NEW YORK -- Juan Soto, the four-time MLB All-Star outfielder, has agreed to a record 15-year, $765 million contract with the New York Mets, according to multiple reports.
The New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers were also reportedly interested in signing Soto, the best free agent hitter on the market.
A five-time Silver Slugger, Soto hit a career-high 41 home runs and drove in 109 RBI for the Yankees in 2024, his only season in the Bronx after being acquired in a blockbuster seven-player trade with the San Diego Padres following the 2023 season.
