Hours after Marlins owner Bruce Sherman vowed to continue spending to strengthen the club’s 2022 roster, Mike Rodriguez of Univision reports that the Marlins will be making “a very lucrative offer” to free agent outfielder Jorge Soler. The Braves are doing the same.
On Saturday, Rodriguez reported eight teams with interest in Soler, and that wasn’t even counting Atlanta. It’s unclear whether Phillies, Twins, Brewers, Red Sox, Astros, Rangers or Dodgers remain in contention for him, or if these two NL East rivals are the only finalists at this stage of the bidding.
