Cubs fans - when are you expecting Baez to be called back up?

Piggybacking here, but any thoughts on Soler? Only 5 homers and an awful .698 ops. I will have a decision to make on keeping him or not for one more year after this season.

Soler is tough to predict. He's still just 22, raw and has very minimal professional baseball experience.

He's still missing a lot of hittable pitches. The potential is there and I believe he will get to 30+ HR POP.
Trying to guess when that will happen? It could be a year, 2, or 5.

You can only keep him in 2016? Who are your other options?

Yeah. He is in year 2 of a maximum 3 year deal. I have a lot of other options. Just looking for info from Cubs fans who watch him everyday to see if they think he can return to 2014 form or if this is what we can expect from now on.

Soler - I think he'll need some time but eventually he'll be a great player. If you can only keep for two more years, I'd try to find a more ready player.

Baez - Madden has indicated that he'll be up soon. Smart money is on September, but they have no financial reason to keep him down so it could be within the next few weeks. Keep in mind, the Cubs are competing, so if they feel he'll help the team he'll come up.

Not expect in much this year. He'll probably be called up in September but won't see a significant amount of playing time.

I guess Soler could hit 20-25 next year, but I would not be rushing to keep him if 2016 is the last year. Again, it just depends on your other options.
