Alfonso Soriano could be looking at a six-week vacation after getting nailed in the hand by a Jeff Bennett pitch Wednesday night during the second inning of the Chicago Cubs 7-2 win over the Atlanta Braves.X-rays revealed a break in the superstar leadoff hitter's left hand, leaving him in a splint for three weeks.
On the bright side, this is Ryan Dempster's awesome amazing world, and we are all just riding the dream. The Cubs closer-turned-starter is undefeated (8-0) this season at Wrigley Field and 8-2 overall. He fanned eleven last night and lowered his ERA to 2.81.

There goes the world series! The earth is going to implode!
They'll be fine. He's such a fast healer, I'm sure he'll be back in four weeks.

Soriano's wrist breaks - major flooding in Illinois. Conclusion: Soriano controls the weather, and the broken hand has hampered him.
