The Angels are cutting ties with Jorge Soler, designating him for assignment after a disappointing season marked by low batting average, high strikeouts, and declining power — especially against lefties. Once an AL home run leader, Soler’s stats have cratered over recent years, with a dismal walk rate and career-worst strikeout rate. In his final year of a $42M contract, he’s earning $13M while likely to clear waivers with no team picking up his remaining $3.9M. Expect him to hit the free agent market on a minor league deal as his once-promising career fades.
