Thankfully they have a really strong OF defensively who can hopefully minimize the amount of damage he can do out there.
He’ll be 32 by spring training.
He seems like Teo but worse in just about every way. If the Jays weren’t willing to give Teo a long term deal (or even a short term one), I don’t see why they should offer Soler one.

Yeah the Teo deal gives me hope that Soler can be had for cheaper on a 1 year deal now. He definitely has the power the Jays need, and also mashes left handed pitching which the Jays sucked at. Just don't want the Jays to commit more than two years to a guy like that. Could be Kendrys Morales V2.0
