It was incredible watching him smash home runs and there are few things better in baseball than when he connects. Unfortunately, that wasn’t Soler.Ĭhristopher Tenpenny: Soler's 2019 season will always have a special place in my heart. While Davis would have been valuable in KC for another season or two, it made sense to try and grab young, controllable players who can make an impact for a much longer timeframe.
The only thing that makes the trade itself palatable is Wade Davis fell off a cliff a couple of years later and unlike Wiley Coyote, he never bounced back.
