Soriano Pulls Up Lame

Following a single, Soriano attempted to sprint from 1st to 3rd; however, while rounding 2nd base he pulled up lame and was clearly in pain. Word is he has a strained quadriceps and will be out for 2-4 weeks.

Bad, bad news for the Cubbies given their recent run. And even worse news for Fantasy Owners trying to ride Soriano during the stretch run. Obviously, bench Soriano in all leagues for the next few weeks, but even upon his return, do not expect much base stealing from him given this injury. If your league's trading deadline has not passed, this might be a good time to scout the rosters and see if you can pick up someone else's solid reserve OF to fill in as best he can in the meanwhile.
