Phillies And Yankees Both Interested In Jorge Soler

The Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Yankees are currently interested in 19-year-old Cuban baseball prospect, according to ESPN.com.

Soler is considered a major power hitting prospect, and according to some analysts would be one of the top 50 prospects in baseball immediately after signing with a team. While some believe he isn’t athletic as fellow Cuban defector Yeonis Cespedes, who just yesterday signed a four-year, $36 million deal with the Oakland Athletics, he is seven years younger and may have more upside.
