Washington Nationals: Running out of superlatives for Juan Soto

It’s one of our more hotly anticipated 2018 Report Cards as we dive into Juan Soto and his historic rookie season. The Washington Nationals weren’t expecting him to be ready this soon, but he proved to be up to the task, and so much more.

After making his debut on May 20th, he made his first start on May 21st and went deep on his first pitch, setting the tone for his monumental season. He finished the season with an incredible slash line of .292/.406/.517 while hitting 22 home runs and driving in 70 runs.
