Juanco Soto's Free Agency Sparks MLB Activity

Juan Soto's impending decision on his free agency is set to significantly impact the MLB landscape, with major teams like the New York Yankees, New York Mets, Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Toronto Blue Jays vying for his signature. Soto is likely to command one of the largest contracts in baseball history, and his signing is expected to trigger a flurry of activity in the free-agent market, particularly for other outfielders like Teoscar Hernandez. Hernandez's market has been stagnant, but it is anticipated to heat up post-Soto signing, as teams like the Red Sox and Yankees may pivot to him if they miss out on Soto. Meanwhile, the Mets are also pursuing Soto aggressively and may look to enhance their pitching rotation by trading for Zack Littell. The winter meetings are expected to be one of the most active in recent memory, with Soto's decision expected to be announced around that time, potentially reshaping various rosters in the league. As the offseason progresses, all eyes remain on Soto, whose choice will ripple through MLB free agency.
