Oct. 31: Report: Soto eyeing $700M deal; many clubs already showing interest

Soto has been a free agent for less than 24 hours, but a bunch of teams have alr
eady been in contact with him, according to MLB Network insider Jon Heyman.

Heyman writes in the New York Post that eight teams checked in with Soto in the
hours after he and the Yankees lost to the Dodgers in World Series Game 5 on Wed
nesday. By Thursday morning, the number of interested clubs was up to 11.

However, it's unclear how many of those teams will meet Soto's asking price. Per
 Heyman, $700 million -- or more -- is seen as Soto's "new magic number." That w
ould match the total value of Shohei Ohtani's contract with the Dodgers, but muc
h of that money is deferred, lowering the deal's present-day value. Soto, conver
sely, is looking for a "solid" $700 million, according to Heyman.

The incumbent Yankees are likely to make a strong effort to bring him back, but
while Soto said after New York’s season-ending loss that he was happy with the
team and the city, he also made it clear he’s not giving the Bronx Bombers an e
dge over any other potential suitor.

“I feel like every team has the same opportunities when I go into free agency,
” Soto said. "I don't want to say anyone has an advantage, because at the end o
f the day we're gonna look at what they have and how much they want me."

The Mets and Dodgers could be the Yankees' top competitors for Soto. Heyman adds
 that the Giants, Blue Jays and Red Sox "are expected to check in, and word, sho
ckingly, is two small-market teams already have."

大致上提到

Soto成為自由球員還沒滿24小時，不過已經很多隊展現興趣



洋基會盡力留人，不過雖然Soto在洋基跟紐約待的很開心，不過他也表示對所有潛在的下家

會一視同仁

大都會跟道奇是洋基的主要競爭者，其他預計會接觸Soto的還有巨人、藍鳥跟紅襪。令人訝
異的是還有兩支小市場球隊去問。


大概是這樣
