Juan Soto is a generational talent that is now a New York Met thanks to Steve Cohen. His bat would greatly improve whatever lineup he joined, but with the Mets he joins a MVP candidate, an elite OBP player, and a budding star at the top of the lineup. So what does the Mets’ lineup look like with the addition of Soto right now? Here’s the projected lineup at Roster Resource.
- Francisco Lindor - SS
- Juan Soto - RF
- Mark Vientos - 1B
- Brandon Nimmo - LF
- Starling Marte - DH
- Jeff McNeil - 2B
- Tyrone Taylor - CF
- Francisco Alvarez - C
- Brett Baty - 3B
Obviously it’s still early in the offseason, and things can change—namely at third base and at first base.
