Most players who have established themselves at a position aren't going to be happy moving positions, in the end he moved and stopped complaining about it. Most guys who hit a lot of HR's strike out a lot, its a tradeoff that is generally worth it. Soriano has 218 SB, 62 CS for a 78% success rate which is a good rate. His teammates almost always compliment on him being a great guy to have on the team, I don't think he's really all that selfish and I'd take him over Menchkins myself.
