Frankly, this article is unnecessary. The Mets signed Juan Soto to a 15-year, $765 million deal on Sunday night, one containing an opt-out clause that will almost certainly push the total value to $805 million. They stole him from the crosstown Yankees and outlasted a surprisingly aggressive Red Sox organization to secure a player on track to be a slam dunk first ballot Hall-of-Famer for the rest of his career. It’s an A+ move, and it’s frankly obvious why. Feel free to stop reading now.
Still here? Fine, let’s discuss why it’s an A+ and why anyone who tells you otherwise is just wrong.
