Soriano caught a red eye flight to New York last night. No deal is official yet, but he's said his goodbyes already and is presumably with the Yankees.
Bleacher Nation has some information that the Cubs save $7M-$12M of the $25M still owed to Soriano and get to choose from either Corey Black (21 years old, A) or Tommy Kahnle (23 years old, AA).
John Sickels ranked Black 12th in the Yankees system, while Kahnle was ranked just outside the top 20.
The fact that the Cubs get any savings AND a player they could possibly use out of this deal is a miracle. They didn't need to trade Soriano, but I think they wanted to for his sake.
