News: Soto went 1-for-3 with a solo home run against the Tigers on Friday. Impact: After a 1-for-17 run over five games, Soto has now gone deep in back-to-back games for the first time since June 25-26, 2011. Just a little too late for fantasy owners as A.J. Pierzynski is back early next week which puts Soto back on the bench. He's worth holding onto through the weekend, but once he returns to his reserve role, his value will be minimal.(RotoWire, )

News: Soto is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the A's, according to Rangers VP of Comm. John Blake. Impact: Soto has played regularly with A.J. Pierzynski on the disabled list, but since he has just one hit in his last five games, manager Ron Washington will give Robinson Chirinos a chance behind the plate Wednesday.(RotoWire, )

News: Soto's teammate A.J. Pierzynski has been placed on the 15-day disabled list due to a strained right abdominal muscle, the Associated Press reports. Impact: Soto has only played in 10 games this season and is hitting a paltry .212 with just a single RBI, but on the bright side it looks like he's about to get a good deal of playing time in a stacked lineup the next two weeks. Robinson Chirinos may spell him at times while Pierzynski is out, which could be with greater frequency if Soto keeps struggling at the plate.(RotoWire, )
