The New York Mets have signed Juan Soto to a 15-year contract. The $765 million contract is the largest in sports history. Soto’s move from the Yankees to Citi Field is a bold statement for the Mets, aiming to eclipse the Bronx Bombers. Mets owner Steve Cohen continues his high-spending strategy after a nearly $340 million roster investment in 2024. The deal boosts the Mets line-up, while dealing a blow to the Yankees, losing a key contributor from their AL Championship lineup.
