Holy Crap!
ESPN: Wilkerson, Sledge, and PTBNL to the Rangers for Soriano
At first blush, I like the deal. We finally get a legit power bat in the heart of the order. The OBP dropoff from Wilk will hurt, but getting a true leadoff man (Lofton?) could offset that somewhat. I just hope that the salary difference between the two of them doesn't hamper us too much in the search for a pitcher. I'll have MUCH more to say on this tomorrow.
