Follow along for all the latest news and rumours from around the Major League Baseball off-season.
The New York Yankees met with free agent superstar outfielder Juan Soto on Monday in Southern California according to multiple reports.
Heyman adds that as has been the case with the rest of Soto's meetings, things were more introductory in nature. Heyman also points out that while Soto did spend the 2024 season with the Yankees after coming over in a trade last winter with the San Diego Padres, Steinbrenner had not gotten the chance to know Soto as well as he has some longer-tenured Yankees like Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole.
Soto’s next deal is expected to approach Shohei Ohtani’s $700 million payday from last winter over a 14 or 15 year term. The Royals finished 13th in runs scored and 14th in team OPS least season while finishing in the top 10 in both team ERA and total runs allowed. The 12 players who declined remain free agents and if a new team signs them, their previous team will receive draft pick compensation.
