Elian Soto, the 16-year-old brother of Juan Soto, will sign with the Nationals in the next international signing period:

Before anyone thinks that signing the younger Soto is like getting a clone of Juan, consider that none of the ranking services has him on their future top prospects lists. There is no Perfect Game stats to look at like we had with Armando Cruz and other international players. What we have here is a shared Soto DNA and the fact that the natural righty is hitting as a lefty like his big bro — and working hard. He is being signed on his potential and that last name.

If nothing else, it will serve as a gesture of good will between the Nationals and their star hitter.
