No way they turn Soria into a starter now.

Heck, I think its more likely they convert Holland into a starter than Soria. I wrote about converting holland the other day on my blog. I don't think you can count on Soria coming back. Everything I've read about two time tj recipients is its about a 60% percent chance, and even then they aren't 100%. But, comeback chances are much better for relievers.

Though I have read about Isgrinhausen who came back from 3 TJ surgeries.
