How Juan Soto signing with New York Mets impacts Texas Rangers + Roki Sasaki is officially posted

Juan Soto signed a 15 year, $765 million deal with the New York Mets in free agency, the richest contract in North American sports history. The New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers were among the other teams in the running to sign Soto and will be desperate to show their fanbases they still can compete even after missing out on signing Soto.

The Texas Rangers were listed by ESPN Jeff Passan and Baseball America’s Ben Badler as one of the teams most likely to sign Japanese star pitcher Roki Sasaki. Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News also linked the Rangers to former Braves ace Max Fried as a potential alternative to re-signing Nathan Eovaldi.

  1. I mean maybe a team pays teoscar a little more now since soto signed but if they were willing to sign soto, they were gonna massively overpay for him anyways. 54M/yr is too much for a glorified DH that soto is gonna be in a couple years. And he didn't defer any money to help the team out.
