2024 Topps Heritage #144

After Gregory Soto was traded to the Orioles on July 30th for Moises Chace and Seth Johnson, it came to light the reliever had not bee happy with his role in the Phillies bullpen as a non-closer.  He had pitched relatively well for the club in 2023, but his 4.62 ERA in 60 1/3 innings likely didn't lend itself to a higher leverage role.  Soto was 2-4 for the Phillies in 2024 with a 4.08 ERA in 35 1/3 innings pitched when he was dealt to Baltimore.  He struggled with the Orioles and saw his ERA go up to 5.09 in his 23 games back in the American League.  Soto and Seranthony Dominguez will likely both be back in the Orioles bullpen in 2025.
