Juan Soto is laughing all the way to the bank after reportedly signing a 15-year, $765 million contract with the New York Mets on Sunday night.
Major League Baseball insider Alden González of ESPN added to the details of Soto’s contract minutes after news initially broke stating “there are no deferrals” in the massive deal and it has escalators that can reach above $800 million.
The Mets outbid the Yankees with their offer, surpassing the $760 million, 16-year deal New York proposed after Soto helped carry their offense to the 2024 World Series, according to an MLB.
