I understand the Soler re-signing rationale, but am reticent to do so at peak value. An overpay for another three-year deal, combined with the Garcia debacle, and adding in the other immediate requirements for 2024 make it dicey either way. I'd like to think Johnston will be a power hitter in the big leagues, but we cannot assume that. Bell also has only a year left, if he opts in as I suspect. Figure the Marlins will have a top number for Soler, cognizant as they are of your rationale and alternatives, but let another team drastically overpay. What is that number/term, though?
