MLB adjusted Los Angeles Angels slugger Jorge Solerâs punishment following his appeal after he received a seven-game suspension.
Soler served as the catalyst for an on-field brawl with Atlanta Braves pitcher Reynaldo Lopez last week, and both parties received seven games for their involvement in the fight. Lopez, who exchanged blows with Soler while still holding the baseball, got his suspension reduced to five games, and MLB reduced Solerâs suspension to four.
Jorge Soler's suspension has been reduced to four games, and he will start serving it tonight.

The 34-year-old will begin serving his suspension in the Angelsâ third game of a four-game series against the New York Yankees on Wednesday.
Solerâs suspension will keep him out through Saturday, meaning heâll miss the first two games of a three-game series against the San Diego Padres back at Angel Stadium.
The Angels will miss Soler during his absence, as he has been fantastic with the bat throughout the young 2026 season. He has five home runs on the season, and leads the American League with 18 RBIs. The 143 OPS+ he has so far this season is his highest since 2014âwhen he played just 24 games with the Chicago Cubs.
In the meantime, the Angels have several options they can consider to take over Solerâs spot. The best options are Mike Trout and Jo Adell, who have been below average fielders in the outfield this season.
What do you think of Solerâs suspension? Should it have been reduced further?
