[Nightengale] The reason there was no communication between Juan Soto and his former Yankee teammates simply is that Soto changed his cell phone number. He was bombarded by outside calls during his free agency and wanted privacy. Soto now is reaching out to former Yankee teammates.

  4. This is the most Boob tweet ever. I wouldn’t expect any other reporter to have this information.

  8. Boob strikes me as the kind of dude who would aggressively hop up and down on the toilet while breaking a story.

  9. Literally “new phone, who dis”

    But also Judge said he was leaving Soto alone because that’s just what you do. Lots of players have said they left teammates entering free agency alone, because it’s their life and decision to make.

    I’m sure Soto was kinda busy the last few weeks, too.

    edit: With that said, I hope Juan knows he is paying for every meal he ever has with any of his former teammates.

  10. They also asked him about his interactions with Mets players and he said Marte a little bit over the years. This is such a non story

  12. the media wants this to be so much bigger than it actually is lmao

    “guy who signed largest sports contract ever was busy for 6 weeks” no way….

  13. Judge: Hey So-booo, how you doing bub?

    Soto: new phone, who dis?

    Judge: 🥲

    Judge: Hey Hal, make sure that asshole has to pay for a suite!

    Hal: You got it, sir. Whatever you want.

  15. This actually makes it sound worse IMO than just not having talked to them. He changed his number so they couldn’t reach him lol. 

  18. Can’t wait for tomorrow’s breaking story about how Juan Soto once tripped on the sidewalk near Yankee stadium and how that impacted his decision

  20. I don’t know what’s more annoying. That this is considered tweetworthy news or that a baseball reporter would be privy to specific info like this

  21. Wait, I thought Martino said Boras locked Soto’s phone in a safe so he couldn’t talk to any other players.

  22. So turns out Soto’s 3rd cousin’s friend’s chef actually didn’t talk to him directly

  23. Can’t wait to have Juan Soto take up 1/4th of the screen in the WS so we can see his live reaction

  29. Oh, thank god. I was so worried there for a minute. My life is much better now that I have this information.

  38. Imagine being the person who now has Soto’s old number. You’re just constantly getting bombarded by texts from players, execs and reporters.

  39. Can anyone tell me what time Soto slept during free agency period and what time he sleeps now? It’s critical information.

  43. Genuinely I’m glad to hear this, because earlier coverage made it seem like he was determined to burn bridges.

  44. The reason there was no communication between Kelvin Benjamin and his last Golden Corral visit simply is that Benjamin changed his cell phone number. He was bombarded by outside calls during his buffet and wanted privacy. Benjamin now is eating out at Golden Corral.
