Signed out of the Dominican Republic for $1.5M as a 16-year-old in 2015, Juan Soto played in the Gulf Coast and New York/Penn Leagues in 2016, posting a combined .368/.420/.553 line with 14 doubles and five home runs as a 17-year-old in his first professional season.
He only played in 32 games in 2017, as injuries (ankle/hamate bone/hamstring) limited him to 123 plate appearances, but when he was on the field, the 18-year-old outfielder put up a combined .351/.415/.505 line with six doubles and three home runs.
