Juan Soto ‘eliminating teams’ as Yankees, Mets battle for superstar

I don’t think the Yankees are even in it at this point. Looks like Red Sox or Mets. Yankees aren’t in a position to pony up to that extent, and I don’t think there’s any loyalty there to give a discount.
Are the Red Sox out?
Its Yankees or Mets, it’ll come down to who pays better, but I think he wants to stay in the Bronx. There wasnt a snowman’s chance in hell he was going to Toronto or Boston. That was just Boras putting pressure on the Yankees by making them worry that he’ll go to an AL East rival.
Boras wants the Yankees to raise their offer because Soto wants to stay with them, but still wants a giant contract. 600 mil for an elite bat and mediocre defense doesn’t seem worth it to me, but I’d rather the Yanks keep him than send him across town.

No surprise here.
Where on the football field are we on this?
