Braves consider trading Jorge Soler after challenging season

sportingnews.com October 31, 2024, 05:01 PM UTC

The Atlanta Braves may trade Jorge Soler this offseason after a disappointing 2024 season. Soler, who returned midseason from the San Francisco Giants, faces reduced playing time with Ronald Acuña Jr. expected to return. Soler performed well, hitting .243 with nine home runs in 182 plate appearances. However, his role is limited due to defensive issues, making him primarily a designated hitter. MLB Trade Rumors suggests Soler is a likely trade candidate, as several teams could benefit from his right-handed power. His reasonable contract may attract interest from playoff-contending teams.
