The Yankees have no advantage for signing Juan Soto - The Michael Kay Show TMKS Oct 31 2024

[@Platerpus7]

Soto saying he wants to be back would be the dumbest negotiating tactic

[@Stacey_-bf2mb]

“I learned a lot from judge, I will take it with me in my next chapter.” -Juan Soto, yesterday

[@Platerpus7]

@ why is that the only part you quoted? Lmao Very convenient to stop the quote right there. The next thing he says is “whether I am here or not”

[@cesarcussianovich6175]

Soto has been very honest and clear He will take the highest offer He goes to the Mets 800 million 15 years?

[@Stacey_-bf2mb]

@@Platerpus7 “wether I am here or not” is the consistent non-answer he’s been giving. It’s a throw away line

[@Platerpus7]

@@Stacey_-bf2mb it’s not a throw away line. It completely voids what you were trying allude to that he doesn’t want to come back. If the Yankees pay him the most he will be there

[@AztecRay]

Those numbers are because he hit in front of Judge. Let him walk. Anything over 400 million will definitely hurt the team

[@1474JOHN]

You sound stupid AF, this is the first time he's playing with judge and he been putting those types of numbers since he came to the league, not only that go and watch the numbers of all of them in the world series and none of the others Yankees players comes close to soto numbers not even Staton, y'all really stupid if y'all think this team will do better without him, y'all forgot the first month of the season he did keep the team in first place by himself, while judge average was around 100

[@baosommurr4566]

His greatest attribute is he walks alot. Never been a top5 slugger and play below avg RF. If that garners the most expensive contact, pass....

[@mlbsports5668]

Is funny how the Yankees had 15 years without going to a World Series and then Soto got to the team help them go to a World Series and on top of that he performs pretty well on the playoff and you guys think y’all dont need him 😂🤣 if Soto walks is over for the Yankees

[@trueempire8948]

I want Soto back but there is so many holes in this lineup that needs to be addressed. If we can somehow keep him and do that great if not as tough as it sounds I say let him walk.

[@itchy5135]

This was my thought exactly and you're the only person that has said the same thing. Everyone is blind to this fact. I would love to have Soto back. The lineup is undoubtedly better with him but I dont want that to be the reason the Yanks don't improve other weaknesses because we know they'll do that. They wont open the books like the Dodgers and Mets will be, this offseason. They're still hell-bent on saving money instead of being the Evil Empire and just spend the money.

[@TheSymbiot3Venom]

You could go out and get 3 reasonably priced players and they still won’t make up the production Soto would 😅

[@santimig127]

Soto is the least of their problems, they need a new owner, GM, manager, coaching staff, bullpen, bench, 1st base, 2nd base, bat boy, etc etc. let Soto go

[@jessc.8510]

Soto learned his lesson from the Nationals. He’s not getting attached to any team anymore. He learned baseball is a business. They traded him twice now, he knows not to get emotionally attached until he’s signed. Hence why it went horrible for Soto with the padres, he seemed lost. He was depressed. Ppl only see from the outside. He was hurting all that time. He don’t care anymore because he knows the Yankees might not signed him.

[@AztecRay]

Soto turned down 440 million from the Nats. They were investing in him. WTF are you talking about

[@jo0123]

Once they get a massive 10-12 yr contract, in Soto’s case maybe 14 yrs. A lot of them lose their motivation. I think Yankees should stay away if he wants more than $500 million.

[@dannylevine6620]

If they let Soto walk because of money then I have just exercised my final renewal on my season tickets

[@advmuse]

I actually started following the Yankees because of Soto and I loved what I saw this season but hearing people talking about they should go and spend the money on Santander And other players, instead of getting the guy that gave you a taste of a World Series in 15 years, and actually was the best hitter in the team during the post season. Actually makes me believe that Soto should Run from this organization, go to the Mets, or dodgers, have fun with satander 😂

[@Icebergslim_1]

It’s not that we want to see him go, it’s the large contracts that are not sustainable. Having Judge, Cole and Stanton on payroll is a big deficit. Imagine adding Soto, how do we fill the rest of the roster?

[@markmilitant]

Nah Soto will go for 60mil a year the only reason Yankees made it to the series was Soto he’s a stud backup and decoy but I wouldn’t pay him

[@baosommurr4566]

What he wants and what team are willing to pay is another thing. No one is paying more than 550m for either 10-12

[@RobertDeMartin]

A million a year? Come on now, that won't make a difference! Even 10 million a year might not be enough to change things.

[@ronalddecesaris6115]

Eh let him walk He turned down 440 mil already once And he’s not worth that Maybe ohtani and that is it cause he can pitch also Judge isnt worth what he’s bringing in and he proved it U can get 3 players for what he wants

[@DR.VonDoom24]

It hurts to read this but you are right. Imagine getting Bregman, Christian Walker and Burnes. Who knows maybe roki salaries. We could plug more holes than with Soto, unless he deffers money.

[@themilkmansfuckinyawaaaf]

You're delusional

[@nyjets2392]

I need better help after that game. Yanks need to sign Soto and Bieber to start. Trade spencer jones for another infielder either 2nd base or 3rd base. Need to tighten up the defense, add some bullpen arms. Need bat to ball guys thay play good defense in the infield. I would also start moving judge to 1st base. Maybe a few days at first a few days in the outfield.

[@chrisj9256]

We went to the world series because of soto

[@MrMakaveli2786]

I don't know if that completely accurate. But he certainly contributed

I hope the yankee does that 😂

[@gringobronx7670]

With that money soto wants yankee could build a whole new team

[@theknickerbocker5808]

Let's not worry so much about Soto. How about we fix some basic fundamentals like base running, fielding, and the ability to hit with men on base. The Dodgers scouting report on the Yankees is amazing. It truly shows just how bad this team really was. Soto does not fix any of the above he only takes away $$$ to try and do so.

[@정의사도-c3k]

Any team who signs Soto is overpaid.

[@itchy5135]

can I say that I strongly dislike Boras? I was going to use different words but I thought I'd clean it up before posting that :)

[@vicpicksinvesting5380]

Soto is the reason yankees for this far. He was always on base. Judge got free rbis

[@leroycharlesdiazurena9595]

Santander, Stanton and Judge together? How many strikeouts you want to see?

I’m a fan of Soto apart from the Yanks, so wherever he goes good for him❤

[@jessc.8510]

Crazy how the Yankees made the World Series in fifteen years with Soto but now he’s not wanted. Besides Judge, Soto is the reason why the Yankees made it to the WS. I don’t think yanks will make the WS again in a long time if they get rid of Soto.

[@baseball7309]

what does kay expect him to say? judge said the same thing but we all knew hed be back

[@stevenrunyon170]

Yankees just lost the WS with Soto so pay him 700 million so you can still lose. lol

[@JohnDiblasio-o1j]

trade for Stanton was colossal mistake instead of free agent Bryce Harper who was hoping to go to the yankees

[@docbryan01]

Yankees would be the same team if they re-signed Soto. Problems with the team masked by playing mediocre teams in the AL especially since Astros got old and most of the Orioles were in the infirmary. Not winning a WS with Judge because he disappears in October and Stanton cannot carry both of them so might as well bring up Spencer Jones (CF), Dominguez (LF), Ben Rice (1B) and trade or sign the best 2B available. Acquire all the fireballers you can for the bullpen to help Weaver out.

[@1474JOHN]

What the heck are you talking, Stanton did not carry soto at all, matter fact only thing Stanton did better than soto was a couple of more homers, soto was an on base machine, y'all really clueless, better average, better on base % less strikeout, more runs scored, more BB ,yeah Stanton did really good but he did not carry soto at all

[@jaymirjanga2358]

We need much more than just Juan Soto. Yankees can win without him if they just improve rumning the bases and defense. The Yankees will be WSC2025 after bearing LA and Soto.

[@keysersoze503]

No respect for a guy who right after the World Series loss spouts a canned Scott Boras script. The Yanks need fielders, pitchers and speed not strikeouts and errors. The money spent on Soto could get several players and fill more holes instead of one set of very heavy financial handcuffs.

[@SP-dw9gi]

Why would soto remain with a bunch of losers. Clean house guys

[@AshMorton]

Soto is great, but he’s not the best in the game. Use the money to get 3 really good players.
