Yankees fans chant to Soto

Juan Soto's performance with the New York Yankees has been outstanding, as he boasts a .299 batting average, 37 home runs, and a 1.034 OPS, helping the team maintain a slim lead in the AL East. During a recent game against the Colorado Rockies, fans chanted for Soto to stay with the team, prompting him to refer them to general manager Brian Cashman for contract negotiations. Soto, who turned down a $440 million extension from the Washington Nationals in 2022, is expected to command a deal exceeding $500 million in the offseason. His successful season has also solidified his status alongside Aaron Judge, who has been equally impressive with 51 home runs. The Yankees have not yet engaged in contract talks with Soto, making his impending free agency a focal point for fans and analysts alike. Both Soto and Judge have expressed appreciation for the support from fans, emphasizing that the final decision lies with Soto and what he deems best for his future.
