New York, United States.- The stellar Dominican free agent, <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2022/01/best-player-according-to-mlb-network-shohei-ohtani-dethrones-mike-trout/" title="Best player according to MLB Network: Shohei Ohtani dethrones Mike Trout”>Juan Sotostill does not have his future defined for the next baseball season of the Big Leaguessince more and more interested teams are asking about their services.
According to the official website of the MLBthe gunboat will begin meeting with clubs in California this week. Four teams have already scheduled meetings with Soto; they are about the Toronto Blue Jays, Boston Red Sow, New York Mets y New York Yankees.
Although, the Mets and the Yankees remain the favorites in the bidding for the slugger who came to play in the World SeriesBoston has the Dominican at the top of its priority list and it is expected that they can present an aggressive offer for the Dominican player.
Juanito is also scheduled to meet with the Dodgers and with two other teams also from the National League, of which it is said that one of them is the San Diego Padres.
It is expected that the Dominican will reach an agreement with a franchise of the Big Leagues before the end of the year, perhaps during the winter meetings, which will begin next December 9 with the Canadian team.
It should be noted that different American media assure that the Dominican’s new contract could surpass the one he had. Ohtani last year, which was $700 million for 10 years with the Dodgers.
own Boras represents de Soto, stated that the gunboat will command the highest price, with a current value expected to exceed the $700 million deal.
These figures could be supported if we take into account the great year that the player had with the Yankees, where he recorded 41 home runs and 109 runs produced, being an important piece for the club to establish itself in the World Series.
Considering the large amount of money that is coming for Juan Sotoit sounds complicated that teams like Boston and Toronto can make such an offer, unlike the Mets and Yankees who are known for taking out their wallets.
