He's a current beast

One will be turned into a LFer...... likely Rizzo..... maybe a third baseman. Fat dudes have played the OF before. Ask Dunn and Manny Ramirez.

I wouldn't say serious power from Soler. 20+ yeah, but not serious. To me serious power is 30+. Soler is a stud though. Potential 25-25 guy. He's off to just as good a start to 2013 as Vogelbach

[doseofreality100]

If he hits 30+ HRs in Kane County (which is very likely) with a .300+ BA, people can't ignore that. Why he isn't talked about more is beyond me. He hit .320 with 17 HRs in 250 or so ABs last year. That is VERY impressive. Granted it was in short-season A ball, but still. He hasn't skipped a beat at the start of this year. I'm hoping he ends the year in Daytona. Then in 2014 starts there and ends in Tennessee. Then hopefully by 2015-2016 he'll be on the Cubs, hitting .295 with 38 Hrs.

Are you serious? You don't just trade a .320+ hitting, 30+ HR bashing player for a measly catcher. Last I checked the Cubs have 3 on the team as we speak. Rizzo can shift to LF when Soriano is traded or his contract expires and V-bach can take over first. He is off to a fast start this year and on his way to repeating last year's insane numbers and you want to trade him. IMO in terms of Cubs prospects Vogelbach should be #2, behind Baez. He could be a better hitting Prince Fielder-type player

[doseofreality100]

This guy needs to hurry up. He is looking like he'll flat out rake in the bigs. He's losing weight too. granted still a chub but so is Prince Fielder. If V-bach pans out he'll be a future .290-.300 hitter bashing 35-40 bombs a year. It's VERY early in the season, but he's already hitting like .350 in kane county. Anyone here of a position change yet? With Rizzo at 1B Vogelbach is kind of in a predicament. If they trade him I'll be pissed. Put him in LF, or put Rizzo out there.

no room for him on the cubs need to trade him we a have rizzo we can get a good catcher for him thats what we really need
