Finally! Let the bidding wars begin.

Jorge Soler Declared A Free Agent
By Mike Axisa [June 2, 2012 at 10:39am CST]
Jorge Soler has been declared a free agent and is now eligible to sign with any team, reports Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (on Twitter). The 20-year-old Cuban outfielder will be subject to the spending restrictions imposed by the new collective bargaining agreement as of July 2nd, but he can sign for any amount prior to then.

The Indians, Red Sox, Phillies, Yankees, Marlins, Blue Jays, and Astros, and are said to have interest in Soler, and back in March there were bogus reports that the Cubs had agreed to a contract with the outfielder. Two GMs speculated that the bidding would exceed five years and $15-20MM back in February.

Glad to hear this news. So if the Cubs land Soler why the heavy interest in Almora.

Crazy, I assumed Mystery Team would be involved on Soler, seems to be involved with every other FA.

Ben Badler replied to me with a cryptic tweet when I asked who the favorites to sign him are:

"All I can say is don't believe everything you hear".

Maybe the Rays have a shot?
