Jorge Soler News
Miami Marlins outfielder Jorge Soler launched a grand slam to cap off his club's 8-0 win over the Padres on Saturday night. His 405' shot to left field in the top of the ninth was his first slam of his career, and fourth long ball of the year, as he also added a double to finish the game going 2-for-5. Soler has had a slow start to his debut season with the Marlins by hitting just .178 with eight runs and 12 RBI through 27 games, but he's beginning to pick up some steam at the dish. The power has always been there for the 30-year-old, it's just a matter of how much of a hit his batting average will take to provide the counting numbers.
Miami Marlins outfielder Jorge Soler is not in the starting lineup for his team's Friday night game against the San Diego Padres. Soler will get the night off as his club gears up to kick off a weekend series in San Diego. The Marlins will roll out Jon Berti in left field in place of Soler. Soler is hitting just .167 with three homers, eight RBI, and seven runs through 96 at-bats. The 30-year-old slugger should presumably be back in the lineup on Saturday.
Miami Marlins outfielder Jorge Soler is batting leadoff in the team's season opener against Logan Webb and the San Francisco Giants on Friday. This will be the Marlins debut for Soler, who signed a three-year deal with the team in March. Soler had an up-and-down season in 2021, but he capped it with a World Series MVP honor. Even though he batted just .223/.316/.432 throughout the 2021 season, he had some elite peripheral power stats, including a 117.9 mph max exit velocity that ranked in the 99th percentile. Unfortunately Soler has a rough track record against Friday's starter, Logan Webb, as he's gone 0-for-6 with five strikeouts against him over his career.

Jorge Soler was a letdown in 2020 for those who were expecting an encore to his breakout 2019 season. He exploded two years ago when he slashed .265/.354/.569 with an AL-best 48 home runs and 117 RBI. His 2020 season was marred by a lingering oblique strain that required two trips to the injured list and forced him to miss 17 games. He finished the year with a .228 batting average and .768 OPS to go along with eight HRs and 24 RBI. We can throw out most of 2020 due to the nagging oblique issue that took away nearly a third of his season. However, we can hang our hats on his Statcast profile, which looked strikingly similar to his banner 2019 season. Soler's Exit Velocity (92.5) and Hard Hit rate (51.1%) were both in the top seven percent of the league for the second consecutive year. His 18.9 % Barrel rate was in the 99th percentile as well after ranking in the top two percent in 2019. Soler's power is real but so was his 34.5 K%. He's also had issues staying healthy throughout his career so that needs to be considered. Despite injury risk and strikeout concerns, Soler should be locked in as the cleanup hitter for the Royals. 40 to 45 home run upside is well worth his current ADP of 146.
