WE'LL KNOW JORGE SOLER'S FATE SOON


(pictured:  Jorge Soler)

Why do I think Jorge Soler's close to deciding on a major league team? A source familiar with the Yankees thinking suggested that.  I was spitting piss and vinegar since I woke up.  Last night I read that the Yankees were "pushing hard to get him", meaning Jorge Soler, by a source familiar with the Yankees thinking. Do you know what that means? There is no source and whomever wrote that is banking on you actually believing that they have an inside track to Jorge Soler. It's lazy reporting, they might as well just call you stupid.  Let me break it to you, no one knows much on Jorge Soler and the info on Soler is coming out in drips and drabs.

Here's what we do know:

-The deal is expected to down 2 4 years and $20 million.

-Soler, as far as we know didn't make a sequel "showcase" video called The Showcase II" like Yoenis Cespedes did for his video "The Showcase."

-We know this, only from Buster Olney. Originally the 4 teams in the hunt for Jorge Soler were the Yankees, Cubs, Braves and Dodgers. That has now been fine tuned to the Yankees and Cubs.

-We know that Soler is expected to decide by "early Monday", but "early Monday" came and went and still nothing.

-We know that because the "early Monday" deadline passed, Jon Heyman decided that he needed to out due his other "baseball insider" friends and say, "Well, it's not 'early Monday' but instead the decision will come down to the next 24 to 36 hours.

See? Then it starts to get wacky, baseball insiders trying to top baseball insiders, yet their all getting the same information that you and I can get by talking to people on Twitter or just using common sense.
I think the Yankees have a really good shot. That's coming from people that are familiar with the Yankees thinking...Me.
