Juan Soto is on the brink of a historic free agency deal, with multiple teams reportedly in the mix to offer contracts that could exceed $700 million over 15 years. According to MLB insiders:
1. **The Yankees, Mets, Red Sox, and Blue Jays** are all said to have offers in the range of 15 years for $700 million. Notably, the Dodgers, typically big spenders, are considered “longshots” in these negotiations despite not being formally out of contention.
2. **The Mets** are emerging as a frontrunner. Mets owner Steve Cohen is reportedly willing to exceed any competing offer to secure Soto, underlining their aggressive approach to free agency.
Additionally, a TikTok comment from Mets manager Carlos Mendoza’s son hinted at a 15-year, $700 million offer from the Mets, though this has not been confirmed by official MLB sources.
Soto, having just turned 26 and coming off a career-high 41 home runs while leading the Yankees to a World Series appearance, is poised to command one of the largest contracts in MLB history.
His combination of age, offensive prowess, postseason experience, and durability makes him one of the most coveted free agents since Alex Rodriguez.
Stay tuned as the Soto sweepstakes continue to develop, with teams likely to push the boundaries of historic MLB contracts.
