2012
Soto has been moved across the diamond to first base, considerably lowering his value. Otherwise, the book on Soto remains the same - excellent power (30 homers at Double-A Carolina in 2011), terrible plate discipline. But as the Reds' experience with Yonder Alonso demonstrates, Soto doesn't have much of a future with the big league club at first base. A trade is his best hope.
2010
Soto is similar to Reds third-base prospect Juan Francisco, except less refined. He walked just 23 times in 505 at-bats at High-A Sarasota, and probably needs to repeat that level, at least for a half-season. His stagnation is yet another reminder to not get too excited about a prospect before he hits the upper levels of the minors and the competition improves.
2009
The Reds are awash in third base prospects, but Soto might ultimately prove to be the best among them. He slugged a combined .558 between Rookie-ball and Low-A Dayton as a 19-year-old. As his 11:46 BB:K in 285 at-bats might indicate, he's still pretty raw, and he might take a longer time to master successive levels. Defensively, he's no great improvement over Edwin Encarnacion. Still, with another year of progress you might find him among the top prospects in the game.
