Jorge Soler Fantasy Stats

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler is off to a strong start to the season in the power department. Through 18 games, Soler is slashing .231/.342/.508 with five home runs and a league-leading 18 RBI. The All-Star slugger is currently serving a four-game suspension, but will be back in the mix soon. With that being said, now might be the best time to grab Soler before he returns to the field and continues tearing the cover off the ball. The veteran slugger isn't going to hit for average, and he's going to strike out a ton. The 34-year-old has crushed over 200 career homers and is looking like a sneaky add for fantasy managers seeking power right now.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler's suspension by Major League Baseball has been reduced to four games, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. Soler will start serving his four-game suspension on Wednesday night against the Atlanta Braves, and it will run through Sunday's series finale against the San Diego Padres. The league initially gave Soler a seven-game suspension for his role in a fight when the team faced the Braves last week. Fantasy managers must make sure to remove Soler from their lineups for the rest of the week. Through his first 65 at-bats with the Angels in 2026, Soler is hitting .231 (15-for-65) with five home runs, a league-high 18 RBI, and 13 runs scored in 18 games played. The 34-year-old Cuban slugger will probably never help fantasy managers in batting average, but his power remains intriguing when he's clicking.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder/designated hitter Jorge Soler recently went on a stretch where he blasted a home run in three consecutive games, which was also part of a longer six-game hit streak, putting himself back on the fantasy radar. A couple of games in which he's gone 0-for-7 since then have surely left a sour taste in the mouths of fantasy managers who snapped him up off the waiver wire, but this is what you can expect from a player who owns a career barrel rate of 13.1 percent with only a 70.7 percent contact rate. Looking at career rates, though, the right-handed slugger is typically a slow starter, so perhaps now is the time to exercise patience, as the former All-Star holds a career slash line of .228/.312/.421 and wRC+ of 98 in the first half compared to .265/.360/.532 and 137 wRC+ in the second half. For now, interested managers can scoop the 34-year-old up in over 60 percent of Yahoo! leagues; just know that the potential power production could come at the expense of batting average, at least in the near term until he gets rolling.

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Jorge Soler has been suspended for seven games for brawling with Atlanta Braves right-hander Reynaldo Lopez on Tuesday night, according to Jeff Passan of ESPN. Soler took exception to a pitch up and in from Lopez in the fifth inning and charged the mound before throwing punches in a benches-clearing brawl. Until Soler's appeal is heard by the league, he'll be eligible to play for the Angels, including in Wednesday's contest against Atlanta at Angels Stadium. The 32-year-old veteran right-handed power hitter is slated to start in right field and bat cleanup for the Halos in Wednesday's series finale against Braves right-hander Grant Holmes. To begin his second season in Anaheim, Soler heads into Wednesday's action sporting a .220 average (9-for-41) with two home runs, 10 RBI, and seven runs scored in 12 games played. Keep Soler in your starting lineups for now until his suspension kicks in.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler (back) will not return from the 60-day injured list for the team's season-ending series against the Houston Astros this weekend. Soler has been out since July 24 with inflammation in his lower back. Although the 33-year-old ramped up baseball activities earlier this month, time has run out on a potential 2025 comeback. Soler has been on the injured list twice this year with back problems, limiting him to 82 games. The former All-Star took 315 trips to the plate this season and batted an underwhelming .215/.293/.387 with 12 HRs and 34 RBI. He's in line to return to the Angels in 2026 in the last season of a three-year, $42 million contract. Soler signed that deal with the San Francisco Giants heading into 2024, but he has changed hands twice since then. The Atlanta Braves traded Soler to the Angels last October. The first season of the Soler-Angels union didn't go according to plan for him or the team.

The Los Angeles Angels transferred outfielder Jorge Soler (back) to the 60-day injured list on Monday. Soler, who went on the 10-day IL with lower-back inflammation on July 24, will not be eligible to come back until the last week of the season. While the 33-year-old recently started ramping up baseball activities, he hasn't made enough progress to return over the next two weeks and may not play again in 2025. Soler's back problems have limited him to 82 games and 315 plate appearances this year. The former All-Star slugger has struggled to a .215/.293/.387 line with 12 homers, 34 RBI, and 31 runs scored in his age-33 campaign.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler (back) is making progress in his recovery from inflammation in his lower back. Soler has begun increasing activities in the field, including shagging fly balls, while taking batting practice on "several" occasions and hitting off a high-velocity machine, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports. Soler has been on the 10-day injured list since July 24, but the team is hopeful that he'll return sometime in September. The 33-year-old slugger has played in 82 games and slumped to a .215/.293/.387 line with 12 home runs and 34 RBI in 315 plate appearances.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler (back) is with the team in Texas and has begun limited baseball activities. Along with running and throwing, Soler is taking on-field batting practice for the first time since he landed on the 10-day injured list with lower-back inflammation on July 24. The 33-year-old has gone on the IL twice this season with back issues and struggled to a .215/.293/.387 line with 12 homers, 34 RBI, and 31 runs scored over 82 games and 315 plate appearances. While there's no timetable for Soler's return, he should have a chance to come back in 2025 if he continues to progress.

Los Angeles Angels manager Ray Montgomery said Monday that outfielder Jorge Soler (back) will continue to receive testing after being placed on the injured list for lower back inflammation. This is the 33-year-old's second stint on the IL this season due to back issues. Montgomery said that Soler does not have a timetable for his return, but he is staying optimistic that he will return at some point this season. Soler is running out of time to return and have a fantasy impact. He was in the midst of a down offensive season before going on the IL, slashing .215/.293/.387 with 12 home runs and 34 RBI in 315 plate appearances. 26-year-old Bryce Teodosio should continue to see playing time in Soler's absence. Teodosio showed high batting average, power, and speed skills in his time with Triple-A Salt Lake, so he could be worth a look in deep five-outfielder leagues.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler (back) still hasn't resumed baseball activities since he landed on the 10-day injured list on July 26 (retroactive to the 24th) with inflammation in his lower back. Soler has twice spent time on the IL with back problems during a difficult 2025 for the former All-Star, who has had one of his worst offensive seasons. The 33-year-old has slumped to a .215/.293/.387 line with 12 homers, 34 RBI, and 31 runs scored in 315 plate appearances. To his credit, Soler's bat showed major signs of life in July before he aggravated his back, as he went 11-for-42 with a .955 OPS, four homers, and eight RBI in 15 games. With Soler down, the Angels have shifted Jo Adell to right field and plugged in rookie Bryce Teodosio in center.
