As star outfielder Juan Soto enters the final stages of picking his new team in free agency, one team is seeking another meeting.
Per The Boston Globe's Alex Speier (h/t Boston.com's Conor Ryan), the Boston Red Sox are hoping to meet with Soto and his agent, Scott Boras, to determine the price of his contract.
"The Mets and owner Steve Cohen loom large," Speier wrote. "The Sox are aware of rumors that Cohen told Boras he would go $50 million beyond any other team's highest offer. Whether accurate or not, the perception of Cohen's willingness to spend to such heights lords over the bidding and how teams approach it.
