Any MLB team would like to have Juan Soto in their ranks, but not all of them will be able to afford the contract he will seek in free agency. The Dominican’s market is small and he will be even more so if he has an exceptional season with the New York Yankees in 2024.
In the Bronx they know that despite acquiring him in a trade from San Diego in December, the Dominican’s stay may be brief. Neither the outfielder nor his representative are inclined to negotiate a contract extension, but rather prefer to try their luck in Major League free agency.
Although this guarantees that the best teams can present their offers for Soto, it is very clear that only a select few have sufficiently solid finances to assume that $500 million commitment. These are some ideal destinations, according to a ranking made by Bleacher Report.
Everything indicates that the 2024 season will be a transition for the Mets, who will return to the fray next season. Although Queens must make an important decision with slugger Pete Alonso, it is known that the team’s finances are one of the most solid and that, having great aspirations that they have not been able to see crystallized, they could perfectly be one of the teams looking for the signature of Juan Soto. The interest in the Dominican is already announced, and it can grow if the Dominican emerges well from his first test in the Big Apple with the Yankees.
