John Hayman of the U.S. "New York Mets owner Steve Cohen led senior team officials to meet FA (free agent) superstar Juan Soto in Orange County, California," said on the 18th (Korea time).
Soto made his debut with the Washington Nationals in 2018 and played for the San Diego Padres and the New York Yankees, including lifting the World Series trophy in 2019, and appeared in 936 games in seven major league seasons, hitting 0.285 OPS 0.953.온라인바카라
Soto, who is called a "genius hitter" with sophisticated contact ability, power to send a ball out of the fence at any time, and excellent pioneering skills, has played in 157 games this season and has raised his value by having his best year with 166 hits, 41 home runs, 109 RBIs, 128 runs and a batting average of 0.288 OPS of 0.989, and is currently receiving hot attention from numerous clubs.
According to multiple U.S. media outlets in the U.S., Soto is highly likely to surpass Ohtani's contract. Ohtani signed a 10-year, 700 million-dollar contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers last winter, but Ohtani's actual contract is only 450 million-dollar because he chose to "defer." The reason is that the value of the currency declines over time. The prevailing view is that Soto will sign a contract worth more than 600 million dollars without Dipper.
Amid this development, Soto has begun to meet with the teams in earnest. Starting with the Toronto Blue Jays, Soto had talks with the Mets on Wednesday. After that, Soto plans to start full-fledged negotiations with the New York Yankees, his friendship, and other clubs interested in him, including the Boston Red Sox. The New York Post reported that Soto and the Mets were in a very good mood for negotiations.
"According to all the news, the meeting between Soto and the Mets went very smoothly," the New York Post said. The Mets' presentation was rumored to be very large and detailed. "Since Soto and the Mets met in an undisclosed location in a secret way, information is only being disclosed little by little," the New York Post said, citing a source, "The Mets moved to California together with President David Stearns, Coach Carlos Mendoza and owner Steve Cohen, and made a positive impression."
The "New York Post" then added, "It is not known whether an official proposal came out of this conversation, but Soto is almost certain to exceed the contract value held by Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani. The $700 million contract that became a dipper is between $437 million and $770 million," adding, "Soto's contract could reach $600 million or $700 million without a dipper."
Among them, the amount that Soto was offered to the Mets was disclosed. Hector Gomez of the Dominican Republic's "z101 Digital" cited information from Carlos Baerga, who played in 1,630 games during 14 seasons for the Cleveland Indians, the New York Mets, the San Diego Padres, the Boston Red Sox, the Arizona Diamondbacks, and the Washington Nationals, with 134 homers, 774 RBIs, 59 steals, and a batting average of 0.291 OPS of 0.754.
"According to Baerga, the amount the Mets offered Juan Soto in LA was $660 million (about 921.5 billion won)," said Gomez of "z101 Digital." This ransom could rise further. This is because if the recruitment battle heats up as Soto offers a bigger contract to Soto from the Yankees or Boston, which Soto has not yet met, the ransom will naturally rise.
Until Ohtani joined hands with the Dodgers last winter, it seemed that such a blockbuster contract would never come out again, but Soto is now on the verge of surpassing Ohtani. A historic contract may be born this winter.
