A Case for Re-signing Jorge Soler and Clarifying Adam Duvall’s 2022

The Braves struck oil at the deadline, acquiring much needed depth in the lineup adding Adam Duvall (.850 OPS) and Eddie Rosario (.903 OPS). Joc Pederson has faded some and his defense remains questionable at best, but there’s no one that has made a larger impact on the Braves offense than Jorge Soler.

We all knew Jorge Soler had light-tower power. In 2019, Soler carried a .922 OPS and smacked 48 HRs, mostly serving as the DH for the Kansas City Royals. However, what most looked over (likely due to a mediocre BA) was his ability to take a walk.
