Fantasy Impact:

The Cubs were high on Soriano, willing to pay $4 million for less than a full season of his services. This gave owners a reason to believe he would ultimately end up in a late-inning role with the club, with the potential of him becoming Chicago's closer. Since joining the team, the veteran has struggled immensely, and it looks like this DL stint will end any chance of him contributing significantly this fantasy season.
