Ohtani has a literal market cap of a billion plus dollars due to his image and ties with the Japanese market, Soto only has a bat. No way in blue hell is Soto worth what Shohei is.

Shohei Ohtani's contract value was only worth about 460M if you account for deferred money being worth less than money up front. Soto is getting a much better deal than Ohtani did.

​@@belikearu He is underpaid and if he returns as a 2 way player well will be the best contract in history. However the thing about Soto is his age. He just turned 26. He probably is going to get paid until he is 40+ like most superstars get today. Just watch he is getting more than 550M.

I agree, I watched Juan Soto's games this year and his fielding cost the Yankees numerous games, has no range in defense, also does'nt have any speed is a bad baserunner, including having only 6 stolen bases and caught 4 times, Ohtani has 59 stolen base caught 4 times.

Any team that pays Soto anything above $400 Million is insane. He's an exceptional hitter, but that's it. Subpar fielding, subpar baserunning, he can't pitch, and he doesn't have an international brand. If he gets Ohtani money, then the poor team who gives him it is screwing themselves over for the entirety of his contract. Especially since he probably won't defer any money either.

He's certainly getting over 400. I'd say even 500 is almost a certainty. The real question is how close it gets to 600. He's obviously not as value as Ohtani, but he is four years younger, which is a factor here.

@BobSmith-kw6mg I agree he's not as valuable as Ohtani for all the reasons you mentioned, but again, he's only 26. That's an important part of this equation. He will top Trout because that was an extension, so no open market bidding. Soto is two years younger than Trout was when he got that extension. On top of that, Trout's contract was five years ago. Player contracts only go up over time as the league sees ever growing revenue. When you factor all of that, he easily tops $500 million, IMO. I don't think we see $600 unless he signs for 15 years or accepts deferrals.

He's good in the playoffs so you are getting guaranteed .780+ ops in the postseason with him, but that's still not worth a $600+ contract which is what he's gonna get. I don't think he's gonna defer money either. That being said teams willing to pay the luxury tax up to the final apron (maybe slightly more after the double 110%) can afford his services and still fill out the roster properly for a playoff run. You are paying $15 mil extra over another slugger a year because you know he's not gonna swing and miss and be a threat in the middle of the line up in the playoffs. Also the contracts gonna be over like 13 years so the aav will not be terrible and you go into cost cutting mode at the tail end of the contract. It's basically just the mets and yankees bidding for his services. I don't think it makes sense for the dodgers even if they can afford him.

I didn't watch yet but just hate that stupid question. Ohtani had an insane contract but with 3 good reasons. He is 2 players in one, a pitcher and a (fast) batter, so should get money for both positions. And secondly he brings all Japan and Japanese fans with him, which is a shame as I'm a Giants fan living in Japan for years 😂 But here we barely talk about other teams with Japanese players anymore, it's basically only the Dodgers... So with fans watching the games, paying for the TV access, buy Dodgers clothes or gears.. Ohtani contract will soon make profit already. Soto is a good and young player, while often healthy, which is good. But he shouldn't get more than 500m max.

A team that is willing to pay Soto for what he is seeking will regret later, i am sure of it. He may be a big slugger but what he seeks is his own fame, not the team's winning. Unlike Ohtani who places the team winning first, Soto wants a fame for himself. He is not a team player and some of announcers said that he is not a good defense player. Character matters when the baseball game is played by a team vs a team.

Speaking from the cardinals fan perspective of the Contreras topic. I know Trev mentioned his defense and that might be why he thought the FO made that move. According to Mo it’s a move to keep him healthy moving forward because statistically he’s been our best hitter in his 2 seasons. Also, and i think most importantly, we have Ivan Herrera and Pedro pages and Herrera in ‘22 was supposed to be the yadi successor but as a prospect he needed more time. I think now as the cardinals are openly entering a retool or transition they are giving him those reigns. Just my opinion, i consider the Contreras move similar to Harper to first.
@kevinr9943
@kevinr9943 2 ай бұрын
As a Cardinals fan myself, I understand all that & I am not necessarily opposed to the move if he must stay. However doing so basically eliminates Bakers spot on the roster. Which I'm ok with as well. I'm just not ok with taking up 5 roster spots for C & 1B/DH. I want Burleson listed as a 1B/DH along with Contreras or Baker, not both. Baker should go if Contreras is now a 1B/DH. This allows you to avoid both Walker & Burleson as 2 of our OFs & leaves room for 4 OFs, 4 IFs plus Donovan to what Donny do.
@mtp7479
@mtp7479 2 ай бұрын
@ yes i agree with Burleson, he can slot in as a corner outfielder first baseman as his primary positions. Personally I’m out on Luken Baker I don’t think he’s particularly part of the bigger plan of the FO. That’s just my opinion on that so that’s also why I’m ok with the Contreras move, I am however a person that doesn’t want to move Walker to first. Only reasoning is he’s still young and his athletic peak is still to come so I think some outfield seasoning could help him be serviceable defensively. Either way though, I’m not high as if we’re gonna make the playoffs next year, but I think the cardinals will be average to competitively average where they can steal a final playoff spot. As their ceiling of course, but I’m actually not as down on the cardinals current decisions to enter into a transition between windows. What do you think though?

I think Soto can get a larger contract than Shohei. Let’s do the math. Shohei’s contract is equivalent to $460 million in present-day value. If Soto gets a 13-year contract, which is totally possible because he is only 26, he would need $35 million in AAV to surpass Ohtani’s contract, which is totally possible. If he gets a 15-year contract, then he would only need an AAV of $31 million.

No way is Soto getting anywhere near Ohtani money!

These people especially the media and players' agents need to understand that the Ohtani deal was a one off. Nobody in baseball past or present has ever brought the value he brings to the dodgers both on and off the field. If someone out there thinks that this kid is worth anywhere near 600 million dollars even for as many as 15 years, you're nuts. His bat is phenomenal, average defensively at best and I don't think he can fill a ball park on a random Tuesday night in the regular season. You maybe a top 5 or 10 player in the league and want a contract that comes close, matches or even surpasses Shohei's, but that don't mean you're worth it. There's only one guy in the league that reverses that money and to take it up a notch, I think he was underpaid.

I'm curious if Soto will even be signed if he's dead set on trying to get 600 plus million in FA. I wouldn't be surprised if this goes into next season.

It’s not that hard to see. Mookie has been vocal about wanting to move back to the infield to save his legs. He is not the same outfielder he once was and he has said as much.

wasnt it Ohtanis left shoulder that he just had surgery on? and he's a right handed pitcher? so why would this surgery cause a delay to June for him to start pitching when like Trev said he has already been throwing bullpens this season? i think you are confused Mr rose

I think is cool that players get better and better contracts, but 700 millions for Soto? The world is going on a hand basket, for me Soto doesn't deserve more than 450, 500 is a little bit to much, he has never been an MVP, never hit 300, never 50 home runs, doesn't steal, poor defense, but it looks like Boras is the owner of every MLB team, because he is the one who decides how much a player should receive, not the team but him, good luck with that, it's not my money!!

Of course, I say the Mets, 770,000,000.00 14 years. 500,000,000 for 14 years at full AAV 270,000,000.00 million Deferred after he retires

Two cities in the spotlight, rest of the league are mere spectators once again. Trev talks about owners of the teams in the dark can spend but only on fringe players. Not the stars. They need to be on the "big stage". Maybe there's an issue if there's only a couple teams that are on that level?

Cardinal fan here. We aren’t worried about his defense we have young talent behind the plate. We also need his bat in the lineup as we basically rebuild the next two years. You guys don’t follow the team his defense wasn’t the issue. We just want him healthy and now he’s gonna be a beast hitter at first base.

As a Cards fan I agree with you. If they look foolish for signing Contreras on a long term deal, mark this as another foolish blunder from the John Mozeliek era. 2026 can’t get here soon enough. I’m ready for a rebuild with fresh thinkers and get a WS.
