No matter what the idiots say, Soto is on a historic start to his career. He's matching up 90% similar with Ken Griffey Jr and Mickey Mantle through their age 24 seasons. He's the same age as Judge was as a rookie NOW. 7th youngest to 500 RBI, and 7th most home runs before turning 25 (and that's with a covid season screwing him out of 100+ games). He's in his prime now and loves the bright lights. He's going to be an all time Yankee great--and this is coming from a Red Sox fan.

DROP THAT MIC AJ 🔥🔥🔥

[@WanerPena]

When people say that Soto is overrated, it's often because they don't know much about baseball. When you see a young player like Soto, who is only 25 years old, achieving the same feats as legendary players such as Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez, it's a testament to his talent and hard work. Soto is doing something right, and his success is well-deserved.

[@ajperry3063]

@@WanerPena what gets me about the "overrated" crowd is when they just blatantly make stuff up like it doesn't apply to literally any other young hitter. "He was bad in 2022, Acuna/Betts/etc is better"....like did you have that same energy when Betts hit .260 with 60 rbi in his early 20s? Or when Acuna had a very off year in 2022 as well? Hell, even Barry Bonds batted .248 as a 24 year old. The greatest of the greats pretty much all erupt into their prime at or around 25. For soto to have a top 15 all time overall start at the plate and have the greatest eye since Ted Williams spells a 600 homer career if he stays healthy and lots of MVP votes.

He's been an absolute blessing in Pinstripes. Extension incoming to make him a Yankee For Life.GO YANKEES!!!! #CHASEFOR28

[@reel8453]

He'll definitely be going to test FA, as much as I want to be wrong. The Yankees need to be right there in the winter to make it happen when the time comes.

[@notorious1_1]

I was at that game for Soto first hoemrun in Yankees stadium and that energy was insane truly an amazing memory i will keep with me

[@antonioduverge3558]

Imposible not to like this guy, not a Yankees fan but the Yankees fans are going to have a heck of a season with this guy wearing the pinstripes uniform.

[@jwanie366]

It's only been 3 weeks into the 2024 Season and Juan has already made such an impact on this team (and the fanbase). Not all players can deal with the pressure of playing in New York, but it seems that he embraced it right away. If the Yankees win it all this year, Juan will deserve A LOT of credit for it

[@juanlopez1973]

NY, hopefully you appreciate Soto, he is the real thing.

[@rhettholzhauer5359]

I wanted the Yankees to get him when Washington was willing to trade him. He's a generational player. Best player on the team. I'm not knocking Judge either because he's a beast and so is Stanton when they're healthy

Speaking as a Dodgers fan: don't let another Yankee wear 22 again.

[@biestherruiz]

Dios contigo Soto

[@Matter-of-Fax]

PAY THIS MAN

[@Anthony-dy5cq]

I heard Yankee fans were bitching because soto was working counts and taking a walk once or twice every 4 plate appearances instead of hitting a home run every at bat. You gotta kid who's got an eagle eye for the strike zone, seemingly, hits and walks at will more than he strikes out and he's "not the one". Lol Joey Gallo sounds more like your speed, shall Cashman offer Washington a Soto Gallo deal?
