Playing for Frank Robinson, one of the greatest and truly toughest players of all time, could be the best thing that could ever happen to Soriano. Let's face it, the Yankees gave up on him because he strikes out too much and can't field his position adequately. Rangers followed suit. At some point he needs to stop being a selfish player who loves hitting the long ball and put in the work to be a complete player.
Contrast this to a guy like Chipper Jones, who willingly went to LF and then got bounced back to 3B, as and when his team needed. That's why he has an MVP and a lot of playoff experience on his resume. Or how about a guy like Craig Biggio? Is it any wonder the Yankees gave up Soriano (who refused to move positions) to get A-Rod (who moved willingly)?
Soriano needs a swift kick in the butt, so that he can learn what being a winner is all about. Luckily for him, he plays for Frank Robinson, and he'll get exactly what he needs. This is probably the turning point in Soriano's career, and as soon as he gets his head out of its current darkened location and sees some sunshine he just might appreciate that.
Look at Nomar Garciaparra. There was a time when he would sulk over things like this. Now, he recognizes how lucky he is to be playing MLB. He went to 3B and now 1B to try to play and help his team. Kudos to him! Now let's see Soriano follow suit.
