The Juan Soto rumour mill is heating up with reports that the superstar has received offers from several clubs \u2014 including the Toronto Blue Jays \u2014 and could be just days away from a decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest<\/strong>: Soto, 26, is set to land one of the biggest deals in MLB history this offseason. Three AL East clubs and two powerhouses from the National League have reportedly offered the five-time Silver Slugger a contract. Speculation is that he’ll sign around the Winter Meetings (Dec. 8-11).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Latest rumours<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Whether or not the Blue Jays are Soto’s eventual pick, they’re believed by some to have the highest offer. SNY’s Andy Martino and MLB Network’s Jim Duquette both reported on Dec. 2 that they’re hearing Toronto will be the top bidder. Still, four clubs are ahead of the Blue Jays on the odds leaderboard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • ESPN’s Buster Olney and USA Today’s Bob Nightengale have both put the Mets near or at the front of the pack. Nightengale recently shared that executives around the league view the Mets as the “clear-cut favourite.” On Nov. 30, NJ.com’s Randy Miller said the Red Sox and Mets are Soto’s most likely landing spots.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Multiple reports, including from MLB Network’s Jon Morosi, stated that Soto has received offers from five teams. In addition to the Blue Jays, Morosi says the New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Mets and Boston Red Sox have made offers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • On Nov. 26, the New York Post’s Jon Heyman said the Red Sox are increasingly seen as a “legitimate contender” for Soto. Boston’s odds have shortened in late November from +700 to +400 as speculation about Soto’s destination mounts. The Red Sox only have $107 million committed to their 2025 payroll.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Heyman also noted in the same Nov. 26 column that executives around the game believe Soto’s contract could reach or exceed $600 million. At the start of free agency, MLB Trade Rumors projected Soto to land a 13-year, $600 million deal. Shohei Ohtani is the only player in MLB history to sign a bigger contract than that (10 years, $700 million, with a significant amount deferred).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            • After signing star free agent pitcher Blake Snell to a five-year, $182 million deal, the Dodgers don’t appear to be out on Soto, according to Heyman.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              Blue Jays odds to sign Soto<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

              Here we go again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Toronto was linked to Ohtani last offseason before the Dodgers signed the two-way star to the biggest contract MLB history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Now the club will aim big again and has already enjoyed an impressive, in-person presentation with Soto, according to Heyman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Toronto might not have the shortest odds but its inclusion as a potential suitor makes sense for several reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • The team has a wealthy ownership group that has shown a willingness to spend. Rogers Communications is the second-richest owner in MLB (according to Statista) and the team had the ninth-highest payroll in 2024, per Spotrac.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                • Despite a last-place AL East finish, Toronto\u2019s core players are under contract for at least another season. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette are set to become free agents after 2025, while top arms Kevin Gausman and Jose Berrios are both under contract beyond that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                    \n
                  • Following an expensive stadium renovation that raised ticket prices considerably, it\u2019s unlikely the club is ready to rebuild. Multiple reports earlier in the offseason from Heyman and Olney (ESPN) indicate Toronto is expected to be a major player this offseason.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                    Toronto’s interest in Soto should be taken seriously. The club was reportedly the first group to meet with the four-time all-star.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi reported the club is willing to make a special payroll allocation to acquire him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Yankees favoured to sign Soto<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                    The betting favourite Yankees reportedly met with Soto on Nov. 18, according to Heyman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Among the selling points they pitched the superstar on was the idea of playing playoff baseball with Aaron Judge for years to come (per Bob Klapisch of NJ Advance Media).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Soto and Judge formed one of the game’s most fearsome duos in 2024, both placing as AL MVP finalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The Yankees top the odds board after Soto helped power New York to the World Series. But several deep-pocketed teams, including the Mets and Red Sox, have been linked to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Heyman says he heard Boston’s ownership group, like Toronto’s, also impressed during a recent meeting with Soto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    The MLB insider further reported that the Mets had a detailed sit-down with Soto, and put on a big production that went extremely well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Those clubs, along with the Dodgers, are the top contenders to sign Soto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Soto and agent Scott Boras reportedly turned down a 15-year, $450 million from the Washington Nationals in 2022. He was traded to the San Diego Padres later that year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Over his next two full seasons, Soto proceeded to put up 14.1 fWAR \u2014 fourth among all position players. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    As such, Soto\u2019s price tag is going to be astronomical. But the Yankees are committed to winning and know better than anyone what Soto brings to a ball club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    Soto betting notes <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                      \n
                    • If any organization can shock the world, it\u2019s the Dodgers. They worked Ohtani into a payroll that now has six other $100-plus million contracts after the Snell signing. After making significant moves for starters Tyler Glasnow and Yoshinobu Yamamoto last offseason, the reigning World Series champs are threats for acquiring any superstar, evidenced once again by the Snell acquisition.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                        \n
                      • Speaking of high payrolls, no team spent more on its 2024 roster than the Mets, who were paying big money to players they didn\u2019t even have on their team. With several key free agents following a surprise run to the NLCS, don\u2019t be surprised if the Mets and Steve Cohen (the richest owner in the game) pony up big money to bring more stars to Queens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                          \n
                        • The Giants reportedly tried hard for both Judge and Ohtani during their free agencies. But the team has still coughed up big money in recent years to Matt Chapman, Robbie Ray and Jung Hoo Lee, all of whom got north of $100 million.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                            \n
                          • The Philadelphia Phillies operated MLB\u2019s fourth-largest payroll in 2024 and were among the top World Series contenders all season. They won the NL East for the first time since 2011.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
