Track Record: Soto is the highest paid player in the Red Sox international class signing for $1.4 million.
Scouting Report: Soto is a switch-hitting shortstop from the Dominican Republic standing 6-foot-3, 185 pounds and might not be done growing. Soto has the hands and footwork to handle the infield, his future is more likely at third base than shortstop with some risk he could move lower on the defensive spectrum depending on just how big he gets. The offensive upside is the draw with Soto, a switch-hitter with explosive bat speed and big power potential. Scouts highest on Soto liked his ability to manipulate the barrel to make contact, as well.
The Future: Soto will join Harold Rivas in the Dominican Summer League leading a strong contingent making their pro debuts in 2025.
