. $135 million. Chicago Cubs. Rosenthal has the scoop, though he doesn’t explicitly say that the Cubs are going to give him that money, just that that’s what he’s after.
As a Brewers fan, I’m thrilled that Hendry is blowing his wad on Sori. Could be a great Cubs offense for a couple of years, but that can’t leave a whole lot to patch other holes.
UPDATE: It’s a little more official, and a little more expensive.
