Derek Jeter, an icon of the New York Yankees, was present at the MLB All Star Game 2023 as one of the luxury guests and spoke a little about how the season of the ninth New Yorker has been. The former shortstop suggested to the ‘Bronx Bombers’ that they sign the Dominican player, Juan Soto of the san diego padres before the change deadline.
The 2023 season of the MLB is half way and New York Yankees leave with a 49-42 record that puts them in fourth place in their division and nine games out of the Tampa Bay Rays who lead the American League East.
For this reason, Derek Jeter has made a request to the Yankees to sign Juan Soto in order to straighten out the offense and return to being in the places of the wild card fight.
“I think the San Diego Padres can heat up and really move up in the National League West,” he said. Jeter on the Fox Sports network. “But if they don’t, it’s not too late, but the sun is starting to go down, and if they don’t have a good couple of weeks, I wouldn’t mind seeing the Yankees go looking for Juan Soto.”
This season, the Yankees they have not counted on Aaron Judge because he is injured, so Juan Soto could be the player who replaces him,
“Especially if you don’t know when he will return Aaron Judge. We need an offense and I think it would make sense,” he said. Derek Jeter.
