Juan Soto Receives Mixed Reception in Yankees Reunion

Juan Soto, the newly signed outfielder for the New York Mets, had a heartfelt reunion with former teammates and manager Aaron Boone during the Mets' final spring training game against the Yankees. Soto, who left the Yankees for a record 15-year, $765 million contract with the Mets, enjoyed catching up with old friends despite receiving a mixed reaction from fans. Boone humorously remarked that Soto looked 'terrible' in Mets colors, but expressed appreciation for Soto's contributions to the Yankees during his previous season, which included leading the team to the World Series. Soto acknowledged the emotional significance of the meeting and appeared optimistic about the upcoming season with the Mets. As the rivalry intensifies with six scheduled matchups between the two teams during the regular season, both Soto and Boone have emphasized the mutual respect that remains despite the competitive shift. The anticipation for the Subway Series is heightened, promising exciting encounters ahead.
