The Jorge Soler storm has passed (why, yes, I did try too hard on that one). News broke this morning that Soler signed a three-year, $43 million deal with the San Francisco Giants, ending the possibility that he’d end up as the righty power bat to balance a lefty-heavy lineup. In one sense, that’s a big deal for an aging, one-dimensional player who exacerbates the Red Sox’ defensive issues. But nevertheless, he would have made the 2024 Red Sox better, and at some point the Red Sox brass needs to stop making risk aversion their number one priority.
