Soto (elbow) is expected to be sidelined until late April or early May, the Minnesota Star Tribune reports.
Soto underwent surgery to remove a partially detached bone spur in August, so it's not surprising he'll be eased into action this spring. The No. 34 overall pick of the 2023 First-Year Player Draft has thrown three bullpen sessions in spring training, so he's making significant progress in his rehab program.

Rotowire
Soto underwent surgery to remove a partially detached bone spur in his elbow, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. He will miss the rest of the season but is expected to be ready for spring training.
Soto was off to a promising start at High-A Cedar Rapids, posting a 1.38 ERA and 15:5 K:BB in 13 innings, before suffering the injury in April. It sounds like the No. 34 overall pick of the 2023 First-Year Player Draft has a chance to be back to full strength at the start of next season.

Twins' Charlee Soto: Sharp in High-A debut
Rotowire
Soto threw four scoreless innings with five strikeouts and three walks Friday in his first start for High-A Cedar Rapids.
A 2024 first-round pick out of high school, Soto had a 26.7% strikeout rate but a 5.23 ERA (though 3.42 FIP) as an 18-year-old at Low-A Fort Myers last year. He had a 10.5% walk rate, so he'll need better control as he advances through the minors. However, he's shown a lot of promise at a young age versus his competition level.
Soto has a 2.08 ERA and 18:5 K:BB in 13 innings through four starts for Single-A Fort Myers.
A 2024 first-round pick out of high school, Soto is having a strong start to his professional career at just 18 years old (he turns 19 on Aug. 31). He's a former shortstop who is relatively new to pitching, so his good control - even if in only four starts - is an encouraging sign.
