The 26-year-old outfielder batted .288 with 41 homers, 109 RBIs and 128 runs for the New York Yankees in 2024.
In addition to the Yankees and the reported co-favorite New York Mets, the Scott Boras client also will hear pitches from the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox.
Soto is expected to command one of the longest, most lucrative contracts in MLB history. Analysts have predicted as many as 14 years and a total value between $500 and $700 million.
A four-time All-Star, Soto is a career .285/.421/.532 hitter with 201 homers and 592 RBIs in 936 games with the Washington Nationals (2018-22), San Diego Padres (2022-23) and Yankees. He won a World Series (2019) and a batting title (2020) with the Nationals.
