According to the news obtained by MLB.com writer Mark Feinsand, the San Francisco Giants signed a contract with one of the remaining big players in the free agent market for US$42 million (approximately NT$1.33 billion) over three years and an additional US$9 million (approximately NT$280 million) in signing bonus. Cuba will hit Jorge Soler, who turns 32 next week, but the team declined to comment.
Soler has played for the Miami Marlins for the past two seasons. Last year, he hit the most 36 home runs on the team. He was selected for the All-Star Game for the first time. He played 137 games in the regular season. His hitting measurements were .250/.341/.512, and his weighted offensive index was ( OPS+) reached 128, helping the team advance to the playoffs. However, during the offseason, he refused to exercise this year’s $13 million player option in the contract and became a free agent.
After the Giants sent Mitch Haniger to the Marlins in exchange for left-hander Robbie Ray, they urgently needed to add a long-hitting right-hander. Soler just fits the need. He should be mainly designated hitter and become the focus of the line. In December last year, the San Francisco giants paid US$113 million over six years (approximately NT$3.57 billion) to introduce South Korean outfielder Lee Jung-hoo, who challenged MLB. However, he is a left-handed player, and his fielding and on-base percentage are more important than slugging.
Since Barry Bonds hit 45 home runs in 2004, no Giants hitter – including Bonds, who stayed with the team for three more years before retiring – can hit 30+ home runs in a single season. Soler may be able to break this pattern. drought.
Although spring training is approaching, MLB’s official website predicts that the Giants will not make any further moves in the short term, but will focus on acquiring another key player in the free agent market, third baseman Matt Chapman. The 30-year-old right-hander posted .240/.329/.461 with 17 home runs with the Toronto Blue Jays last year.
