ESPN: An eye-opening update on Juan Soto’s contract proposals from the Yankees and Mets
Interesting proposals are being made by the New York baseball teams.
In order to keep Juan Soto in pinstripes, the New York Yankees are attempting to negotiate a deal. Given that the New York Mets met with Soto on Saturday, Z101 Digital reports that New York is renegotiating that offer.
The Yankees want to make Soto an offer that is greater than the Mets’ yearly average. According to rumors, the Mets’ offer is superior in terms of years and overall worth.
Whoever acquires him, Soto will get a lot of money in his next contract. This past season, the slugger batted in 109 runs and smacked 41 home runs. Despite losing to the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games, the Bronx Bombers advanced to the World Series thanks to that offense.
On Saturday, Juan Soto met with the Mets.
On Saturday, Soto spoke with a number of Mets front office personnel, including the team’s owner, in California. Soto was given a comprehensive plan by the Mets personnel to persuade him to switch teams in New York. Soto appeared happy with the offer, but media reports did not provide the specifics of the proposal.
The Yankees undoubtedly took notice after that meeting. Soto is being pursued by a number of teams, but it appears the Mets are making every effort. The slugger has also drawn interest from the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, Philadelphia Phillies, and Los Angeles Dodgers. Given the enormous sums of money that will need to be spent on him, Los Angeles appears to be backing off in recent weeks.
