Soto heating up

With Joey out another two weeks and Soto raking in his last 45 at bats is there a way to get him up to the big club?

Re: Soto heating up

It's taken Soto this long to adjust to AAA pitching. What makes you think that he'd be able to adjust immediately to major league pitching to help the club out right now?

Re: Soto heating up

Sometimes you can catch lightning in a bottle. I'm not saying it would happen, but it's not a foregone conclusion that Soto would immediately struggle in MLB.
