A wise man once said, "you get what you pay for."

This offseason, the eyes of the baseball will be on free agent Juan Soto and exactly how much the winning bidder will pay for the 26-year-old All-Star who slugged the New York Yankees to the World Series with a tenth-inning home run Saturday night in Cleveland.

The New York Post's Jon Heyman reported the new "whisper number" for Soto is $600 million. That would make it the second-highest contract in the game's history behind Shohei Ohtani's massive $700 million deal signed last year.
