Deep breath. He's 2 levels away from AA and he's not even 100 PAs into the season. If he hits .300 with power in the Carolina League, sure, but we're a long way from that.
The KATOH projection system at FanGraphs ranks Soto the #1 most improved hitting prospect of the year so far.http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/katohs-most-improved-hitting-prospects-so-far/"Soto destroyed the GCL last year, prompting the Nats to send him to full-season ball at the age of 18. An 18-year-old in the Sally League is noteworthy in and of itself. An 18-year-old striking out at a 9% clip while also hitting for some power is the stuff of a blue-chip prospect. If he continues to rake, he’ll likely be place highly on midseason lists."
