Marlins' Jorge Soler: Starts hitting progression

Soler (oblique) has been cleared to begin a hitting progression, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Soler has been rehabbing from a right oblique strain in Miami, and he's been cleared to start ramping up his baseball activities. He'll be eligible to return from the 10-day injured list Sept. 16 against Atlanta, though it's unclear if he'll be ready to go after missing the minimum.
