The only real reason the Bulls would do a sign and trade is to unload Boozer. Because they can't get LAL or a 3rd party to take him, the Bulls are going to sign Gasol straight-up.

Solid option for Bulls at PG
Best defender on team at guard and when Rose gets hurt Kirk can carry the PG spot well

If it was for the vet min I could understand, but they gave him the room exception. Two years, 5.6M with a player option for second year. GarPax can finally run their all white lineup

So Bulls got that 2003 NCAA title game participant slot filled even after missing out on Melo. Whew!

I am thinking he has a little ways to go before he gets moved up. They usually make em work a while at each level before getting moved.

He only has like 13 games at AA. I think they will have him finish the year there. Just the way the Cubs are slow rolling everyone and his injury history. It would be the smart thing to do and not pressure him.
He doesn't need to finish the year at AA. That would be a waste. I think the Cubs want to see Soler prove he can stay before moving him up. I expect Soler to be at AAA by August.
And fun fact, I believe every Cub affiliate, excluding the VSL Cubs, are over.500 and is either in first or second at their respective level. Kinda neat.

He should be though. He's not the same as a normal prospect; he's already played pro baseball in Cuba and from all reports has a much more advanced approach than one needs at AA. At this point he needs to stay healthy and it doesn't matter which level-AA or AAA- he is at for that to happen. It either does it it doesn't.
Give him a couple more weeks and then move him up. Ideally he should be up with the Cubs early next year if he can stay healthy.
I bet Soler stays at AA the rest of the year, goes to the AzFL then is in Iowa next year, poised for a midseason call up.
I think they want to see him go through teams, scouting adjustments, and his progression on those. He has only played 14 games this year and there is no need to rush him and risk injury. I am guessing mid next year call up

So McBuckets dropped 31 last night in the Summer League. While it is only the Summer League his parking lot range has been confirmed.
