Now look at their RA9 WAR, Soriano's a full 1 WAR better, he also has a better WPA... fWAR's a good tool but you also have to look at other Metrics than just K's, he also keeps the ball in the park and the fit with this team's framing and defense, he'll get better results. The BB's will be mitigated by his GB rate and defense, and mitigated by our elite framing stealing strikes, perfect fit. Fella.
