The New York Mets have pursued Juan Soto, labeling him a 'generational' player, which aligns with the vision of team president David Stearns. The Mets made a record offer of $765 million over 15 years for the 26-year-old outfielder, who is considered among the best in baseball alongside stars like Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge. With Soto joining the team, alongside other key players, there is optimism for their performance following last year's NLCS appearance.
"At that point, Soto was still playing for the Padres and more than a year away from free agency, but he fit into Cohen and Stearns' vision for the Mets."
"Ultimately that push involved a record $765 million guaranteed over the next 15 years... The prize is a 26-year-old outfielder who fits neatly into the conversation... about the game's greatest talents."
