Jorge Soler Out Of Saturday's Lineup
7 years agoKansas City Royals outfielder Jorge Soler is sitting on Saturday versus the White Sox. Soler is tagged to be the team's starting right fielder, but he'll be replaced by Paulo Orlando in the second game of the season. While Orlando isn't much competition, Soler's track record doesn't buy him a very long leash as a starter. The fact that the team is benching him already should be concerning to all owners who bet on Soler to be a sleeper this season. It could indicate that a platoon could be in the mix right from the get-go.
