Steve Stone says that the sudden jump in his numbers has something to do with a change in "vitamins".

(don't shoot the messenger)
Steve Stone is a blow hard jerk off. I'm no Soto fan by any means, in fact I don't like him much at all. It's just that Steve Stone will open his mouth and say some ridiculous controversial statement about pretty much anything.
I listen to him all the time and don't think he says things to be controversial at all. IMO he provides some of the best, most rational and impartial baseball analysis out there.

His analysis of the Cubs, specifically Kerry Wood is some of the most clearly biased I've heard, and I've watched countless Cubs/Cards games involving Al Hrabowsky as the color guy.

Why would he be biased against Soto?

Not Soto specifically but given the way his tenure ended with the Cubs, I could see him harboring a ton of ill-will towards the organization.

I think he is biased against Cubbies in general. I could be wrong though.

He was critical of the Cubs when he worked for the Cubs....he got fired for it. He works for the Sox now....and is critical of the Sox.

I just think he tells it like it is.
