ChicagoSports.com wrote:Cubs catcher Geovany Soto has gone from overlooked to perhaps being the starter in the final week of the National League Central race.
Including Wednesday's game, in which he hit a homer, Soto is 10-for-19 with three doubles in five starts. His performance apparently has earned the rookie the nod over veteran Jason Kendall for some of the remaining nine games.
"We could use a little power down in the bottom part of our order," manager Lou Piniella said. "This young man has the ability to supply it."
Piniella said there was "no reason" not to expect Soto to catch more.

Count me in.
