Jorge Soler Might Be Turning The Corner
6 years agoKansas City Royals outfielder Jorge Soler might be figuring it out. A popular sleeper coming into the season, Soler's chance to finally have everyday playing time without question meant that maybe he could be the guy everyone has longed for him to be. However, a slow start filled with many mighty swings that produced nothing of note made quite a few folks dump him quickly. That looks to be changing. Soler has recorded two straight two-hit games, and he's also homered in both as well. He's still striking out too much (10 days since his last no-strikeout game), but he's hitting the ball hard and getting some lift on it now. If he can continue to improve his contact numbers, the power should follow.
