2007 Cubs December Report Card

Good
Soriano

Bad
2nd Base - after going thru like 12 second baseman last year, we sign 2 more in this offseason (for sake of argument, I'm counting DeRosa and Soriano as 2-bagsmen).

Soriano in center

Lofton would have been a great understudy for Felix the Pie.

Theodore Roosevelt Lilly for $10mil

Ugly
Aardsma for Cotts

Marquis for $7mil

Cliff Floyd

No closer

Grade: D

Basically what happened in the pitching area, is a bunch of MLB teams let Scott Boras set the market value for pitching this offseason, simply based on who his priority is at any given time. This is why Lilly gets $10mil and Zito will get $14mil.
