Just wondering; is any of this Soto stuff real?
You really think the Red Sox would go up against the Yankees & Mets if there wasn’t legit interest from Soto
They would turtle and be negotiating with Teoscar
Also Boras is a media whore and showman with Jon Heyman as his mouthpiece
Pretty damn quiet
It’s not over till over but weirdness right now
Possible scenario - the Sox Dominican greats and Devers have sold him on living and playing in Boston. He’s probably a fan of Cora. The lineup should be jacked and with 4 of top 25 MLB prospects positional players he knows lineup will rake for years. The park is a hitters paradise for lefties with guys like Billy Goodman & Bill Mueller (did love him) winning batting titles - playing D will be easy once gets 50 games playing the wall
Never underestimate Steve Cohen of Mets but if Soto wants to play here it doesn’t matter what Cohen or Boras want
If they get him it will be great then the bonus of the kid who broke, and Boras can’t walk around with his fly undone during the winter meeetings
Other then Lou’s Mets not getting him it’s a win win - and I’ll gladly have him be a Mets if Bob Stanley could have got an out on his first batter in game 6 1986 WS and given Red Sox 4-2 WS win.
