  1. Yankees with the last meeting and the opportunity to match the best offer. Also, it would be kind of fun if Soto signed before Thanksgiving. Boras knows Soto’s market is strong so there’s no reason to really drag it out. And Boras has a bunch of other big clients that need to sign that would probably prefer not to wait til mid-January; especially since that strategy blew up in Boras’s face so spectacularly last offseason. Finally, I’m sure that the teams in the bidding have told him that Soto’s holding all of their other plans up, and that they need clarity quickly, one way or the other.

  2. Us being last means he wants us to have the best shot. What Cohen will offer scares me a bit, but being last, we’ll have the opportunity to match or beat the highest offer

  3. This is good for us, at least Hal will have some idea what other teams are offering before he gives his initial offer

  4. Cohen will offer the most, the question is how high is Hal willing to go, will playing for the yankees the premier franchise along with Judge be enough to make up for the the lack of contract, for example I can see the mets going to 650 mill hal tops at 600, will the 50 mill spread out over 13-14 years be the difference. I just don’t see Cohen missing out solely on $

  5. Boras is using Boston and Toronto as window dressing, doing everything possible to boost the price.

  6. Yeah, no lol. Any team that isn’t the Mets, Yankees and Dodgers are delusional if they think they have any chance of getting Soto, especially when he’s pretty much demanding a 600+ million dollar contract

  7. I’m just gonna avoid this sub til pitchers and catchers. It’s just gonna be full of nothing stories like this.

  8. Breaking: A lot of teams looking to offer a very good player lots and lots of money!! This story will be breaking until Christmas and maybe beyond!!!

  9. I expect soto to sign early in the offseason. Hopefully with us.

    But after last year for boras, teams are showing they arent deal with his manipulative bullshit. He cant afford to have soto drag out then lose a lot of time on his other clients.

    Im all for players getting their money but the way boras does it with his heyman mouth piece makes him shitty

  10. You just know somehow the Yanks bungle this.

    George would have had him signed, Hal and Cash are buffoons.
