Indefinite Leave Of Common Sense

I talked about it Friday.

Alfonso Soriano should be shelved for the remainder of the season.

The Cubs, on the other hand, are having a hard time calling it what it is…a season cut short due to injury. Instead, they’re opting to list Soriano under an indefinite leave of absence. Whatever.

What’s the purpose of bringing a guy back for meaningless baseball games on a bum knee, which has clearly troubled Soriano all season while battling through the most prolonged slump of his career: 20 home runs, 55 RBIs in just 117 games?
