Watch: Padres Welcome Juan Soto in Clubhouse Before Debut With Team

Juan Soto will make his Padres debut on Wednesday night after being traded to the team from the Nationals on Tuesday.

He arrived in San Diego earlier on Tuesday and met by various players. Soto also got a tour around his new home, Petco Park.

In one video that went viral, Soto met a fellow player from the Dominican Republic, Padres star Fernando Tatis Jr. The two embraced in a hug and spoke with each other for a bit in the workout room.

The Padres also received first baseman Josh Bell in the same trade, and he accompanied Soto around for the day as they explored their new home.
