The LA Angels have done a great job of finding those hidden gems that many scouts overlook. One of those hidden gems the Angels found in March of 2016 is Dominican pitcher Jose Soriano. The Angels scouts found Soriano as a 17-year old and signed him to a free agent minor league contract.
Now three years later Soriano has risen up from the rookie league to low Single-A Burlington. What has helped Soriano rise up in the Angels system is his high 90’s fastball which has been clocked as high as 99 miles per hour. He also has a good curve ball to complement his fastball.
